NBA great and New York Knicks General Manager Isiah Thomas is getting sued for sexual harassment and discrimination. That’s not great. The most interesting part of the story is probably this:
The lawsuit also alleges that Thomas told Browne Sanders he was pushing for more home games at noon on Sundays. His plan, according to Browne Sanders, was to have opposing players go to certain clubs, including strip clubs, that Thomas had connections with on Saturday nights and get them drunk so they would be sluggish for the game the next day.
Classy, Isiah. In recent weeks Thomas has taken a break from his job of systematically ruining the Knicks franchise to threaten ESPN columnist Bill Simmons in an ESPN radio interview (link 1; link 2).
It’s a good day not to be a Knicks fan.
