Isaiah Thomas had a pretty good weekend, averaging 35 points in two games and leading the Celtics to two big home playoff victories to tie their 1st round series with the Atlanta Hawks 2-2.
He was feeling pretty jolly after the Celtics 103-96 overtime win over the Hawks Sunday so Thomas decided to let his two sons get involved in the post-game press conference action and much like their father they didn’t disappoint when the bright lights were on them.

They nailed all of the elements necessary for the cute press conference kid, they were wearing their dad’s jersey, they smiled and giggled profusely, made bold proclamations and even added in good old-fashioned manners and humility.
Thomas’s oldest son made the claim that his father is the best basketball player in the world, a hot button topic that was discussed to no end on First Take between Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith I’m sure.
The youngest son was the real MVP in my opinion though, he killed it with the angelic giggle and provided his very own polite and complimentary mic drop.
He scurried back to the microphone and exclaimed, “Thank you…for your honesties”
You are wise beyond your years young man, and for that I salute you.
