When a team loses two starters, it goes without saying that other players need to step up. So far Jeff Green has answered the call.

"Yeah. You know, we’re spreading the floor for him which helps too. And that helps. But he’s just been aggressive. We’re getting the ball to him in the open court, which I think is really important for him because of his speed, the defense can’t set, and it gets him to the rim, which is good. Yeah, so he’s doing great and we’ve got to keep him thinking about rebounds. That’s important for us."

"It’s great," added Paul Pierce. "He’s been very aggressive, he’s getting easy baskets out on the break. He’s been attacking the rim in the half court and that’s the Jeff we pretty much envisioned you know coming into the season. I think we are doing a good job of finding him in his spots. And he’s taking his time and really getting the job done."

Like seeing that out of Jeff.
