Sports Illustrated’s ranking of the top 100 NBA players continues to annoy some of the players themselves.
Boston Celtics guard Isaiah Thomas is the latest to slam the rankings, as he came in at No. 45 despite being the key cog in the Boston Celtics team that reached the playoffs and made his first All-Star team. Apparently, however, his postseason performance hurt his stock.
Thomas is not having it, though.
45? SI rankings are a JOKE!!

For the record, this isn’t a new opinion from Thomas. He felt the same way last year, too.
Sports illustrated Rankings are a JOKE lol. Feels like back in HS when those POLITICAL rankings would come out & we would just laugh it off

Thomas is not the only player who has let SI hear it over their valuation of him. He may not be the last, either.
