Brooklyn Nets vs Boston Celtics: Storylines
You don’t have to be a basketball connoisseur to tell that the Brooklyn Nets are the team to beat in the Eastern Conference and it’s not even close. There’s not much you could do against Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, and James Harden; and it seems like the only thing that could hold them back is an injury.
The Boston Celtics sure know one thing or two about injuries. They’ve struggled to stay healthy for most of the season and will be without star guard/forward Jaylen Brown until next season. Jayson Tatum has a lot of weight on his shoulders right now but that didn’t seem to bother him when he scored 50 points to secure a playoff berth.
