I’m guessing they put Miller on Tatum, looking forward to seeing how he stacks up. But then again, I could see the refs calling 2 fouls on him in the first 30 seconds to end the experiment.

Tatum will get his superstar calls from the refs to put the rookie in his place.

Thousands of celtics fans will be on hand to witness the game

For some reason I think we win tonight

“We’re Playing Charlotte on NBA League Pass on a Monday and Ain’t Nobody F***ing Watching”
The Jayson Tatum quote would normally be used as bulletin board material for most teams, but I’m sure our Boston welcome wagon will be out for the Celtics home away from home game.

Free 3s, free drives to the lane, giving up the fight in the first, massage at halftime, standing ovations, we’ll even start your home arena chants for you unprompted

let me guess, Hornets hang close with LaMelo and Brandon Miller hitting some good shots in the middle part of the 1st quarter. late in the quarter Boston goes on a 10-0 run to lead by 7. then they score the first 4 points of the 2nd quarter and never lead by single digits for the rest of the game. the intensity of competitiveness evaporates in the first 5 minutes of the second half and the Celts coast to a gentleman's 25pt victory shooting 46% from 3?

i'm going with a small halftime lead for Charlotte, followed by a Boston 47-15 3rd quarter, and then one of our 6 NBA-caliber players goes down with an injury down 30

This game is virtually guaranteed to not be a good time

Tatum going to score 80 and PJ and Hayward combine for 4

They randomly got taken to the wire by the Grizzles. Maybe cause of our more rested legs we have a chance to lose by 15 instead of 25

No Derrick White or Horford tonight for Boston.

won't matter. pritchard will destroy whoever is guarding him.   tatum will do his usual 44 points on 14-18 from the field

Is Miles Bridges starting tonight?

No because that would be a good idea. Cliff doesn’t like those

Clearly a trap game for the Celtics, easy W

We're about to get beat so bad they're gonna send our entire franchise to SlamBall.

Da** we’re gonna get to see some actually fantastic offense and defense tonight. Probably not by the Hornets, but it’ll be on display…

Yet another home game for an opposing team in Charlotte, that’s the theme this past week

Tatum playing a league pass game on Monday in Charlotte with nobody watching, what could go wrong today

I'd be shocked if the Celtics don't beat us by at least 40

Biggest crowd of the year . . .75% Boston

I am starting to think half our guys are getting paid on the side to throw ever other game

Celtics announcers said "a rare 3 second call". Clearly they don't watch the hornets

Gordon has a little more pep in his step tonight

I need just 1 night where an opposing role player doesn't shoot 90% from 3 lol

I was going to say how we were doing a better job at not letting Boston shoot easy 3s, then Payton Pritchard happens

Lmaooo the crypto scammer

Must be nice to have backups to the backup knockdown threes...

You want a wide open 3? Play against the Hornets, we got you

Pritchard the next random white guy to have a historic night in Charlotte

If we actually defended he might miss one.

Pritchard had 12 points off the bench in Q1. That’s tough to do. The difference between the Celtics and Hornets is about the same as the distance between Pritchard and Ish.

What gold is 5 people standing in the paint while the entire Boston team is on the 3point line

time to initiate the ol' patented Dare 'em to Shoot the Open 3 Defense

Pritchard is the exact archetype for "random player who goes off on the Hornets"

I gotta ask — when we get open 3s, they’re known as “future rebounds,” but when we give up open 3s, they go in 99.9% of the time. Reason why?

Perhaps we should leave someone on Prichard seeing as though he's hit 6 threes in less than a half

Prichard is the most NBA2k generated looking f'er ever.  And he's going to score 30pts on 12 shots because we can't guard a small, unathletic 3pt specialist.

Why is there Celtics fans right behind our bench lol.

Was a fun first 10 minutes

Tatum is about to drop 60

That stat he said about Tatum last year against the Hornets in 4 games where he averaged 40 a night is all we needed to know. He’s better this year.

I think the refs letting him get hacked is some nba vendetta against Lamelo for how the ball family has been a thorn in the nba’s side

I'll pray to any god that will make boston have all of their teams be godawful at the same time

We can’t guard Tatum

There are so many Celtics fans in the crowd lol

Gordon Hayward looks like he does not care

Every game since miles has come back has had insanely lucky bounces for the opponents while everything for us rims out. I see what ur doing universe and I respect it

Peyton Pritchard is the black steph curry  (MY NOTE:  And Steph Curry is the, what, white Payton Pritchard?  Huh?)

There’s nothing you can do to stop Tatum from scoring. Such a great player. He just gets better every year.

Agreed. Just wish we could stop Pritchard

The Celtics are so ridiculously stacked with talent it’s kind of insane. They just have zero weak spots on the roster. I don’t think anyone can match them talent wise from the top to bottom of the roster.

Ball goes on the floor with 5 guys nearby.    2 dive on the floor.    Guess which color jerseys they have on

If we cool Tatum down, we have a chance. Porzingis and Jrue seems to be off today. Brown is dumb as hell, we have a chance if we stop Tatum!

Is Joe Mazula planning to rob a bank

Tatum pretty much only shoots 3's.

At least we held Tatum to under 30 in the first half

Does Gordon even care?

Nah lol. Waiting on his trade.

I'd say being down by only 11 at the half, against what is the best team in the NBA currently, is pretty good.

Why does Tatum hate the Hornets so much

Hayward’s gonna get traded and he plays like he knows it

I forgot Svi was on the Celtics. Remember him taking a ton of shots for us late last season

Hayward playing D like he’s in a game of HORSE against his daughter

Let's go Celtics chants should start in the next 30 minutes

TRADE HAYWARD FOR SOMEONE WHO CARES

Watching Gordon Hayworst makes my eyes bleed. I’ve never seen a vet with such poor decision making. Total loser

I hope Gordon Hayward knows mandarin

Gordon’s shooting privilege has been revoked.

Gordon Hayward is so bad. Not sure if it’s age or what but he’s been a non factor like 90% of games

I’d play literally anyone over Gordon

Pritchard is not even a main threat on offense and he’s still really good.

Gordon still playing for the Celtics . He’s their third best player rn

Idk how but we are hanging around wow

Making Pritchard look like an all star

Sixers can have Gordon for a WaWa

Honestly they could probably win by just giving it to Tatum on every single play and ISO.

We get the game so close every time then we say “Ehhh, didn’t wanna win anyways”

Can somebody explain why half of our “fans” are actually fans of the opposing team

I’ll consider it a win if we just lead ONCE during this fourth quarter. That’s all I want

How do you get spin cycled by pritchard

Losing the minutes vs the Boston hate lineup <<<<

home court cheering for Pritchard makes me angry.

This unit is getting whooped by Boston's scrubs

Getting lit up by their bench

Gordon's doppleganger

Just fire this dumb a** coach and trade everybody

The crowd cheering for Pritchard is the cherry on top

Love how the crowd is louder for the Boston npcs than Charlotte. Team is truly a joke and you hate to see it

Are we ever going to be good? Like not even great or like a finals team. Like are we ever going to be like a team that wins more than they lose? I’ve never rooted for a good basketball team.

Gordon just casually watching his guy shoot a open three

why didn't we keep Svi?

Joey Maz selling tf outta this game for the Celtics with no timeout during this run

I know yall saw Jrue push off TWICE. he missed those because ball dont lie

Lamelo is the worst defender I had the (un) pleasure of watching

bro we had to watch plumlee for two seasons

Time for Lamelo to clamp up Tatum

Not very Mamba Mentality of you there Jayson

Celtics just went an entire quarter without being called for a foul

These scrubs can’t hang with us!

I want this win so much. F*** half of our home crowd being Boston fans. Screw them all.

NBA league offices irrate that they've blatantly fixed this game but the Celtics refuse to hit their FTs

Refs never call anything on Tatum wtf

Bro God bless Jaylen Brown lmao

Jayden Brown the king of stealing a paycheck. My role model

miles bridges  He might be a felon but he’s our felon!!

Trash refereeing. Absolute trash.

Oh great if Tatum gets the inbound it’s an automatic foul if you’re in a 5 mile radius

I HATE HAYWARD SO MUCH

Live by Hayward die by Hayward

I hate the Celtics so much this is so funny they lost to us lmao, load manage this game you bums

I'm stuck on the Celtics stream.. they whining about the clock not stopping

timer def ran long there :S good for us

This one felt especially good after those Monday night comments from Tatum

I'm not trying to blow this out of proportion but this probably means we're now the best team in the NBA.

73-9 is still on the table
