I feel for Isaiah Thomas, because without him, we don't get no ECF. We definitely don't get no Hayward. And Horford definitely doesn't even bother giving us a second hand look.
He built something here. Yes, he was flawed, but he if he wasn't, I don't think the trade would've ever been assembled.
And I do understand IT's perspective. Yes, he's coming off a slight bit childish, but take it from his POV. He came here, after being dismissed by SAC/PHX, and after finally settling in with the right coach, and a good system tailored to help him excel and score off the PnR's, then he gets traded to a team for another PG, whilst the whole fiasco with his hip injury is destroying any subtle chances of acquiring the max contract.
My only wish from IT during his tenture here, was his whole brinks truck comment... I mean... Why even say it so many times? We get it. You want a max. But the problem is, giving IT a max, would've been exorbitantly high, and affect our cap space. Plus, there were players just like IT, who were extremely underpaid, but other than Bradley, who briefly mentioned it, then fired his agent, is there anyone else on our roster who kept complaining about their contract?
Like everyone has said. It's a business.
