Are the Boston Celtics’ crunch time concerns that bad?

The Boston Celtics have suffered some nasty crunch-time losses this season to ball clubs they had no business dropping a game to, and often on national TV for all to see. But how do their crunch-time issues compare to other contenders in the NBA so far this season?

And perhaps more importantly for our own collective understanding of what it takes for a Boston squad to hang a banner, how do they compare to the 2008 championship Celtics team? Is this hand-wringing much ado about nothing, or is it the way that Boston has been losing those weird losses a justifiable concern given this team’s past?

The hosts of the CLNS Media “First to the Floor” podcast, Jake Issenberg, Ben Vallis, and Wayne Spooney, took a closer look at the situation on a recent episode. Check it out below!
