Let’s get this out up front:
I’m very much enjoying this Celtics team. We saw last night how well these guys can work together. We saw Kyrie Irving be our new takeover master. We’ve seen Al Horford play maybe the best basketball of his career.
I love it. All of it.
But I’ll always have a soft spot for Isaiah Thomas. For the first time in a long time, Isaiah tapped into a side of me that I thought I’d pushed aside as I’d grown older. I’m obviously a Celtics fan but my job here has been to look deeper into the things and try to be unswayed by fandom to see what’s truly happening on the floor.
