Early Playoff Reactions 👀🙌 | Numbers on the Board

Published 2024-04-23
With Kenny in New York on First Take, Pierre, Mike, and Darrick break down the opening games of the playoffs with early reactions. Are the Lakers doomed after losing on a game-winner to go down 2-0 versus the Nuggets? Should the Mavs be worried after a lopsided loss to the Kawhi Leonard-less Clippers? Are the Bucks and Knicks legit threats to knocking the Celtics off? Plus, are the Timberwolves, Thunder, and Cavs being overlooked? The fellas discuss that and their excitement with NOTB being on ESPN2 every Tuesday through the NBA Playoffs.
