Boston Celtics blow 30 point lead, fail down the stretch, in loss to Atlanta Hawks
Locked On Celtics - Daily Podcast On The Boston Celtics - A podcast by Locked On Podcast Network, John Karalis
Everything was looking great through about 18 minutes or so as the Celtics were building a 30-point lead in Atlanta, but then the Celtics completely got bored, the Hawks started hitting a bunch of 3-pointers, and Boston played terrible, slow basketball. The result was a blown lead and a streak-snapping loss in Atlanta. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal explains that the loss itself doesn't mean much at all, but the way they lost does because it's the same stuff over and over again.
