As someone who often writes for a blog, I can say with absolute resolution that I will miss Isiah Thomas after this year. The man, after all, has provided us with a sex scandal, a terrible team, and a salary cap that is too astronomical to even try and fix.

He “waxed” on this last season, sounding like a guy who already has one foot out the door.

“What I’ve been asked to do and required to do by the Knicks, I’ve tried to perform to the best of my ability,” Thomas said before the team’s scheduled shootaround. “This is a very disappointing season. I’m not used to being at the bottom. But this is what it’s like on the bottom, and this is how you get treated on the bottom. That’s how it is.”

Not used to being on the bottom? I’m not sure what Isiah remembers, but what I remember of the Knicks over the last three years is, well, to be frank, them at the bottom. And if you’re not used to being on the bottom, and don’t want to be on the bottom, don’t make trades for Stephon Marbury and Zach Randolph. It’s really not that difficult.
