Brian reacts to the Hawks’ upset win in the play-in game in Miami, which sets up a favorable Celtics-Hawks first-round matchup (0:30). Then, he chats with NESN’s Zack Cox about the state of the Pats roster, and they give out grades for each position group (13:00). Brian also takes some listener voicemails before talking about the Bruins setting the regular-season points record and the Red Sox–Rays game, which was a disappointing start to the Red Sox’s series (56:00).
