The “season” starts today.
Been waiting a long time for this!
https://twitter.com/nbcsceltics/status/1043973183160889344?s=21
Celtics Media Day is TODAY! 🥳😍😝
Here's how to prep:
1⃣ Watch & RT this amazing video (no we're not being biased)
2⃣ Follow us on instagram: instagram.com/nbcsboston
3⃣ Reply BELOW w/ questions you want to ask your favorite players (we'll post their answers here & on IG)
If anyone sends questions, it sounds like they’ll try to solicit and post answers.
So pumped for the season....today is just the beginning. First pre-season game within the week?
Great stuff! 👍☘️☘️☘️🏀🏀🏀
What are you looking forward to today?
EDIT : Definitely check out the vid at the bottom of the tweet with snippets of past media days!
We’re Bird and McHale really that young? Hank Finkel?

i'm hoping to be able to get into the media day tomorrow, looks promising. I can't wait for tomorrow and this exciting year to come!
-
I'm looking forward to video of practice and player interviews.

Great photo. Call me an old fuddy duddy but I liked the days when players all wore the same colored shoes. Don't care what brand just have everyone wear all green or all black shoes with white logos.

Gordon Hayward now looks like a person who constantly says, "Chase your bliss, friend."
-
Interesting size comparisons. If Brown is 6'7 and Hayward is 6'8, then Tatum looks to be a legit 6'9, and he's gained some weight.

*The Boys Are Back in Town opening riff plays on endless repeat*
Love this bunch. So excited to finally see what they can all do together. STAY HEALTHY GUYS!!

Can see that pretty clearly in this thread started by CelticsElite.
https://forum.celticsstrong.com/index.php?topic=97714.msg2559479#new
Maybe mods can merge the threads.
TP to you and CelticsElite!!
Go Cs!!

The size of this versatile lineup is nuts.

Kyrie is being interviewed right now, a couple points of interest:
1. He wants #11 in the rafters someday, it's a "dream" of his. Loves being part of the "lineage" of the Celtics
2. He wants to be a leader. His comments to Jackie MacMullen were in part an effort to be transparent so he can lead better and maintain confidence within the organization that they will be contending for several years.
3. He feels great physically
4. He feels the Celtics are in a remarkable situation going forward with their talent level, to the point where he feels slightly frightened by expectations.
5. We will likely eventually be getting an Uncle Drew 2.
6. He really seems to appreciate his Sioux ancestry.

TP....thanks for sharing...all good/nice news about Kyrie!

I can't believe the first preseason game is this Friday.
Did Hayward add muscle? He looks bigger. What style of Nike's is he wearing? I'm surprised by the lack of ankle support though in those sneakers. I wonder if he'll be wearing some type of support, other than just tape.
-
Smart was talking earlier about how he feels much more relaxed now that his contract is settled. Nice interview, I've never seen him talk for so long but he really does seem bright.
He's also been working on finishing through contact around the rim. Good news, I say.
Hopefully he can continue to grow offensively now that he doesn't have the contract looming over his head.
Theis is up now, he seems really excited about the potential of the team. Much like everyone else who has been interviewed. LOL he is remarkably cheery, very pleased to get back on the court. Even Marcus Morris sounded legitimately giddy, Good stuff.

If Hayward will be the player he was 2 seasons ago in Utah, then this can be a team with a ring!

I guess I'm an old fuddy duddy too, because I can't stand mismatched shoes on a team. I think I could live with players having different shoes if they at least were all in the correct color palette (some guys wearing green shoes, some white, and some black), but having colors that are outside the team's official palette is maddening—Tatum's shoes look like those of a Warriors player, and Kyrie's aqua-and-fluorescent-red shoes ... what the crap is that all about?
-
Gordon's always happy... Just turned on Media Day at lunch for a bit. Hayward is coming up next. Thanks for the new site. https://www.nba.com/celtics/mediaday

This team reminds me so much of the 07-08 team - even our deep bench guys are loads of fun. Shades of Scal and Pollard.
-
Best looking starting 5 in the teams history? I’m saying yes.
-

Not sure about that. Horford is 6-10 and Tatum does not look 1 inch shorter than him.

I've done nothing at work today outside of watching media day. I am so pumped right now. BRING ON THE SEASON!

The #Celtics Jaylen Brown said he spent this summer becoming "uncomfortable" in terms of working on things that didn't play to his natural strengths which he sees as being integral to his continued growth as a player.

I think that's wonderful. We grow most when we seek out that which is "Uncomfortable" and aim to learn from it.
I'm so excited about this season

LOL at Robert Williams answering that the best advice he's received is that "Sleep is important"
What a meme.

Tatum looks as tall as Horford in the fab five pic of Irving, Brown, Tatum, Hayward and Horford.

Tatum actually looks a bit taller than Horford. Could he be 6-11 by now?

TP for the laugh bdm860.
I saw LeBron fixed his hair again, that squad is going to make him lose even faster than he did before.
