And so it begins. The Brooklyn Nets officially kick off the 2022 playoffs with a chance to steal the ever-important Game 1 from the Boston Celtics while on the road.
It won’t be easy, of course, but the Nets are in a nice rhythm and they have a healthy Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving which gives them a chance against anyone, really.
The Celtics, of course, have been one of the league’s best teams in the second half of the season, fighting their way to the second seed in the East. Led by Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, they have high hopes in not only winning this round but in coming out of the East and making it the Finals.
