Celtics (49-24) at Hornets (39-34) Game #74 3/29/26

[slamtheking]

good half.  wilted a bit down the stretch of the half but doing much better than I expected with Brown and White out.

[Neurotic Guy]

Good half though a rough last five minutes or so. PP and JT need to do it again over the next 24.

I do love Jordan Walsh?s energy.  Sam heating up would be nice.

Trying to watch it on my phone while having dinner and hoping nobody else notices looks like JT had a great first half and they?ve started the third well

[SCeltic34]

Walsh really struggling with his shot but the effort his there.  And his length and feistiness was causing Lamelo problems.

JT is on a heater?. Is this his breakout game for the season?

[SCeltic34]

Strong game from Q.

Hauser shot has fallen off a cliff

Hopefully his breakout game.  Looks a lot like the JT of old.  His first basket was a strong drive and two handed dunk.  Has made layups, pull up 3's, mid-range jumpers.  Doing pretty much everything well on both ends of the floor this game.

[Neurotic Guy]

That?s a shot Sam shouldn?t miss.

Q playing great. JT great but as he tires will see if he stops driving. His midrange has been great.

Would be nice to finish 3rd strong.

Charlotte on a bit of a run

I want the win but I also selfishly want Tatum to get to 40 lol

[Neurotic Guy]

14 pt cushion heading to the 4th. Not feeling comfortable (as usual) but nice to be up double digits. Keep it up Cs.   

[SCeltic34]

Intesresting lineup to start the 4th.  Nice shot Hugo.

[SCeltic34]

Small lineup not working.  C's gotta get it together.  JT cold to start the quarter.  Get him the ball, let them double team, then move it.

[Neurotic Guy]

Uh oh. Too much time left to be slowing it up and heaving threes. Time to go back to Pritchard and see if he?s got another big quarter in him.
