Welcome to First to the Floor, a Boston Celtics channel bringing you levelheaded overreactions, occasional coherent analysis, and a few laughs (we hope). The First to the Floor team, Ben Vallis, Jake Issenberg, and Wayne Spooney, might not be traditional members of the media, but that’s some of our charm. As part of the CLNS Network, we have unique access to great guests like Abby Chin, Chris Forsberg, Drew Carter, and sometimes we even let Barstool’s Dan Greenberg join. No matter how you like your Celtics content, we’ve got you covered. Between full-length pods, live game watch-a-longs, articles for Celticsblog, clips, and film breakdowns, let us be your spot for everything Celtics. We aren’t in this for the money (otherwise we’d all be homeless by now), we do it because it’s fun. And what makes it fun is interacting with our listeners. F2TF isn’t just a podcast, it’s a community. So, jump into the community, join the Discord, subscribe on YouTube and your favorite podcast app.

Jaylen and D-White lead the way as the Celtics go up 1-0
Jaylen Brown threw the first punch in the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals, eventually leading the Celtics to a convincing game 1 win over the Cavs. Derrick White did his best prime Ray Allen impression, pouring it on from beyond the arc to keep the Celtics in front throughout the game. How did the Celtics approach this first game, and what adjustments might the Cavs make in game 2? Plus, we take a look at the current conversation around Jayson Tatum, and recap the other series' happening around the league.

Customer Reviews
Great analysis and informative opinions
The hosts seems very knowledgable, and manage to balance serious debate with being funny and essentially keeping a lovely familiar Reddit feel.
A must for any Celtics fans who’re Reddit users! Still think non-Redditors would enjoy the analysis.
Considered docking a half star for it being so quiet that I can barely hear even when maxing volume!
