Love the line he says in response to the question "you like Boston, huh?",  almost as if they were surprised.

He says : "yeah they like me so I like them"

 Isaiah is feeling the Boston love! ;D

Interesting that he said two guys in the West that he is trying to bring to Boston.

Mathews and LA?

The classic IT sheepish grin at 9:20. I also like what he said about Boston, it confirms what we thought: he feels appreciated and may finally be on a team for the long run.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.

Do you think Adam Silver will do something about it?
I mean, players are allow to talk to each other, but now reporters start to say that IT is Danny Ainge's main recruiter. This is borderline tampering to me.
What is your take?

I think there's a difference if IT says "This is the offer from DA" and if he says "Boston is awesome", but at this point maybe it's time to keep his head down a little. Or if he's not cheating clarify that

I think if he does something about it, it would possibly just open up a whole can of worms. It just becomes a whole thing about regulating who NBA players can talk to, what they can talk about. How much player to player interaction can or should the NBA monitor.

There's no real limitation on player-to-player contact, but the reason that players never mention specific guys who are still under contract is to avoid another team lodging a complaint with the league office.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

I think he said two big men

but I also heard rumors that signing Aldridge means you have to sign Matthews

Aldridge and Gasol (I doubt Gasol will come, heard he likes it down there in Memphis, think I heard someone mentioned he went to school there?)
