Criticism is going to come while you're injured, but you just have to work through it, stay mentally tough ... I think he has something to prove this year.

First of all, I try not to read the papers and not even get involved in it. You just focus on your job and what you're there to do. If it happens, it happens.

That was a tough one. We were starting to build some momentum and this game we took a little step back.
bit catalyst good great hopefully job offensive playing super throw
I think he's doing a good job for us overall. Hopefully he can keep that up. And Michael's been playing super off the bench. He's playing great defense, getting a lot of offensive boards, and he's been a catalyst a little bit on the offensive end because we can throw it down to him in the post.

I don't have a beef with him at all. I've never had a problem with him. I just set a screen, and I didn't even try to put anything into it. I just tried to brace myself. He's a strong guy.
effort forth open points score shoot teams
We're not doing it. I'm not doing it. We can put forth as much of an effort as we want on defense, but teams who can shoot well are going to score points ? and we've got to execute. We're getting open looks. We're just not making them.

I love Boston. I'm enjoying my new teammates, my new city, my new town. I'm looking to a lot of good things happening here in the future.
