Isaiah Thomas... do Celtics want to max him? how bad is his defense ?

[delta]

People talking about draft a PG rather than giving IT the max $130 million. Efficient 29 ppg / 5 APG... IDK


IT covers up alot for the Celtics offensively. I never noticed he was that bad of a defensive player but apparently people say it

can anyone else in the Celtics be that bailout / undisputed #1 option you need for a ring?

 

[CHICAGO]

HE SAVED THAT FRANCHISE

That's what I'm saying. People wanna give brad Stevens all this credit (which he deserves no doubt) but treat IT like he's some "best player by default" type.... on some "somebody got to take all those shots"... Like look at the list of guys that averaged 25 ppg... all superstars. Can ball / fueltz / jackson / fox do that?

I.t. has like a cult following in boston doubt the celtics let him walk.He can renegotiate an extension this summer.He'll get paid but I can't see him getting maxed he's undersized and pushing 30

If they get rid of I.t. for a young pg 2 years removed from high school the celtics will go backwards in the short term.

Pay the man

Nobody plays defense in today's NBA

[Bob Loblaw]

He's not a max player but they maxed out horford so they painted themselves in a corner

[Hammer]

he's the real deal. probably 25 other teams will gladly give him 120+ million

 

[Dwight Howard]

Maybe cause of none today superstars are known or bother playing defense..

Westbrook
Harden
Curry
Boogie
Etc

Dont play defense but are considered superstars

So you just cherry picked all the stars that are bad defenders?

 

[Columbo]

Let him walk, he wont be worh it

It would end up being almost as bad as the Horfc00n signing

Outside of Kawhi and occasionally LeBron where are these other stars that play both sides?..
