Title: Book of Isaiah: Essence (IT's heartfelt youtube episode on Boston)
Post by: Monkhouse on December 05, 2017, 10:04:17 PM

What can we say about Isaiah Thomas, that we haven't already? He'll always have a place in my heart, because he just never gave up. Man... I love Isaiah Thomas. I'm gonna miss watching him play, and just make unbelievable finishes time and time again. He put his heart and soul on the court, and off the court.

"If you play for the Celtics like... you're known around the world... The Celtics.. The Celtics are legendary..."

TP for the share.

I like Kyrie, and IT had his weaknesses, but I do miss the little guy. Fans get attached, which sucks because pro sports is a business. Would've loved to see IT in Boston long term (though I'm not sure he'd be worth a max deal, but I digress).

TP to the OP!

The players in this franchise stand on the shoulders of the giants that came before. To me IT is one of those giants, and I've literally seen them all since 1959 in person.

This franchise would not be situated as well as it is today without IT. THANK YOU, IT!

And I NEVER thought that I would utter these words, but if we were out of the playoffs, I wouldn't begrudge Bron Bron ( god, this makes me feel dirty) another ring, if IT got one by contributing substantially to it.

 You deserve the Brinks truck, IT, and I hope you get it .

Yep, same here. Gonna miss IT, but I hope anything we play him, we absolutely destroy him - right after we give him a standing ovation that is ;)
