Michael Chiklis on playing a childhood hero, but as the villain

Andover native and acclaimed actor Michael Chiklis grew up watching Red Auerbach and the Boston Celtics win again and again.

We talk with Chiklis about what that experience has been like, why he's held onto his Boston fanhood despite living in L.A. for three decades, and what he makes of the current Celtics playoff run.
