He is only a couple seasons removed from being an MVP candidate and averaged nearly 30 points per game. Not to mention, he also made the All NBA Team that season as well. If Thomas is even half of what he was in his Boston days, then the Denver Nuggets are going to be in for a treat.
Thomas has had a chip on his shoulder since last season. He was upset about the Celtics trading him after he gave his heart and soul to the organization then was cast out of Cleveland after a rocky relationship with their locker room.
However, him being familiar with Michael Malone from his Sacramento Kings days should help and he should be able to find a role on this Denver squad. It is great to see the new point guard have such high hopes for a young and budding core.
It is great to see Thomas ready to take the season by storm with his new team.
His hopes are well placed to say the very least.
