IT Goes For 53

How awesome is Isaiah Thomas? Probably one of the best underdog stories you can find in sports. I love Russell Wilson's story, but IT's is even better. Very undersized in a sport you really need size. RW is about 2-3 inches shorter than what you want a QB to be, IT is about 5-7 inches shorter than your typical PG. Last pick in the draft, i bet all those teams feel dumb for passing him up. I'll be rooting for the Celtics in the playoffs.

Celtics looked bad first two games of the Bulls series, like sweep bad, but now are riding a 6 game win streak. Very easy team to root for, happy for IT. Not sure how he was able to focus on basketball these past few weeks. He has been incredible.

This is kind of cool. Looks like Kobe's been mentoring him the last few weeks.
