I turned off Celtics-Hornets at 113-102, and just finished the comeback. Boston wins in OT after being down 12 w/ 6 left
Jayson Tatum was absurd, dropping 41/7/8. Ridiculous shot-making. Beyond that, has gotten excellent reading weak-side defender for cross-corner kickout passes pic.twitter.com/OX7xwZPUp2 – 12:17 AM

Udoka on not having Brown involved w/Tatum on the final play: The goal was to pick on Ball, so if they involved Jaylen then they’re bringing over one of Charlotte’s best defenders. By using Smart or someone else, they’re trying to switch the weaker defender onto JT – 9:57 PM

I mistyped and deleted the first tweet: Charlotte’s MILES BRIDGES and Golden State’s Stephen Curry were just named East and West Player of the Week.
Bridges just posted the first consecutive 30-point games of his career to help the Hornets to the first 3-0 start in team history – 3:33 PM

ICYMI: our scouting report on Kok Yat from October 6th. Yat is a cousin JT Thor but a more fluid athlete. A potential sleeper for the 2022 draft and is currently projected as an early seconder on our 2023 mock.

I don’t want this pass from Robert Williams to be lost in the shuffle. Haven’t seen too much of this from Rob so far this season. C’s need to do a lot more cutting off Rob & let him find them pic.twitter.com/I2QcFgzNEs – 1:32 PM
