Why do the Boston Celtics continue to struggle closing games against opponents they have built large leads against, and at times against inferior rosters in terms of talent?
Is it fatigue and an intense start to a long regular season? Injuries and a lack of rest combining to create a general malaise hanging over the ball club? Too much Mazzulla Ball?

To try and get to the bottom of these questions the hosts of the ESPN “Hoop Collective” podcast debated the state of Boston’s late-game execution woes.
