    Good for Isiah.

    He needs to get his grounding back.

    A new generation will adore him.

    You will never hold down a certain unique gift of perception.

    Would have been nice...but the best mentor for Stuckey would actually be Joe himself.......he just needs to come down from the last row at the palace put on his short shorts and teach him to be the best 2 guard Stuckey can be and find another legit PG....:bow1:

    Joe D would be a good mentor for Stuckey only if Rodney wanted to learn how to use a PDA.

    Just saw the clip of the FIU dofus introducing Isiah as 'Isiah Thompson'. Did he give his first year's salary back to FIU before or after that happened?

    Not quite as dumb as the FIU guy but ESPN's Heather Cox interviewed Paul Allen during the Blazers-Nuggets game last night and made reference to his corporate experience with 'Micron'.

    Isiah coach career only begin, i hope he find his way coaching, he will be great forever, the future will say if Thomas or Laimbeer can coach pistons someday.

    Next seasson pistons fans return,unless presumible losses seasson,it could be interesting see new first steps of new project.
