Isiah Thomas Players Quotations

When I came here, the first thing that was told to me was that we had players nobody wanted, couldn't trade any of the contracts. As we stand here today. . . . we have draft picks, we have players people want and the contracts that we have in place are pretty reasonable contracts for the talent level we have.

Where we sit now, I don't think we have the luxury of the 20 teams before us. I think we are going after the best players we can get on the board.

When you have players that have been injured for some time, you have to find a way to move on and make the roster better. If Allan was to come back and regain his form, then it's an added bonus.

I'm trying to go out and get the players he wants me to go out and get. This is a player he wanted.

I'll continue to try and get the players he wants. This is a player he wanted.

No team has really had to rebuild from this altitude in terms of where we started. So it's a very unconventional way of getting young players and draft picks in a very short period of time. This will actually help us tremendously.
