What Game 1 of Brooklyn Nets-Boston Celtics can tell us about the rest of the series with Ajayi Browne

What can Game 1 of the series between the Brooklyn Nets and Boston Celtics potentially tell us about what might happen with the rest of the first-round series of the 2022 NBA Eastern Conference playoffs tell us about the rest of the games Boston will play against Brooklyn?

On this episode of the CLNS Media "Celtics Lab" podcast, we brought on Ajayi Browne of Nets Daily to dissect the buzzer-beating win and see how much of what we saw in Game 1 that could have bearing on the contests to follow in the NBA Finals-like atmosphere we saw on Sunday afternoon.

Will Kyrie continue to be a lights-out marksman from everywhere on the floor? Can the Celtics keep Kevin Durant from becoming one as well? Will Boston anticipate Brooklyn's adjustments in Game 2? And when do we think each team's bigs will be back, anyway? 

Check out the clip embedded above to hear all Browne and your usual hosts Justin Quinn, Cameron Tabatabaie, and Alex Goldberg have to say about what they expect to see in the series moving forward.

We even have a healthy debate on whether your 2022 Kia Defensive Player of the Year Marcus Smart truly deserved the honor (spoiler: he does).
