Even though Boston has more talent, you can tell even just watching a little bit of Charlotte games that those guys actually play for each other, play with energy/hustle and have fun doing so.
A stark contrast to here where frankly, most of the time this team is just boring, stagnant and mediocre. It's not just the wins-losses, but when you see Celtics games do you get the "fun feeling" you usually got watching some of the previous Celtics seasons even against tough opponents (like with Isaiah Thomas and our "underdog crew"). Or even last year, bubble included?
Charlotte is kind of reminding me of that 2016-2017 Celtics team. Not to say they'll reach the ECF, but they are a fun team to watch and could make some noise. As others have mentioned, LaMelo has looked a lot better than expected and it's helping the others too given his skillset. If Charlotte manages to avoid BKN/PHI/MIL first round, I could see them winning a playoff series actually.
