In the NHL, the Conn Smythe conversation is heating up with four teams still standing in the postseason. Several legitimate MVP candidates are making their cases night after night, and whoever lifts that trophy is going to have earned every vote. The window to separate yourself is closing fast.
Shifting to the hardwood, the Knicks took Game One against the Cavaliers in what can only be described as a stunning collapse for Cleveland. New York is now three wins away from the NBA Finals, and Game Two becomes a must-answer moment for the Cavs. How a team responds after blowing a lead like that tells you everything about their character going forward.
And in the NFL, a blockbuster is brewing between Philadelphia and New England involving wide receiver A.J. Brown. Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport are reading this situation very differently, which tells you the deal is either more complicated or more imminent than anyone is letting on publicly. Eagles fans and Patriots fans alike are watching this one very closely, and so are we.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
