The press conference was scheduled for 10AM but didn't kick off for about 45 minutes. The delay seemed like an eternity and the first interaction between Al Horford and the Celtics was brief, but the newest member of the green seemed to instantly be a perfect fit:
Horford on Boston fanbase: "It's always electric here, the fans are amazing and always very passionate."
Horford clearly gets it. Boston fans are different and throughout his press conference he mentioned how he took notice of the fanbase even as far back as the 2008 playoffs when the Hawks took the Celts to seven games.
