Isaiah Thomas: Reliving magical 53-point playoff game and connection with Boston

[@SlickSelektah]

We didn't re-sign him, but can we at least add him to the staff in some capacity? Just want to see IT hanging with our boys

[@aaronling2957]

Why tf would they even do that or if they did he wouldnt go. It would make him look like he retired. Low iq thinking haha therefore teams woukdnt think if signing him

[@Mist_R]

Kids won't ever truly understand how epic IT was in the Celtics.

[@n8tethegr8t20]

those playoff series with him ill never forget as a fan watching those

[@ahoha.]

My favorite player hands down. I remember a guy on a podcast saying that players, in all sports, are the closest thing we have to super heroes in real life, and man, the things IT did, the stories, all the stuff he overcame... thats some super hero shit right there. Thank you, IT!

[@MrShishi]

As a Celtic fan I will always cherish those IT Playoff moments. What he achieved with a bad roster has never been done before, that's why we love IT

[@sixtyhrs]

I wanna see IT at a Celtics game or even a playoff game. The energy at TD Garden will be insane

[@andygonzalez9875]

He was there for game 7 last year

[@blade6321]

Underrated in the draft, underrated his whole career! IT played hard.

[@dkota_]

IT got me into basketball. Will always thank him for that and the dedication he gave us

[@buttsauce123]

Not so much basketball for me, bc i always loved UConn. But he certainly got me into the NBA

[@jennyfromjapan]

isaiah turned 2.5 years [into an era] in a very storied boston celtics history.

[@tannerholt3426]

FAVORITE PLAYER OF ALL TIME BOSTON LOVE U IT4❤️❤️☘️☘️

[@EliteLilTJ]

Favorite celtic of all time🍀

[@xxslick66xx]

I hope IT4 knows how much we Boston FANs LOVE HIM!

[@caseyplunkett6083]

IT should do mindfulness seminars. For him to embrace all the experiences with Boston despite experiencing such heartbreak is truly astonishing.

[@Kevinflynn92]

Been a Celtics fan since the early/mid 00s. The Celtics lead by IT were some of the most fun seasons I've watched. I wish nothing but success for Isaiah and wish he was still wearing green in any capacity.

[@farenzeks437]

Real Boston Celtics fans recognize “the little guy” is the domino that HAD to fall for us to be where we are now, and he will always be dearly appreciated for his sacrifice and heart & grit💪☘️

[@tbell275]

In the same way we think of “who was there for us when we were down?”, we should remember IT was there for the Celtics fans when we had Nothing! Put this man in the ring of honor!

[@BulletAgario]

I remember watching that game live, truly incredible

[@thehighearners]

IT deserves a roster spot and the chance to get a ring and help our team either on or off the court. Make it happen Brad!

[@chriswright8074]

Please stop it's a reason he isn't on any teams

[@nocturne311]

@@chriswright8074yea I was thinking more coaching staff type of return

[@xTRaNzPAReNT]

IT made me fall in love with Celtics basketball! One of the best underdog stories of all time. Thanks for the memories!

[@7uice34]

Will always be a IT believer. THE LITTLE GUYYYYYY

[@gavinsidman5999]

I was at game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals when Kelly Olynyk and IT went off in the 4th quarter and won the game. One of the best Celtics game I’ve ever been to. Don’t ever count out the little guy!

[@33BRICKS]

I.T. is definitely 1 of my favorite Celtics!!!! Wish he was on the staff in any fashion(MAKE IT HAPPEN)!!!!

[@Ttunez83]

“The little guy” revived the Celtics! Thank you IT! For putting your heart on that court!

[@theclassicmanila-style8435]

Man I miss that team, I.T. Avery, Jae Crowder, Olynyk, Jerebko, Young Terry Rozier and JB, prime Al horford, Gerald Green, Amir Johnson,

[@tresadlc]

Those Isaiah Teams were his teams, and my god, was he just an absolute joy to watch. Those were some of my favorite Celtic teams of all time. He was just so amazing. So glad he is getting some talk, he was the Little Guy. King of the Fourth. Tommy H loved him.

[@dd-1280]

Will always love Isaiah

[@DavidSantos-h1g]

I'd love to add him to the roster this year and maybe give him the ring he deserves

[@ScottieLandonakaLucky]

IT is just one of those guys that played for the Celtics I will always consider a Celtic cause it was amazing to watch everytime he stepped on that court wearing a Celtic Jersey. It was what the city needed and what IT needed too

[@Trapinoutdaband]

Great interview

[@franciscoribeiro9103]

I'm a portuguese fan of the Celtics because of IT

[@Logan-Psycho]

"The Little Guy!" ☘️ R.I.P.

[@pedroblas9133]

IT4 needs to come back for one more run

[@MikeySkywalker]

We screwed him over. He deserves some kind of role with the team if he wants it.

[@stevenfritz4769]

How I wish some team would give him a chance. There’s at least three teams that could greatly benefit from him. He had an operation that fixed him. He’s still got it

[@AndreIsrael43]

KING OF THE 4TH ☘️

[@conradphillip381]

BRING BACK IT!!!☘️☘️☘️☘️

[@homerthompson416]

Pretty magical when you ran Isaiah back injured to get hurt even worse and then didn't want to pay him.

[@Celtics]

What was your favorite IT moment? So many to choose from ☘

[@blackprix]

IT was a true Celtic and an excellent player… before curry. Would Really like him as part of the Celtics organization, he would embrace it, they would embrace it and I think he would be valuable😊

[@lonzfzz2323]

IT all time Celtics great.

[@UFCDanaWhite]

I say re sign him for this playoffs run. Cut like Svi and add Queta to that 15th spot. Dude can still come in on spurts and light sh*t up!

[@caseyplunkett6083]

Y’all could’ve flown him out.

[@ARCANExx]

IT should be on our 15th man roster and rondo should be on the coaching staff

[@AGZisMe]

First! Love IT4 ☘️

[@klvnnn923]

Feel like IT needs a 30 for 30 just off being picked last and them 2 years with the celtics

[@yosoypapote7773]

@celtics need to have an IT night in the garden in the playoffs…

[@jj-hv2op]

Sign IT

[@markymark9811]

I wish the Celtics would go and get him back

[@2WheelsdownN]

It for the 15th

[@nermindelagic8512]

30:23

[@Beantown-ww1cr]

IT a celtic and was a great player but never won a chip and to get kyrie irving any team would have tried to get kyrie at the time celtics got kyrie still in his prime with that being said the kyrie irving experience didn't work out but any team would try to get kyrie teams would still trade for kyrie right now

[@ELV943]

This guy talks too much we're here trying to listen to Thomas nor this guy rambling

[@Joe-it9sy]

For a guy whose biggest achievement is getting swept by Lebron in the conference finals he sure gets a lot of love and attention.

[@nocturne311]

IT was hurt that series and that wasn't his biggest achievement. His biggest achievements were finishing top five in MVP voting, leading the NBA in 4th quarter points and becoming one of only a few players in Celtics history to drop 50+ in a playoff game.

[@sameday3271]

Celtics are trash for trading it after his injury

[@lild6810]

lil legend💯

[@newmoanyeah]

So much love and respect for IT! I really hope to see him back with the Celtics in any capacity soon.
