    Bill Simmons in absolute shambles watching “the best starting 5 in the history of the NBA” lose to the fucking Hornets shooting 44% from the field and 33% from 3 and having 11 less FTs

  2. Just looking at the boxscore, I’ve never seen both teams have this many +20 and -20 players in a game that ended so close.

  3. KaLdapussydestroyer

    Celtics never called a timeout towards the end when hornets when on a 9-0 run with 2 time outs left.

    Jrue misses two clutch free throws

    Drew up a 3 in a tie game and in the bonus with 7 seconds left, tatum held on to the ball and passed to sam hauser for a bail out shot which he bricked

    Took out kristaps with no paint protection, hornets scored 6 of the last 9 points in the paint.

    Game goes OT, payton pritchard got targeted in every possession and played every minute in overtime except the final minute.

    Tatum got fouled and misses game tying freethrows

    Wow what a choke joke from the coach to the players

  4. candypettitte

    Is this the best starting five in NBA history?

  5. CatfishJohnson

    Did Mazz just write “give up” on the whiteboard during that final timeout? What was the play?

  6. Imsortofabigdeal

    Lamelo has that takeover gene and that’s what sets him apart. You can criticize his weaknesses but you can’t teach a guy to carry the team like he did tonight. What a game, and well earned.

  7. PumpkinHead555

    Hornets gotta trade Rozier immediately and start that Lamelo, Miller, Hayward, Bridges and Williams lineup permanently. Thats a lot of size, defense and shooting…

  8. thecollector__v3

    Jaylen Brown is going to prevent this Celtics team from ever winning a championship.

  9. BizzaroMatthews

    LaMelo is Bill Simmons’ father-in-law

    Also, MARK WILLYOUMARRYME WILLIAMS

  10. Barely scrapping by Santi Aldama followed by getting beat up by Miles Bridges. This is what the NBA is all about.

  11. OokerDuker

    Refs did everything in their power to try to make sure the Celtics got the W. Too bad Celtics can’t hit free throws and couldn’t stop the Bridges haymaker for 3.

  12. lamelo needs to get the respect he deserves man. he’s been phenomenal after that slow start to the season

  13. pikajewijewsyou

    Why did so much tick off after the foul after tatums missed free throw? They didn’t even bother to check to make sure it was right. Looked like it was off by at least a full second

  14. Man I am so jealous of the Hornets announcers they’re so fun

  15. Pretty sure Brian Scalabrine is still out there somewhere bitching about those 2 seconds lol.

  16. Lamelo really hit them with that “get the ambulance but not for me” lmao

  17. growsonwalls

    This game was entertaining and the Hornets announcers are amazing. So hype.

  18. PrestigeWorldWide993

    After Tatum’s comments about Charlotte, this win feels so damn good.

  19. ACCBAN4TRUTHTELLING

    Guess Lamelo got used to the ankle braces, been on a tear lately. Just happy to get a win after the abysmal start to the season.

  20. realzequel

    I blame Jaylen Brown, 5-15, -20, wtf? After going 5-16 against Memphis, 2 of the worst teams in the NBA. He is *so* overrated, give me a wing with a consistent 15-20 ppg over someone who puts up 30 then shits the bed for 2 straight games. He lost us this game and almost lost us the Memphis game. Oh yeah, and 7-18 against NY too, 3/4 of the last games. Oh yeah, and 3/20 from 3pt those 3 games.

  21. Smelldicks

    Gg Charlotte. We really struggle against big teams.

  22. Lamelo 32/7/8 his last 8 games on 50/45/89 splits💰💰💰

  23. The Celtics had a 4 white man rotation at one point, and those guys nearly took the comeback away from the Hornets. One of them was Svi fucking Mykhailuk

  24. Wild_Raise_869

    I scrolled through a couple dozen comments and no mention of Mark Williams. Might be the most underrated player in the league right now. Only real ones know.

    Edit: scrolled through them all and no mention of Williams. Bunch of casuals smh.

  25. another_newAccount_

    God why are Celtics fans so butthurt. Y’all are going to the conference finals at least, calm down and let us have a night to celebrate. Jesus Christ.

  26. archarbor

    I know the Celtics were gassed but that closing Hornets lineup looked tough.

  27. Fuck I hate watching Tatum play, holy shit. Has the ball for the last possession of a tied game, dribbles out the clock, does nothing and then chucks the ball to someone 10′ behind the line with 2 seconds to go. WTF.
