After a loss in Game 4 of his team's first-round playoff series against the Celtics, Fred Hoiberg openly alleged that Isaiah Thomas got away with carries in the win.

After another defeat in Game 5, Hoiberg wanted no part of the topic.

At least he answered the question!

Hoiberg's initial criticism, in which he said Thomas is "impossible to guard" when refs allow him to get away with carries, was received with some raised eyebrows, as it seems like the NBA hasn't called a carry in approximately 60 years.

It's apparent now that Hoiberg realizes there's no point, even if he's right.
