[1988] Isiah Thomas scores 25 third quarter points playing through a sprained ankle in game 6 of the NBA finals. One of the greatest and gutsiest playoff performances of all time

Due to a call later dubbed as the “phantom foul” (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=R76Uack9TmQ) on Bill Laimbeer, the Pistons would lose this game and ultimately the series. They got their revenge in 1989, sweeping the Lakers for their first championship

redditors will still tell you stocktons better because he got to pass to way better player than himself and ignore all the playoff choking he did

It’s insane how underrated Isiah is because of a bunch of Basketball Reference watchers looking at his stats. He was the 2nd best PG of that era and nobody ever questioned it.
The idea that people on r/nba have that Stockton is better than Isiah is beyond ridiculous and pure stat sheet watching.

I wonder if he and Magic made out after the game the way they did before it.
