For me, James is the most 'Jordan-like' of all this generation's players. Not because he plays anything like MJ, but because he's difficult to 'grasp'.

In Oh My God news today, Isiah Thomas was reportedly taken to the hospital for ODing on sleeping pills. Frankly, reports are still sketchy, with some reporting just an ambulance going there and some declaring it an all out collapse. It's obvious however that things are not ok in Isiah land (and it hasn't been for a long time I imagine).

Now being a Knicks fan I've written about Isiah many many times, and usually in a less than positive note. I've even assumed, wrongly of course, that Knicks management would get their heads on eventually and kick him out and even bet my blogging on it. My attempts to stop till he got fired went pffft of course, when I realized I just liked doing this too much.

At any rate, this isn't about myself. It's about Isiah Thomas.
