They also need to commit to play team defense. The Celtics play the best when the scoring is spread out and no one player has to do too much. The Celtics best games this season have been games in which they have had 26 or more assists per game. The Hornets are averaging 26. 9 assists per game and had 39 assists on Sunday while the Celtics average 23. 2 assists per game and had just 18 assists on Sunday. The Celtics must commit to moving the ball and to playing together. Focus - The Celtics don’t seem to be focused in recent games. They turn the ball over way too much.

The Hornets are in 8th place and 1 game ahead of Indiana (9th) and 3 games ahead of Washington (10th). 5 games behind both Boston (6th) and Miami (7th). They are 3-7 in their last 10 games and 14-18 on the road. Jayson Tatum missed Tuesday’s game due to the ankle impingement that has been bothering him. Robert Williams has missed 7 straight games with a sore knee, including Tuesday’s game. Both are expected to play in this game. Kemba Walker missed Tuesday’s game and will miss at least this game due to a side strain. I’m going to guess that Fournier starts in place of Kemba as he did against the Thunder.

Rebound - Rebounding takes effort and desire and when the Celtics have both of those on the boards, that carries through to the other parts of their game. The Hornets average 43. 6 rebounds per game while the Celtics average 44. 3 rebounds per game. The Celtics were out-rebounded 46-41 on Sunday. The Celtics must commit to give effort to get rebounds. They can’t score without the ball and they can’t give up extra possessions to the opponent by failing to rebound and expect to win. Play Team Ball - The Celtics play best when they move the ball and find the open man. They have to play TEAM ball and share the ball and no player should try to do too much or play hero ball.
The Hornets average 109. 9 points per game while the Celtics average 111. 9 points per game. The Celtics are 12th with a defensive rating of 111. 3 while the Hornets are 16th with a defensive rating of 111. 7. In Sunday’s game, the Celtics played no defense, allowing the Hornets to shoot 50% from the field and 48. 8% on three pointers. The same thing happened on Tuesday when they allowed a tanking Thunder team break their 14 game losing streak by shooting 48% from the field and 43% from beyond the arc. They must make defense a priority if they want to win this game.
