C’s Take a Commanding 2-0 Lead. Plus, Conor Ryan on the Bruins’ Game 1 Win and the Rest of the Series.

Brian reacts to another dominant Celtics win over the Hawks and discusses Derrick White’s great game, Trae Young’s struggles, and Jaylen Brown’s hand (0:15). Then, he chats with The Boston Globe’s Conor Ryan about the Bruins' Game 1 victory over the Florida Panthers on Monday night before looking ahead to the rest of the series (37:30). Brian ends with his Boston Bet of the Week before sharing a quick personal note about a friend of the podcast, Doug Kyed (1:08:45).
