Isaiah Thomas returns to Boston as a starter for Wizards

In some ways it seems like a million years ago that Isaiah Thomas was leading the Celtics to playoff wins in dramatic and emotional fashion. In other ways it seems like just yesterday.

He was the catalyst that transitioned the Celtics from rebuilding to competing again. He was the embodiment of Boston’s underdog, overachieving, never quit spirit. He was our star, our franchise, our little guy. Until he wasn’t anymore.

Much has been said and written about his departure and what it meant to the Celtics and Isaiah, but by now it seems that all parties have moved on.
