Isaiah Thomas has been getting some assists from Kobe Bryant this postseason.

The Celtics All-Star guard told reporters Wednesday he's been watching film and receiving playing advice from Bryant ever since the Bulls took a 2-0 series lead on the Celtics in the first-round playoff series. 

“He was telling me what times to go to, and what to look at, and certain plays, things I didn’t look at when I watched film," Thomas said. "… He made me figure out a lot of things.”
