"Zero. No pressure. We’re all going to be dead soon, and it really doesn’t matter anymore. So, zero pressure. You’re either going to win or you’re not. And when you win, you try to forget about it a week later, and when you lose, you try to forget about it a week later. It’s not pressure. It’s an opportunity. We have an opportunity here for the next few years, however long we’re together — I’ve said this in the past — we have an opportunity to carry the organization forward, to double down on the tradition and the history of what this organization has.
And what else would you expect than somebody expecting you to win all the time? I wouldn’t want someone expecting me to lose all the time. That would be debilitating. So we have an expectation to win. We have great character, great talent, and we just have to work to maximize that and try to rely on the players to do that
I just don’t look at it as pressure. A Boston media member or somebody expecting me to win, they don’t have a weapon. They’re not going to come after me if I don’t win. It’s just people saying words, and they don’t mean anything. They’re just words. You’re just saying them because you have to say them. You’re contractually obligated to write a 500-word article afterward. They’re just words. You can’t do anything.
So it’s just a made-up word. We don’t have a pressure. If we lose, we’re not losing our life. We’re not surgeons. We’re not in the military. We coach basketball for a living. No one’s putting more pressure and ‘expectations’ than we are on ourselves. We have a responsibility. … I ask guys all the time: Would you rather have someone expect you to lose or win?
If you came up here and were like, ‘Man, I really expected you to lose that game,’ I would be pissed. But if you come up here and are like, ‘You should have won that game,’ it’s like, yeah, that’s what we signed up for. So I think it’s just the perspective of how you look at it and the truth of it.
If you allow words to take your personal power, then yes. So I don’t allow words to take my personal power. That’s just important. Words don’t have — they only have power if you allow them to. That’s what I try to teach my kids, like, I don’t give a s*** what someone says to me. Did you allow that to have an impact on you? He didn’t put his hands on you, he didn’t touch you, he didn’t do anything. He said something to you. So now you have a choice to decide how you’re going to interpret that.
So, it’s not pressure. There’s nothing anyone in this (press conference) circle can do to me that’s going to impact my identity and who I am as a person and a coach. We’re either going to win or we’re not, and 40 years from now, none of you are invited to my funeral, and that’s it. That’s it."

After being denied access to TD Garden during the end of the season and their successful playoff run, the former center pushed to have a spot in the front row of the opening night celebrations, where the Celtics rose their 18th banner to the rafters.
But his demand got rejected, and the tensions are still high between him and the organization.
”He was asking everyone to get a spot at TD Garden, to be there for this moment of history, and to try to soften up the relationship that is broken,“ one sources that works in the organization confirms.
“The requests were made in the weeks and until the day before the opening night, and he tried to talk to people in the front office and to see if some players could push to have him there but no one accepted to do so.
“He is not welcomed here, and the tensions between him and the Celtics are very, very high.
“A lot of players can’t stand him anymore, he lost respect of the Celtics nation.”
The rift is deep between the player and the most successful NBA team in history (18 titles) and nothing seems to be going in a way to solve the tense situation, as Perkins lost respect from most of the Celtics’ players and front office.
