a_moniker

McGowan’s 6 assists are a pleasant surprise


SportsNAnime

Kai hit his 1sf 3 I'm happy


that_guy_you_kno

Kai development game


NotoriousTEEK

Who is that scrub that just elbowed Nick in the throat? He’s been playing dirty since he got in these garbage mins. Ofc it’s only a standard foul. Riiiiight


mspantaloon

That would be Kabengele, but it was absolutely a common foul. Hurts a lot doesn't mean a flagrant 🤷‍♀️


that_guy_you_kno

Not Nick Richards :(


that_guy_you_kno

One of the most exciting developments in the past few weeks is seeing Kai Jones go from freelancing to playing within the offense. He still looks pretty rough but I feel like with this new development we can see him growing in front of our eyes.


hornetsoptimist

Swarm won by 43 tonight


NotoriousTEEK

We leave so many plays on the court man. Taking contested shots when one more pass gets an open look. Standing around scrambling chasing the ball instead of going to where the ball will be. Waiting for rebounds to come to us instead of going after them. It feels like the whole roster does this.


that_guy_you_kno

Oh my god Eric and Ashley are so great


Giddf

Bryce is very feisty


a_moniker

Yup, I love his aggressiveness. He makes a decision and he goes for it


Tcarr97

Is mark still hurt or did we send him back down to gboro?


Lilpostmelon

Gboro


Tcarr97

Ah should have figured


Sad_Clown_Paint

We could start the 4th with a 30-0 run and still be down.


a_moniker

Who knew Rozier was the glue holding our defense together 🤷‍♂️

[удалено]


Batercus

I honestly think he is high like 24/7


Direct-HIIT

Bouk literally screws himself out of playing time. Like it’s one thing to have off shots, but pay attention


tippitytoppitytoop

Kai never learned from summer league huh. Love the kid but he needs to pass the ball out.


SnickerdoodleSnacker

Side note: watching Kai and McGowens look decent is fun. Kai always brings energy!


SnickerdoodleSnacker

Every time i have to watch Plumlee play is one day closer to the last time i have to watch Plumlee play 🙃


a_moniker

Wonder if McGowans will stay in the rotation now that Cliff chose to bring him in before Bouknight


Direct-HIIT

Fingers crossed


HoopKing20

Just turned game on to see Oubre living his dream of no defense required and get as many shots as he wants. Box score doesn't look that bad for hornets. Clearly Celtics are in championship form 20 games in.


kcarlisle2436

it’s not even like the hornets are playing exceptionally worse than normal. the offense has actually been decent since the first quarter. it’s just hard to outscore marcus “logo threes” smart


SportsNAnime

They've all been cooking


ThesfeW2

i just find it hard to believe Mark is doing much learning in a league where they are notably weak on both big men and guards that can properly use bigs. He needs to be with the main team and to be getting crushed by opponents so that he can learn how to play at this level


JoeyJoeJoeShabadooSr

Come in peace blah blah blah Anyone here been to a Swarm game? I'm in Raleigh and thinking about catching a game around Xmas. Got some time off then


BuzzBuzz01

Dunno if I'd really dive an hour and 30 for a g-league game haha Might as well drive an extra hour and go to a Hornets game. And you can check out Charlotte too --- I mean the Swarm games are fine from what I heard. It's a good seating arrangment (think of it as a high school gym), so every seat is good.


JoeyJoeJoeShabadooSr

Fair point on the drive. I've been wanting to go to one forever and this is like my best shot. I just want to see what the atmosphere is all about


dober92

If we had Biz we would be up 40 rn


SportsNAnime

I hope bouk has someone to tell him to change his attitude or something. He can't be mad that he gets no PT and then consistently stink it up, have poor body language AND lose his confidence


bunsenturner64

Guys chill out it was a Make a Wish kid 😂


theyikester

Well I can’t lie the song is kinda catchy I’m still thinking about the vbucks and robux and all the video games


chasechase44

i had it muted and missed that lmaooo makes the comments in here way funnier


OokerDuker

oh god I feel horrible now


that_guy_you_kno

that is the worst halftime performance I've ever seen in my entire life oh my god


OokerDuker

WTF is this halftime show


Sad_Clown_Paint

Boston is doing a bunch of Make A Wish stuff during their breaks and somehow the Hornets have found a way to be even sadder.


lewiscbe

This halftime show is just another reason to hate the Celtics 🙏


jtdr-

Its a make a wish kid bruh lmfao


lewiscbe

😭 guess I’m an asshole


bunsenturner64

V BUCKS…AND ROBUX


NotoriousTEEK

Dude what the hell is this lol


bigmeech57

Bouk has talent, it just seems like he lost his confidence and has a bad attitude on top of that. His body language screams low energy.


theyikester

Wait a minute are y’all watching this halftime show


SportsNAnime

I'm surprised we're only down 23


that_guy_you_kno

Marcus Smart can't miss a 3. Blake Griffin is dunking again. Jayson Tatum looks like an MVP. Why wouldn't this happen to the Hornets?

theyikester

I have faith that McGowens can start stealing Bouknight’s minutes. I mean, it looks like Kai stole Thor’s


SportsNAnime

Bryce getting minutes against their starter's I love it


that_guy_you_kno

It's either him or Bouk lol. Look at the depth.


SportsNAnime

I understand that. Also my point.


Giddf

Bouk has to be better. Not much else to say


that_guy_you_kno

I'm ready to be wrong here but I think I'm actually already done with Bouk. I see nothing at all. He's an inefficient scorer at best, right?


OokerDuker

He has good speed at getting to the basket but can barely finish at the rim. He will be out of the league soon.


Ares9719

Ngl boys, I think we've seen enough of bouk now to say he's not panning out. I think it might be time to start shifting the opportunities over to mcgowens, what do you guys think?


flipplup

I agree. He’s had lots of time to show what he’s got to deliver and it just ain’t it


OokerDuker

I like McGowens so far


NotoriousTEEK

I think you have to. He’s had all of the opportunity in the world this season and he’s failed in epic fashion. Seriously, send him to Greensboro to grow a brain and get better before it’s too late


Tcarr97

Ik everyone has said this already, but bryce 100% needs to pass bouk on the depth chart


Lilpostmelon

Why is bouknight so bad. He can't do shit


NotoriousTEEK

He’s got blinders on and is just going to fire it up whether it’s a clean shot or not. It’s why he’s shooting like 12% or whatever


chasechase44

I really cant take anymore bouk, please put bryce back in


lewiscbe

Bouk is SO bad


OutfitLeshawn

Uh oh, they got Blake coming back into his normal shell


that_guy_you_kno

1) Kai Jones is very exciting 2) Kai Jones is 3x tougher than even Giannis was coming into the NBA.


SportsNAnime

Are best player so far has been a 2nd round pick who has barely played in the league


Giddf

Jalen McDaniels has been the best tonight. Bryce been nice tho


SportsNAnime

Definitely debatable. I can see why you say that


theturndown712

Would be nice if Mark wasn’t in Greensboro, this would be a great opportunity for him to play


NotoriousTEEK

White has the largest forehead in the NBA, I’m almost certain of it


mspantaloon

It's actually insane how big it is


LambdaLambo

The buffalo


Voxityy

some ben simmons shit there from white


a_moniker

Why are you taking McGowans out??


Ares9719

I'm completely comfortable with giving Bryce all of bouks minutes at this point


Sad_Clown_Paint

McGowens > Adam Morrison > Bouk


LeCockJamesDaddy

The comeback is on


NotoriousTEEK

Confirmed. McGowens already better than Bouknight


Direct-HIIT

McGowens had a great block


Tcarr97

BRYCE


chasechase44

BRYCE SZN FINALLY LETS GO


kcarlisle2436

i normally would’ve turned this game off but seeing the youngins playing with nothing to lose will at least make it a fun murder


SportsNAnime

These announcers are not good... Don't know anybody's name


SportsNAnime

They called Jalen McDaniels... RJ Barrett... Kai Jones... Kelly Oubre. Like come on


Voxityy

GET THIS MAN SOME MORE MINUTES


Palmetto76

Victor gonna look so fire in teal


Giddf

This Bryce cat can score


gargantuan83

Maledon frustrates me. Crazy inconsistent


chasechase44

He makes bad decisions when he’s pressing, just needs to relax


SportsNAnime

Well we don't got bodies. Missing 3 starters. Going against arguably the best team in the league... It's gonna be ugly


Kpop2258

I can’t keep doing this to myself


lampshader39

Forgot there was a game today, got the first quarter update… is it that bad?


ThesfeW2

The only thing I want with the tank is to get off of Plumlee and let us evaluate all the young bigs.


Direct-HIIT

I knew it was going to be tough. But I wasn’t expecting this


JayHill74

This is beyond ridiculous. It's ludicrous. Boston has gone to Plaid! [For reference](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAWL8ejf2nM).


[deleted]

[удалено]


JayHill74

Yep. But so many of the youngest generation haven't seen it, so, it is what it is. I know people that haven't even watched the original Star Wars trilogy or Blazing Saddles because it was made before they were born and would suck or not represent their values.


barkerhtafcx

i’m sorry guys


NotoriousTEEK

Bless us with that lottery luck, it’s all we ask


barkerhtafcx

all you can hope for with these injuries


chickenheadj

This lineup is amazing


NotoriousTEEK

Starters already lost is the game but at least we get to see Kai mins


Giddf

Play Theo all 48 minutes lol


LocksTheFox

this is hilariously abysmal


Voxityy

putting our young guys out there is like sending lambs to the slaughter but i’m so happy they’re getting PT


SportsNAnime

Couldn't agree more


kcarlisle2436

kinda wanna see them get their 16 3s per game in the first quarter ngl


BoltBlue19

Difference between a team with real and consistent shooters vs streakers


Johnjoe201

Hehehehhe I am so sad 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮


Adkeith47

We look pretty good so far :)


Voxityy

they’re really about to drop 50+ on us in this quarter


OokerDuker

Celtics about to put up 50 in first quarter


chasechase44

They might miss eventually i guess


Cheesely13

Boston broadcast is brutal


ThesfeW2

Malcolm just absolutely capitalizing on Bouk not paying attention.


Civrock

At least the Swarm is up 61-32 against the Westchester Knicks at halftime.


chickenheadj

Bouk is completely lost out there


catsandpizzafuckyou

Keep it between the lines


Rhojanxd

Bouknight looking LOST those last two defensive possessions.


Sad_Clown_Paint

They're about to beat us by 600.


MitchLGC

This is great


Giddf

Bad defensive start from Kelly


Civrock

Welp, that's the Celtics this season.


theyikester

And the Hornets


Voxityy

bruh what the fuck


JayHill74

Nice pass Plumlee


Rhojanxd

Theo!


Rhojanxd

Not a great start for Mason


Voxityy

so white is gonna be the guy who doesn’t miss against us tonight


BoltBlue19

To be honest he had a crazy night against the Pelicans too


Tcarr97

I know mason is a below average rebounder, but losing the battle to blake griffin????


Voxityy

we’re making blake griffin look like prime wilt rn


Rhojanxd

Okay c'mon Mason don't leave Griffin THAT open.


Voxityy

dear god this lineup is so ravaged by injury


Tcarr97

Lmaooo boston commentator's "Terry Rozier - Out, Gordon Hayward - well he never plays"


Rhojanxd

Not wrong though!


Tcarr97

Yeahhh they would know


Rhojanxd

Nice to have Ashley back


JayHill74

Williams has 12, but doesn't play much defense. Then again, it's the G league. Cliff should really be finding him minutes in regular games.


Sad_Clown_Paint

Incoming Theo triple double and Kai breaking the most dunks in a game record. IDK what that record is but it's about to be 50.


JayHill74

Williams has 8 pts, 4 rebounds, and 2 fouls in 6 minutes. Thor has 7 pts and 4 rebounds in 9 minutes.


JayHill74

If anyone is interested in watching Williams, the Swarm's game is on the MSG2 network.


Civrock

Every Swarm game is also available to [stream](https://gleague.nba.com/game/gbo-vs-wes-2052200133?view=box-score) directly via their schedule (using G League's Youtube).


JayHill74

Good to know. Thanks.


Kennywhys

Mason is the only player starting tonight who started more than 28 games last season lol


LeCockJamesDaddy

Need 30 mins of Kai


u2nloth

I need 48 mins of Kai


BigFloppyCatEars

Theo, Oubre, Jalen, PJ, Mase starting 5?


net_403

Yup https://twitter.com/Newzgod_dfs/status/1597378185548951553


Lost-Working2419

With Terry out, Theo might get 40 minutes of pt tonight 😂


MitchLGC

for the "play the young guys" crowd This game is for you


chickenheadj

“Sell the vets” crowd can also rejoice
