Jrue Holiday made a pair of crucial mistakes at the end of regulation in the Celtics' loss to the Hawks, and he took accountability for them.

⋅ The final minute of regulation on Saturday was frenetic and, at times, tough to keep track of. But it certainly looked as if Jrue Holiday lost track of the score after the Celtics decided earlier that they would foul the Hawks while holding a 3-point lead down the stretch.

The Celtics nearly blew one win already this past week with brutal crutch time execution. A repeat performance on Saturday night was enough to sink them this time around. The Celtics had the ball and a three-point lead in the final 20 seconds of regulation but still blew the lead and eventually the game in a 119-115 overtime loss to the Hawks.
