TOP 10 QUESTIONS FOR ISIAH THOMAS

by DMtShooter, Five Tool Tool

Tonight, the 8-22 Knicks lost by 10 points, at home, to a 12-18 Kings team without Ron Artest, Mike Bibby and Kelvin Martin. They gave up 32 points, a career high, to John Salmons. They gave up 26 and 16 to Brad Miller, whose last display of this kind of production was, well, never.

It was their fifth loss in a row. It was their 15th loss by double digits this year, which leads the NBA. And before the game, their coach, GM, and unspeakable albatross Isiah Thomas actually said the following. (Warning: Buckle up. Some spectacular madness awaits.)

"I believe that one day we will win a championship here. And I believe a couple of these guys will be a part of that. And I believe I'll be a part of that... I don't necessarily just want to win a championship. I want to leave something that's going to stand for a long time. I want to leave a legacy, I want to leave tradition. I want to leave an imprint, a blueprint in terms of how people play, and how they coach and how they respond when they put on the Knick uniform. And I want to leave what I left in Detroit. Every person that walks through that door as a Piston, when they put on that uniform, there's a certain pride that they carry. And I want to put that here and I want to leave that here in New York. I want to leave a championship legacy."
