Oscars: Boston Celtics Edition
By Jeremy Karll
Best Short Film: Isaiah Thomas’ Insane Backward Pass to Jae Crowder
The real winner for Best Short Film was Stutterer.
For the Boston Celtics, this award goes to Isaiah Thomas, and Jae Crowder, kind of.
Late in the game against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Celtics were up 106-102 with 55 seconds remaining in the game. Isaiah Thomas drove the lane and delivered a dime, behind his back, to a wide-open Jae Crowder in the corner for a dagger three. The Celtics went up 109-102 and eventually won the game, 112-107.

A lot of people are coining this as the possible assist of the year. It for sure is for the Boston Celtics this season so far, and just shows how Isaiah Thomas continues to amaze people on the court.
