“He’s really worked hard and he looks in better shape,” coach Doc Rivers said before the Celtics met the San Antonio Spurs. “He looks like he’s really put some time into conditioning and that’s a great way of winning your teammates back, coming back in better shape than when you left.”

 I hope he hasn’t been doing too many MMA workouts.  That’s the crap that got him injured in the first place.  (On second thought, maybe I should wish he did a lot more MMA work.  Then, maybe he’ll hurt the other guy next time rather than himself.)

Whatever he’s doing to work out, he’ll be back fairly soon, and from the sounds of it he’ll be svelte (or, at least, a bit svelte-er) when he returns.
