I thought this topic was about Isiah Rider and then I thought Zeke was dead. I was wrong twice. :P
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Isiah truly is a scumbag:

Quote
A suburban police chief likened the conflicting accounts of an accidental overdose at Isiah Thomas' home to a "cover-up" and rebuked the former New York Knicks coach Saturday for saying it was his teenage daughter who required treatment.

"It wasn't his daughter," Harrison Police Chief David Hall told The Associated Press. "And why they're throwing her under the bus is beyond my ability to understand."

Authorities were called early Friday to Thomas' Westchester County home, where police said a 47-year-old man was taken to the hospital and treated for an overdose of sleeping pills. Several media outlets reported that police confirmed it was Thomas who went to the hospital.

But reached on his cell phone Friday, the 47-year-old NBA great told the New York Post he had not been treated for a sleeping pill overdose, and that it was 17-year-old daughter Lauren who had a medical issue.

It "wasn't an overdose," he told the newspaper. "My daughter is very down right now. None of us are OK."

Hall forcefully refuted Thomas' statement.

"My cops ... know the difference between a 47-year-old black male and a young black female," Hall said.

What type of man deflects media attention to his 17 year old daughter after something like this?  If he had an overdose, accidental or otherwise, he should get the appropriate help, rather than subjecting his young daughter to embarrassment and scrutiny.

Isiah was not only a failure as a coach and a GM; he's a failure as a father and a human being, as well.

Oy.  Isiah needs to move to Siberia or something.  Just get lost.

Jeeze.. what's wrong with this guy. I loved him when he was a player but ever since he started coaching, I think he's the biggest Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. in the world.
