Watching Isaiah Thomas play for his third team in eight months is just sad, especially seeing how he was injured for a good bit. Back in May, it was impossible to think of Isaiah Thomas leaving the Celtics. To boost the team, they even signed Gordon Hayward.

But, Isaiah Thomas ended up being the odd man out, when Kyrie Irving asked to be traded. Adding Kyrie Irving meant dealing Isaiah Thomas, while he was rehabbing from injury. Then, when he finally got to play, with the Cavs, the chemistry was off, and he was traded.

Isaiah Thomas arrives to the Lakers, after only playing a handful of games, this season. Despite just joining the Lakers, he has already played his best game, of the season. After the game, a loss to the Dallas Mavericks, IT praised his new team, liking their flow of play, but needing better execution, and had kind words for Luke Walton.
