Biggest Takeaways From Celtics Media Day

This was a common theme throughout the day with new faces arriving to the podium as old faces from a season prior become a memory. As the long, atrocious offseason has finally come to an end, we are finally upon the next chapter of Boston Celtics basketball in the start of a brand new era.

Out of all the interviews we were able to see today, I felt like nobody had more fun with it than Mitchell Robinson. Robinson signed a three-year, $47.4 million contract with Boston on July 1st and Media Day was the first time we got to talk to him in a Celtics uniform. Safe to say he made a great impression early with his positive attitude and sense of humor.

His relationship with Joe Mazzulla is going to be a fun watch this year as it feels like both of them have a lot of mutual respect for each other. Mazzulla said that Robinson is one of the best big men in the NBA and his resume speaks for itself. In Robinson's presser, he talked about how much it meant to him that Joe went down to Nashville to see him, saying Mazzulla "sees them as people instead of just players." Mitch did say Joe had to apologize to him for fouling him so much when he was on the Knicks but that is water under the bridge now and he is ready to get to work.
