TNT’s ‘Inside the NBA’ crew leaning toward Celtics in first-round clash with Nets

Boston’s odds look good against Brooklyn according to this crew.

The Boston Celtics might not have the best player on the floor in a matchup with the Brooklyn Nets in the first round of the 2022 NBA East Playoffs, but they do have more depth and better defense. The hosts of the TNT NBA game-night show “Inside The NBA” recently broke down the various aspects of the first-round meeting between the two Atlantic Division juggernauts.

How will the two teams fare against one another? Hosts Charles Barkley, Shaquille O’Neal, Ernie Johnson, and Kenny Smith traded their perspectives on how Brooklyn and Boston will do when they finally take the court this Sunday afternoon.

Watch the clip embedded below courtesy of the House of Highlights YouTube channel to get a bead on how the Celtics are seen against Durant, Irving, and the Nets in the first round of the 2022 postseason.
