The "beauty" pictured above is claiming that Isiah: (1) called her a "bitch" and asked her to have sex; (2) said "What? I can't get any love today?" when she spurned his advances; (3) told her he was in love with her; (4) employed the 'ole LT tactics -- that is, he worked with concierges at hotels frequented by visiting teams to encourage out-of-town players to go to certain bars and strip clubs and get drunk the night before a day game; and (5) that Stephon Marbury joined in the razzing and "felt free to refer to her a 'black bitch.'"
Anyway, for his part, Thomas' attorney says that she's a gold diggin' ho and "this is all done to embarrass him." Which, at least the latter part, leads to the obvious question: Hasn't Isiah done enough to embarass himself?
And not for nothing, but yeah, I'll say it, I honestly thought all along that Isiah was in love with Magic. And while I'm on the topic of those two, if anybody should be filing a lawsuit against either of them, it should be some type of black class action for defamation or something. The two of 'em have done so much to reinforce the "He speaks so well for a black guy" stuff, that I have believe bruthas are entitled to some recompense. Have you heard Magic on the TNT show? If you haven't, god bless you. Brutal.
Judging by the small pic, he can't judge talent in the sexual harrassment department either.

The larger pic confirms M. Butler's conclusion.

What's next? Trading his wife and a 2008 first round draft pick for a handjob from Rebecca Lobo?

Killing me, Maine. Absolutely, positively, killing Me.
Steve Rushin would not be pleased.

Some people ride horses. Other people marry them after they retire from the New York Liberty. Who am I to judge?
