First there were reportedly concerns about IT's recovery from surgery. Now, Chris Broussard's multiple sauces are saying that IT was disliked by his teammates:

Quote
NBA insider Chris Broussard revealed Wednesday, one day after the Celtics traded I.T. to the Cleveland Cavaliers in a blockbuster deal for All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving, that some players in Boston “weren’t really that fond of” Thomas, according to several NBA executives.

“I will tell you this, I spoke to several executives, or texted with several executives (Tuesday night), and a lot of them were saying that a lot of the players in Boston really weren’t that fond of Isaiah,” Broussard said on FS1’s “Undisputed” while discussing the trade with Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless. “We know he had those problems in Sacramento and in Phoenix. I didn’t know he was having those issues — before (talking with) these executives — in Boston.”

Right. And he recruited one of those guys to Boston.

IT was the heart and soul of that Celtics team. I have high hopes for this new team but Isaiah was wonderful to watch and it was a great year last year!

I think the people who were burning his jersey are idiots and absolute complete and utter losers.

When did it become cool to burn a jersey when a guy was traded?

Frankly whoever is sharing that "story" is giving one or two idiots exactly what they want. This obviously is not the sentiment of 99.5% of the Celtic fanbase and I think we all do ourselves a disservice by providing them free clicks and coverage of that kind of attention-seeking garbage.

NBA insider Chris Broussard

LOL. This is nonsense, which is why it's coming from Broussard and not a reporter. If we were seeing this sort of thing from Boston guys/respected national guys, it would represent a truly shameful moment for the Celtics organization. Good thing this can be disregarded as the worthless grasps for attention of a clown.

Yeah, this is hardly believable, which isn't surprising given the source.

I'm pretty sure this first became a big thing when Terrell Owens completely decimated the Eagles' locker room right after they went to the SB.  He got himself suspended, then released, then he signed with the hated Dallas Cowboys.  Eagles' fans were disgusted beyond reproach.  My friends and I actually had a TO jersey burning "party" and put the video on Youtube.  This was back in 2004, I believe.

The game's in Cleveland, but the sentiment is right. IT should be cheered at every single game he plays in Boston for the remainder of his career.
