Johnson's ability to fit in an important skill

The Celtics have a log jam at power forward, with several players duplicating the skill sets of others. But the coaching staff doesn't worry about one of their newest additions - 6-foot-11 Amir Johnson.

The 10-year veteran, the best rim protector and one of the best rebounders on the roster, has developed a knack for complementing his fellow big men.

"The biggest thing that could summarize it, when we looked out list of bigs (in free agency) and now, Amir fits with all of them. Being able to fit in with somebody is a big part of this," Celtics coach Brad Stevens said before this afternoon's practice.
