Hey, the Cardinals are just 1-7. Only eight games. There’s still hope!

That's because they always win like 40 games and still get to the Finals.

LOL, yeah, that clip was so stunning that it makes me think Isiah is literally the reason we went after Bol Bol. He probably recommended him to Ishbia.

Isiah is in Ishbia's ear telling him that Vogel needs to start Bol Bol at PG. Just for comedy sake I would want to see this experiment. You would probably see an internal revolt very soon if this happened though.

If Thomas starts dictating coaching strategy, god help us all.

We need a nickname for those two (Isiah Thomas + Mat Ishbia). Ishbiah? (pronounced "ish - BAY - yuh")?

Please don't let him ever get any real power in this organization. His draft record suggests he had some brains "Camby, T-Mac, Ariza, David Lee, Channing Frye, & Wilson Chandler. Though Camby was a top 2 pick. I don't know what's happened to him since then to even suggest that about Bol Bol.

Did you see Jalen Rose last game in the sideline, acting like Coach, begging for attention? If he had stayed on his chair, he would have been on screen 5 seconds at most.

For all I care, Isaiah may be part of the conversations, but Jones and Vogel should be the decision maker. But I wouldn’t be surprised if all this was only a stunt from him, just a Jalen Rose’s variation from trying to get attention. And the only way to make the news’ rounds was talking about Bol Bol like that. This era of hyperboles and hot takes chasing clicks will only give worse examples for the future. So hopefully this is a clear sign that Thomas doesn’t have the position he wants, because he didn’t care to keep the usual and grey corporate talk stand. Instead he went for making a ridiculous but newsworthy take.
