Isaiah Thomas penned a Player’s Tribune piece about his trade to Boston and falling in love with the city. It is full of great passages that you will read over and over again as your green blood races through your body and fills it with Boston pride.
This is just a little bit… from last year’s lost to the Cavs.
I’ll admit, it took us a while to find the silver linings in getting swept. We still lost four straight, and that’s tough to stomach. But when we were walking off the court at the Garden after Game 4, something happened that I had never seen before, anywhere.
The Boston fans got on their feet and started chanting, “Let’s go, Celtics!
They gave their team, who had just been swept, a standing ovation.
At that moment, I knew that this city was like no other. Even though the season was over, it felt like we were starting something.
Yeah, you just got tingles, right? I know it because I just did too, and I’ve read it a few times.
Go read the whole thing. You won’t be able to sleep tonight. You’ll be dying for 7pm Saturday, lamenting the earth’s rotation for not getting us there faster. You’ll want to buy Isaiah Thomas #4 jerseys for yourself and all your friends and family.
Isaiah Thomas loves Boston, and we love you right back!
