He also picked up some savvy veteran tricks from teammate Danny Green while in San Antonio &#8212; and we imagine playing under iconic head coach Gregg Popovich did not hurt either.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The Celtics point guard recently told the tale of how this came to be on a recent appearance on the &#8220;Young Man and the 3&#8221; podcast.
