When you see the headline “Source: Clippers eyeing Isiah as coach, GM,” you’d figure it was coming from the Onion. Only in a parallel universe would this make any sense.
Clippers Reach Out To Isiah Thomas To Be New Coach, GM. No, We’re Not Kidding
Remarkably, this headline is not from the Onion, but rather from Jeff Goodman of FoxSports.com, a respected college basketball writer.

NBA Hall of Famer and current men’s basketball coach at Florida International University Isiah Thomas has emerged as one of the candidates to run the Los Angeles Clippers.
