Now that this magical season has come to an end, it has to be really tough on IT - with the reality of his sister's passing, and his long rehab period coming up.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank IT for a truly special season.  I don't know how many times I chuckled in disbelief at his fourth quarter heroics, rewound the play to confirm what I'd just seen, and called my wife and son over to say "You have GOT to see what IT just did."  I've been a C's fan since the JoJo White / Havlicek / Cowens days, and other than Larry Bird, I've never rooted for a Celtic that I had so much faith would pull things out in the fourth quarter.

And, to find out he continued his heroics in the post-season with a bum hip, not to mention a heartbreaking tragedy.  This season was truly one we can all tell our grandchildren about.

Whether IT is just beginning his Celtics career (my hope), or he ends up moving on in the next few seasons, this season was undeniably one of the greatest individual season of any Celtic ever.  And, we all owe IT a debt of gratitude for the joy he brought us this year.

We didn't win a title, but this guy has the heart of a champion, for sure.

Thanks, IT. Hopefully you're here for a long time.

Many TPs to Isaiah.  Thanks for a great year, after the Cavs series it is clear to me that he was our leader and not Crowder or Marcus.   AB tried to lead us but IT is a leader.

He is the face of the franchise right now. He did an amazing job this season and the fact that he's 5'9" makes it even crazier. All hail the king in the fourth!
