"Gilbert Arenas was once one of the most prolific scorers and entertainers in the NBA. On Sunday, he missed all seven of his shots from the field and all of his explanations in the locker room afterward, too.

"I expected to struggle a little bit because I have to learn how everyone plays," Arenas said after going scoreless in a 91-80 loss to the Celtics. "I'm the point guard. I've got to learn where everybody wants the ball, how they move, where they like it, where they dislike it. So I can't be as aggressive as I want to. I can't just go down there and play my basketball. That's not what we do here.

"I'm so focused on trying to get people the ball that when I do have open shots, it's like, 'Oh, open shot,' and then I shoot it," Arenas said. "Instead of saying, 'I'm going to shoot, if I see somebody, I'll pass it.' When you're a scorer and you think about scoring, everything comes easy.
