The Boston Celtics defeated the Washington Wizards 118-100 Tuesday night in game 1 of the NBA's Play in Tournament and their reward a matchup with the Brooklyn Nets in the 1st round of the NBA Playoffs. Jayson Tatum scored 50 points in that game while Kemba Walker added 29 points and Tristan Thompson had 12 off the bench. Now the Celtics starting Saturday night at 8PM ET will face a Brooklyn Nets team that went 3-0 against the Celtics this season winning by score of 123-95 on Christmas Day, 121-109 on March 11th and 109-104 on April 23rd. Obviously this series is totally different then what we saw in the regular season as during the regular season not one of those matchups saw the Celtics face the Nets with the Nets having Harden, Durant and Kyrie all on the floor together. Meanwhile the Celtics had Jaylen Brown in the Christmas and March 11th games but will not have Jaylen Brown for the remainder of this season as we reported on our last show meaning if the Celtics are gonna somehow get past the Brooklyn Nets they will need to do so without Jaylen Brown. So on tonights show we will preview that series with the Brooklyn Nets. We will discuss was this is a good idea for the Celtics to actually fight for the right to enter the NBA Playoffs as some fans feel with the loss of Jaylen Brown it was a foregone conclusion you would not beat either Brooklyn of Philadelphia in round 1 so would Boston had been better off losing the Play In Tournament and going into the Lottery then playing a few more games and now having to accept losing to former teammate Kyrie Irving and his new team? What about the actual schedule for this series. We will announce it for those who follow our show but are not members of our group. Also what are the NBA Experts saying as of right now for this series is anyone giving Boston a chance to win this series or is it all Brooklyn and all in 4 games. We will discuss
