Isaiah Thomas is set to put his experience being shuffled from team to team to good use for the Boston Celtics.
With free agency looming, president of basketball operations Danny Ainge has asked the point guard, who over three seasons bounced from the Sacramento Kings to the Phoenix Suns to Boston, for his input into the Celtics' offseason moves.
"Danny said if there's any free agent out there I'm interested in, to let him know," Thomas told the Boston Globe's Adam Himmelsbach. "That has me excited. For him to ask for my input means a lot, because it means I'm definitely, right now, a part of the future, and they also value your word and what you think about the game of basketball. It means a lot, and it's a mutual respect we have. Now, hopefully, we can get a few guys."
I thought Danny Ainge was a pretty smart guy. He should know better than to ask anyone named Isaiah Thomas about general manager advice.
