Celtics visit Jordans Hornets


  

   1st Quarter
    
   Gotta love seeing JT getting to the rack with the finger roll! This studs game has grown immensely, passing up outside shots and getting inside! His talents have blossomed into being a damn good passer out of double teams. So far the Hornets are holding their own, they always play the Celtics tough. When they are on, watch out! Great start in the paint for the Celtics, that's the road to victory right there. 
 
  Hold onto this point in the season Celtics fans, this has been some exciting and well played basketball! Defensively how can you not be excited to watch this team! Reminder defense wins championships! Offensively the ball movement has become a thing of beauty. These guys believe in one another, come playoff time expect great things! 

   2nd Quarter

   Let's give the Wolverine a shout-out, tell me he doesn't deserve consideration for DPOY! Marcus just makes all the right plays on D, a lot of times they are game winning plays! He's the quarterback of this team on defense. He may not get the accolades like Gobert or Giannis but he should be in the conversation. 

  Let's talk MIP, RWill anyone?! His game this season has grown so much! He has a knack of getting the Celtics extra possessions. He's Mr Alley OOP! He passes really well for a big and defensively he can block anything. He's made such a huge jump from last season in his abilities. He should be part of the conversation at the end of the year. 

   3rd Quarter

   Hornets are keeping this game close right now. Who is going to seize control of the game in Green?! It needs to start with the D! Right now the offense is floundering. Just like that Al nails a three, he seems to come up big when you need a bucket. Al's contributions to this team have been immeasurable! 

  JB assuming the big dawg role, hitting a three and now getting to the rack for an and one. When JB attacks no one can stop him! He's like a missile hitting it's target. He brings a graceful brute strength anytime he drives! For all those people who wanted to trade him your nuts. 

   4th Quarter
    
   There needs to be an alternative broadcast, with no commercials. We should have access to audio of the players and coaches during the game without giving away any secrets! It would be fun to get that all access for a team that we love. Plus then no more terrible commercials to sit through! 

   How about JT after putting up 54 vs the Nets, goes on the road and lights up the Hornets for 44. Everyone hear the high praise he received from a Mr Michael Jordan?! Talk about high praise from over of the greatest! As I've said before JT deserves MVP considerations, he's better than Luka and Ja IMO, yet they get more national attention. Well come playoffs when JT is leading the Celtics to success people will finally recognize this young stud!

Did the Celtics Kevin McHale really have a wingspan of 8-feet?

According to many sources, the Celtics Kevin McHale did indeed have an estimated wingspan of 8-feet. One of those sources is Wikipedia, as seen below: Kevin McHale American basketball player DescriptionKevin Edward McHale is an American retired basketball player who played his entire professional career for the Boston Celtics. He is a Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, and is regarded as one of the best power forwards of all time. He was named to the NBA's 50th Anniversary All-Time Team. Wikipedia Born: December 19, 1957 (age 61 years), Hibbing, MN Wingspan: 8′ 0″ Height: 6′ 10″ Spouse: Lynn McHale (m. 1982) NBA draft: 1980, Boston Celtics (Round: 1 / Pick: 3) Hall of fame induction: 1999 Number: 32 (Boston Celtics / Power forward, Center) Kevin was listed at 6'10" tall when he was drafted with the 3rd pick in the 1980 draft. Red Auerbach, in yet another heist, brought in both McHale and center Robert Parish (via trade) prior to the Celtics' 1980-81 Champion

In defense of Marcus Smart

 Let me make it clear first of all that I am totally against making a threat of any kind that even hints at harming, or certainly killing, another human being. Marcus Smart was wrong in doing so in the Celtics loss to the tanking Oklahoma City Thunder , and he deserved the one-game suspension. But to be honest, part of me loved that it occurred. . This type of thing can happen when a player gets to a point "beyond frustration" and is having a bad game. Marcus and his teammates have been under-performing generally - were in the process of losing to a pathetic-and-tanking Thunder team - and Smart was having a bad game . And he let loose verbally at the closest target - an NBA official. Wilt Chamberlain did a similar act versus referee, Earl Strom when Wilt was having his usual tortuous time at the free throw line (per Chicago Tribune's Sam Smith): ''He was in one of those 1-for-13s,'' recalls referee Earl Strom. ''Nothing was getting close. S
