3) Isaiah Thomas is a good basketball player
5’9 Isaiah Thomas played larger than life against the Clippers. He scored 13 of his 28 points in the 1st quarter, which ended up being one of the factors that hurt the Clippers the most. Thomas himself is why the Clippers were getting their butt’s handed to them on the defensive end. Despite Austin’s best efforts guarding him, he couldn’t keep up with he little guy. Raymond Felton seemed to be doing a much better job against against him, but it still wasn’t enough to keep him from having some monster shots against this struggling Chris Paul-less team. This has been yet another game Thomas can add to his resume for this year’s MVP award.
