The Celtics’ Dominant Game 1 Finals Win and What to Expect from Dallas in Game 2. Plus, Is Dan Hurley the Right Fit for the Lakers?

Logan and Raja discuss how the Celtics blew out the Mavs in Game 1 of the NBA Finals, Boston’s effective defensive schemes against Luka and Kyrie, and how Jaylen Brown stepped up to meet the moment (1:44). Along the way, they react to Kristaps Porzingis’s explosive return from injury and the major impact he has on both sides of the ball when he’s on the floor (33:43). Later, they briefly unpack the two front-runners for the Lakers’ head-coaching vacancy—JJ Redick and Dan Hurley—and what each hire could mean for the team moving forward (47:45). Finally, the guys close with their Real Ones of the Week (52:14).
