5 rational thoughts about the Celtics’ comfortable win in Charlotte

Five points about last night’s road win over the Hornets, where the Celtics took the lead midway in the first quarter and never looked back.

1. Kemba and Terry

We learned last night that Charlotte fans really, truly love Kemba Walker. With good reason: he’s the franchise’s all-time leader in every significant stat category and a genuine good guy. Kemba was moved by the tribute video, and perhaps a bit nervous – he was 0-6 in the first half. But he got it together in the third quarter with 11 points (3-5 from the arc) and 4 assists, helping the Celtics pull away.
