VIDEO: Isaiah Thomas forces OT, stares down Floyd Mayweather
Just because it's the preseason, doesn't mean you can't stunt.
Just ask Isaiah Thomas, who hit a game-tying shot to force overtime against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night, and then mean-mugged Floyd Mayweather courtside. Sure, it was a preseason game, and it didn't really matter if Thomas's Phoenix Suns beat the Lakers (they ultimately did), but a big shot is a big shot, and Thomas did it right in Money Mayweather's grill.
Mayweather seemed to love it, and it's hardly a surprise considering how supportive the champ has been of Thomas in recent weeks.
1/ I think @Isaiah_Thomas should be in the starting line up for the Phoenix Suns and get paid just as much as the other guards.

2/ He has a complete game and he is a much smarter player. That's just my opinion. pic.twitter.com/U5hpuox9BU

The assessment of the Suns' point guard situation is probably incorrect, but that's one heck of a fine app Mayweather is using to make his point.
