Average height hasn't changed much at all in the last century, but oh boy has average weight changed. During WW1, the average male in the US was 5'8" 135 lbs. and during WW2 it was 5'9" 145 lbs. Today it's 5'9" 194 lbs. That's nearly a 50% increase in a hundred years.

[ Lloyd ] Cavs players are annoyed with Isaiah Thomas ’ shot selection
騎士某些球員對小托馬斯的投籃選擇很不滿。
Jason Lloyd calls Isaiah Thomas a "chucker", also confirms NYDN report that Isaiah Thomas led the charge against Kevin Love, and says Love belittled Thomas last night after a rebound
記者把小托馬斯稱為 " 浪投王 "，並且證實瞭 NYDN 關於此前是小托馬斯在隊內會議上開始質疑樂福的報道，他還報道說昨晚對陣步行者時，樂福在摘下一個籃板後對小托馬斯做出瞭小看的肢體動作。
From The Athletic:
Thomas is a chucker. He takes bad shots. In Boston he was the only viable offensive threat, which apparently gave him a license to shoot wherever and whenever he wanted. But here his shots aren ’ t coming within the rhythm of the offense, yet that hasn ’ t stopped him from shooting. It has — and continues to — aggravate his teammates. Defensively he ’ s abysmal.
文章節選：
小托馬斯是個毒瘤。他的投籃選擇很差，在波士頓的時候他是凱爾特人唯一有效的進攻威脅，那時他擁有無限開火權。但是到瞭騎士以後，他的進攻和騎士的整體進攻節奏是脫節的，就算這樣他還是投個不停，為此騎士的一些隊員開始不爽瞭。防守端就更別提瞭，堪比黑洞的存在。

This is something that I think was overlooked when the trade happened. Isaiahs a shoot first PG in a similar way as Kyrie, but hes not nearly as good at getting his shot off out of nowhere as Kyrie. In boston he was amazing, but scored mostly off DHOs and pick and roll sets designed to get him shots. He's nowhere near the same level as Kyrie as an iso guy or late clock bailout.
I don't blame this issue on Isaiah, I blame it on Cavs coaching for having unrealistic expectations for his offensive role esp. considering the injury. He's not a plug n play offensive dynamo the same way Kyrie is
凱爾特人球迷：我認為這筆交易中有些事實被忽視瞭。小托馬斯和歐文有些相似的地方在於他們都是投籃第一的控衛，但是他創造投籃機會的能力比歐文差太多瞭。是，在凱爾特人的時候他表現得非常驚艷，但那時他的大部分出手機會都來自於球隊設計的手遞手傳球和擋拆戰術。在單打和讀表時刻拯救球方面，他和歐文不是一個級別的。不過這也不能怪小托馬斯，要怪就得怪騎士教練組對他進攻端的表現期望太不切實際瞭，尤其是在他傷病還沒痊愈的情況下，他並不是歐文那樣即插即用的無差別進攻端發電機。
