Out of all the current NBA players, Isaiah Thomas holds the record for most points in a playoff game.
53 points on 68.5% TS right after his sister died. Phenomenal.
For reference, he eclipses LeBron (51), Westbrook (51), KD (50), Lillard (50), Carter (50), Curry (47), AD (47), Aldridge (46), Harden (45), Kawhi (45), and Giannis (41).
5月3日，在凯尔特人对阵奇才的东部半决赛系列赛第2场比赛中，小托马斯出场45分钟，全场33投18中，三分球12投5中砍下了53分，这也是现役球员季后赛单场得分最高纪录。值得一提的是，在这场比赛的不久前，小托马斯的妹妹因车祸去世。
现役其他球员季后赛的单场最高得分纪录：詹姆斯（51）、威少（51）、KD（50）、利拉德（50）、卡特（50）、库里（47）、浓眉（47）、阿尔德里奇（46）、哈登（45）、伦纳德（45）以及字母哥（41）。

And Millsap would"ve gotten more than 45 if Brad Stevens didn"t decide to put Smart on him late in that game.
That"s actually a true story.
如果史蒂文斯教练再晚点派斯马特去防守米尔萨普的话，那么他应该不止得45分，这可不是瞎编的。（季后赛东部首轮系列赛中，米尔萨普在老鹰对阵凯尔特人的比赛中31投19中砍下45分13篮板3助攻2抢断4盖帽。）
[-]ItsWorkinggg
Wow that’s pretty impressive for a guard on a post player even if millsap is undersized for a big man, dude is still an animal
哇哦，尽管米尔萨普相对来说是一名矮个内线，但一个后卫限制了一个内线球员真的是让人觉得相当不可思议，并且米尔萨普还是一头野兽。
[-]fatcocksinmybum
Smart is just a dog, he has that Rodman mentality where he will matchup with anyone
斯马特非常难缠，他有着罗德曼一样的风格，他会让对位的每一个人都很难受。
[-]KyriesFlatEarth
Just waiting for him to finally go Rodman hair.
坐等他的头发也罗德曼化
[-]MilwaukeeMan420
That would be cool
听起来很吊的样子
[-]mr_duong567
We really had a top 5 defense that year with IT, Sully and Amir in our starting lineup lol.
虽然那个赛季我们的首发阵容中有小托马斯、萨林杰以及阿米尔-约翰逊，但我们的防守是全联盟前五，哈哈。
[-]dk240996
Goes to show what ridiculous defenders Smart, Bradley and Crowder were at the time.
这也证明了斯马特、布拉德利以及克劳德那时候的防守有多牛逼。
[-]MarrowAero
Man, I don’t like the Celtics but I hope Smart stays in Boston. It’s seems like everyone loves him there with him doing Honey Dew ads and going on New England radio shows for interviews.
兄弟，虽然我不喜欢凯尔特人但我希望斯马特能留在凯尔特人。看上去好像那里的每个人都很喜欢他，他为Honey Dew（餐饮品牌）拍广告、去新英格兰爱国者队的电台做访谈节目。
[-]flatbushdid911
People forget how good the King of the Fourth was for a couple seasons. It hurts that injuries have knocked him back as far as they did, but he was a stone cold killer during his time with the Celtics.
I hope we get to see it again.
人们已经忘记了当年的那个末节之王有多出色了，伤病毁了他的一切。这让人非常难过。但在凯尔特人的那个小托马斯依然是个冷血杀手，我希望能看到他重回巅峰。
[-]Saprano44
A lot of fans (including Celtics fans) attributed his success to Brad Stevens. Seems like people are starting to come around on that now and recognize that IT"s final season in Boston was truly special
很多球迷也包括凯尔特人的球迷都将小托马斯的成功归功于史蒂文斯，但现在看上去人们好像开始改变观点了，并且意识到他在波士顿的最后一个赛季是多么的特别。
[-]F7U12_ANALYSIS
Stevens definitely gave IT the opportunity and system to thrive but IT was the one on the court making it rain and hitting shots when it mattered most.
史蒂文斯确实给了小托马斯展示自己的机会并为他量身打造了一个体系，但是在关键时刻，小托马斯也确实是那个能够打开局面接连命中关键投篮的人。
[-]Greaves-
A lot of credit should go to Ainge. He tried to get IT for years prior to actually getting him.
But yeah, IT is kinda why we"re being a little bit underrated this season. Kemba is gonna do the same things IT did
安吉应该得到表扬，在他们真正得到小托马斯之前，安吉就一直在努力尝试得到他。但是，小托马斯也是我们下赛季被人低估的原因之一，而肯巴（沃克）也将会做小托马斯做过的事情。
[-]F7U12_ANALYSIS
IT had Al. This team having no defensive bigs is gonna bite ‘em unless they make a trade/pick-up, or Timelord makes a big jump.
IT thrived in Boston, but he was an exciting player who contributed on the offensive end in Sacramento, too. He wasn"t just some scrub before he joined forces with Stevens.
小托马斯有霍弗德。而现在这支球队没有防守，除非他们做出交易或者时间领主（Timelord ，罗伯特-威廉姆斯绰号）能够飞速成长，否则的话他们的内线下赛季会被人蹂躏。
小托马斯在凯尔特人取得了成功，但别忘了他在国王时期就是一个能持续在进攻端贡献的球员。在与史蒂文斯合作之前，他可不是什么菜鸡球员。
[-]ItsSplashology
People seem to forget he was getting 20 PPG in his final year in Sac. Crazy thing was he was the 3rd option, behind Boogie and Gay, on most nights.
人们似乎已经忘了他在国王的最后一个赛季场均能够得到20分，更疯狂的是，大多数情况下，他还只是球队的第三选择，在考辛斯与盖伊之后。
[-]Shablagoo-
Plus with nearly 6 FTA and over 6 assists, all in his third year? That’s burgeoning star territory.
此外场均还有6个罚球和6个助攻，这还只是他的第三个赛季，一颗冉冉升起的新星。
[-]bman8
He gonna rock DC I believe in IT
他会在奇才重振雄风的，我相信他。
[-]colonii
I got him to have a come back year this year.
我相信他下赛季能够王者归来。
[-]GornothDragnbone
People are quick to forget how much of a monster IT was for a couple of years. It hurts me to see how injuries messed up his career, but I"m always going to root for the guy.
人们很快就忘记了当年的小托马斯是多么的牛逼，看到他的职业生涯因伤病而饱受困扰我很难过，但是我永远支持他。
[-]xsily
He was so fun to watch then
看巅峰小托马斯打球真是一种乐趣。
[-]Warpable
His confidence was unmatched. KOT4Q was an absolute pleasure for sure.
没有人比他更自信了，他是当之无愧的末节之王。
[-]PancakeTaughtMe
I think that’s a solid gamble, if he can look decent to begin with, Washington is gonna give him a bigger green light than anywhere else in the league can give him, tanking or not.
我认为这是一次不错的尝试，如果他在奇才一开始就打得不错的话，那么无论奇才摆不摆烂，他都能获得比在其他球队更多的机会。
[-]colonii
I also think Lonzo is up for a break out year now he’s finally out of LA and away from the distractions
我觉得鲍尔也已经为下赛季的爆发做好了准备，他终于离开了洛杉矶，远离了那些让他分心的事情。
[-]Loreddd
I’m not so sure ‘distractions’ were ever really a problem. It’s being injured for large portions of his first two seasons.
我不觉得所谓的“分心的事情”对他来说是个问题，他前两个赛季所遇到的问题很大一部分要归咎于他的伤病。

My brother died in a car accident almost exactly one year after Thomas" sister did. I still struggle some days but it was especially tough to find motivation to do anything for the first few months, particularly as I was finishing up my last semester at college. Whenever I was feeling like I just couldn"t handle it or do anything I would watch IT"s highlights from that game and figure that it he could do that in the playoffs, I could finish up my degree. Or I could go hang out with people. Or I could just get out of bed. To me this game is nothing short of incredible and why IT will always be my favorite player.
在小托马斯的妹妹去世大概一年之后我的兄弟也因为一场车祸而去世了，我花了一些时间才走出来，而且在最开始的几个月你会发现找到动力去做事是那么地艰难，尤其是当时我正处于大学生涯的最后一学期。无论何时，我都觉得我不能解决或者做任何事情。于是我找了一些小托马斯的比赛集锦来看，我就在想，他能够（在妹妹去世的情况下）在季后赛打出那样的表现，我也能完成我的学业。或者我可以出去和朋友们一起玩，或者我就去睡觉，对我来说这项运动是不可思议的，而这也是小托马斯为什么永远是我最喜欢的球员。

That hit me hard. My condolences, and good luck.
你的故事深深地打动了我，抱抱，祝你好运。

Hey man i know it gets harder than words can explain, but finding solace in something you love is a beautiful thing. Stay up bro!
兄弟，我知道这种感觉很难用文字表达出来，但是能够从你喜欢的事情上找到安慰是一件很棒的事情，加油兄弟！

I hope you get to meet IT one day
我希望有一天你能见到小托马斯。

How can we make this happen?

He sometimes does QnAs on his Twitter. May be a long shot, but I’ve seen him do them somewhat often so OP could try to tweet at him, even if it’s just a reply such as “stay strong bro” or something like that
他有时候会在推特上做问答，或者是long shot（抽奖？）,我看到有时候他经常会做这些，所以我们可以在在推特上艾特他，尽管他可能只会回复一句类似于”坚强，兄弟“这样的话。

I tweeted at him
