BOSTON -- You can always count on Amir Johnson's teams being in the 'pluses' whenever he's on the floor and he's at it again in his first year with the Celtics. Isaiah Thomas said Wednesday, "[Johnson] just does all the little things that fans don't see in the stat book. That's the type of player he's always been. That's how he's made his name . . . He's a big part of this team and I'm glad he's a part of it."
Johnson's impact might not be obvious, but it does manifest in the advanced stats sheet:
