    A scrappy, more than game Rondo with a chip on his shoulder looking for payback on the Celtics? Yes, please. If he can slow Thomas down even just s little bit ... Celtics will be in trouble. He's more than capable of doing so.

    2 legit go to players that can dominate and close out games in Wade + Butler for the Bulls as opposed to 1 for Celtics will be the difference in this series.

    Dwyane Wade still got it. He always comes up big in the playoffs. He's going to show why he's one of the best SG's of all time. Bulls in 6.

    Terrible news about Isaiah Thomas sister.

    Just one note and don't wanna turn this into a debate in this thread.

    Thomas has made a total of 24 million in 6 seasons. Surprised his sister was driving a 98 Camry.. Probably worth 2 grand.

    Some people want to continue working for their lives and don't feel the need to be showered with money.

    I wouldn't be able to play in this situation, but let's wait and see. But don't think there's any way he'll be effective now.

    Heard he was an in-game decision. She was only 22, so understandably he must be pretty shaken and might miss the game. Hard to focus on your job when bigger things in life happen. My heart goes out to him and his family, terrible news.

    neither would i. better give the man some time to grieve. however this could be one of those things where thomas playing is his way of grieving for his sister... to which defenders better watch the hell out.

    That's horrible, Thomas must be devastated. Incredibly sad to loose a young sister out of nowhere like that.

    My heart also goes out to whoever has the awkward task of defending him.

    Painful seeing the cameras focused on IT with his eyes red clearly been crying.

    Feel horrible for him. I know it wouldn't mean a damn thing to him but I hope he can go out there and have a historic game.

    My god. I can't believe that. What a ****ing tragedy. This world and life is full of uncertainty. Tell who you love you love them, tell your crush you have feelings for them, tell your parents you love them for everything they have done for you, and if they haven't done **** for you, thank them for giving you life. Life is so short, don't ever hesitate any idea of positivity or love. Do you, enjoy it, embrace it. Never regret and always learn. Good luck to IT3, your family is in my prayers.
