Mitchell Robinson sent strong message that his fit with Celtics would take time

It's becoming low-hanging fruit to criticize Mitchell Robinson's start with the Boston Celtics. That also reflects how underwhelming his start has been. Robinson was a prized free agent addition, and not just because he helped the New York Knicks, but because he was once a certified Celtics killer.

So not seeing him play the way he once did when he was a Knick is making this experience all the harder to watch. However, if there was one person who may have seen this coming all along, it's Mitchell Robinson himself.

On Media Day, he revealed that he would need 20 games before he would really start taking off with the Celtics.
