Video: Did the Celtics betray IT by trading him to the Cavaliers?
A lot of us are in our feelings lately with Isaiah Thomas having been traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers after gutting out one of the most heart-wrenching post-season performances in memory.
After suiting up just days after the death of his sister, and sticking it out after losing teeth, dental surgery, and hurting his hip, it's hard not to. The guy clearly loved being a Boston Celtic, and you'd be hard-pressed to find an example of a harder-working, more professional athlete. So, are those feelings justified? Maybe on some kind of personal level, but check out what the folks over at ESPN's The Jump had to say about the situation - as unhappy as I am with the cold-hearted feel of it all, I can't say I disagree.
