Excerpt: Isiah Lord Thomas III (nicknamed "Zeke") (pronounced ; born April 30, 1961) is the men's basketball coach for the FIU Golden Panthers, and a retired American professional basketball player who played point guard for the Detroit Pistons of the National Basketball Association (NBA) from 1981 until 1994.

Product Description
In The Book of Isiah, the career of the NBA's most successful player-turned-basketball-executive comes to life. From Thomas' early years as a member of a close-knit family trying to survive on Chicago's mean streets, to his years at Indiana University under the stern tutelage of the legendary Bobby Knight, to his stellar seasons with the "Bad Boys" of the Pistons, Thomas' devotion to the game of basketball is chronicled, as is the development of his canny sense of timing both on and off the court. With the newest chapter being written in the boardrooms of the Toronto Raptors, The Book of Isiah details every aspect of big-time hoops for fans of all ages. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars A boring love sonnet to Isiah Thomas
I knew it was a bad sign when in chapter one, I was wishing I was through with the book.I always want to finish books, for the sense of accomplishment and to acquire knowledge, but this was different: I wanted to be done because I wanted to move on to a good book.
I picked up the book because I enjoy reading the late 80s Pistons.Thomas is indisputably one of the 5 greatest point guards in history (along with Oscar Robertson, Magic Johnson, Bob Cousy, and John Stockton).He won a NCAA championship, and 2 NBA championships, and was named to the 1980 Olympic team.That alone makes his life interesting.Toss in the amazing performances (16 points in 91 seconds, 1990 Finals MVP, etc), controversy (Larry Bird was only good because he's white), and the jobs (NBA legend on the court, GM of the Raptors), and I was looking forward to jumping in.So what went wrong?
First, this is not a biography, it is an homage, practically a love sonnet.It is written by a guy who sees no fault in Thomas.I believe the author is a Toronto journalist, and obviously a Raptors fan.The book was written right before the Raptors' 2nd season.In jocking the Raptors, Challen has to jock the man who runs the team.Look at the book's subtitle: "The Rise of a Basketball Legend."At the time the book was published, Thomas already was a basketball legend.Challen is trying to paint him to be the next Jerry West and Red Auerbach of the front office after a mediocre season on the job.
The first problem is that the book is incomplete.Challen lightly glosses over Thomas' first 7 NBA seasons, and really only spends significant time on the 1989 season.After a little more glossing, he jumps to Thomas' tenure with the Raptors.He never mentions any of his legendary scoring bursts, such as the 16 points in 91 seconds at the end of regulation of the deciding playoff game in the New York playoff series in 1984.He does go over the Larry Bird controversy and the all-star freeze out of Michael Jordan that Thomas orchestrated, and he mentions the 1992 Olympic snub, but never really dwells much on the background.He also never mentions how Thomas blocked the pay-per-view game between Jordan and Johnson, and how that came back to bite him in the Olympics.
Challen praises Thomas' every decision as Raptors' GM without stating the obvious: he screwed up on the hiring of Brenden Malone as coach.Had he spent more time interviewing Malone, then he would have learned that Malone did not share his vision on how to coach an expansion team.He never chastises Thomas on his blatant favoritism towards all-things Pistons, even when the people were unqualified.Because Thomas had a couple of endorsements, he makes it sound like Thomas was a savvy businessman ready to move into a GM role, rather than state the obvious: the owner went to Indiana University with Thomas and was star struck.It gets funnier in retrospect, as you see Thomas consistent failures since the book was written: he bankrupted the Continental Basketball Association after he purchased it.He failed as coach of the Pistons and Knicks and was a disaster as GM of the Knicks.His failures are so legendary that asatire website (sportspickle) wrote a story that George W. Bush had named Thomas as Michael Brown's replacement to head F.E.M.A.It is obvious that Thomas had done nothing to earn the responsibility to run a franchise, but Challen never ever considers this.(The parallels between Thomas and Jordan are eerily similar, and both were miserable failures in the front office.)
The next problem with the book is the editing.I assume "paycheque" is a Canadian spelling, and that is fine, but the book is full of editing errors and Challen cannot spell "offense" and "defense."Perhaps this is because he is the guy who holds the picket fence at the games.
It is obvious that Challen is no basketball expert.He says that Thomas played in the Big 10 conference and then adds it is now known as the "Big 12".Um.... no.He says that Thomas was named NBA MVP three times.He was never MVP.He writes the book in such simplistic terms that it seems as if his audience has no clue about basketball, which maybe true -- I am guessing it was written for Canadians who are not familiar with basketball, as a way of selling the Raptors to the public.Furthermore, by deifying the head man of the Raptors, the sell becomes easier.If this was his purpose, I hoped he succeeded, because beyond that context, the book is an unbelievable bore.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Great Book on Isiah
I have always dug Isiah Thomas.The Brother overcame alot of Obstacles&still does to this day.he doesn't always get the Credit&Love he so deserves.He was a Great Player.I Loved it whenHe&The Pistons Beat The Over-Inflated Bulls.ZEKE was always the man.HePlayed with So Much Heart&Determanation.Now as Coach of The Pacers itwill be Interesting to see where the Next Journey Takes Him.I Really Digthe Fact that he is about Black Ownership.it's Time to have a Sayon&Off The Court.He has had his Ups&Downs but has still Remained aClass Act.this Book Reflects so Much About this Man.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent biography of Isiah.
I have been a fan of Isiah and the Pistons for a long time now.This was the first biography of Isiah that I have read and I enjoyed it very much.I knew a lot about Isiahs childhood but also found out a lot more readingthis book. The writer seems to spend a lot of time discussing Isiahs timewith the Raptors, I would have liked to read more about his time with thePistons.I also would have liked to see a mention of the 70+ students thatIsiah put through college out of his own pocket.Overall I really enjoyedthis book, if your an Isiah fan you need to pick this one up.

5-0 out of 5 stars very well written it tells of both the good and bad of a sup
I thought the book was very well written. It allowed the reader to see that Isiah is a superstar that pulled himself up out of poverty and despair, but he is also a human being (which we sometimes forget about staratheletes) with human failings, fears, and needs.I is the best 20 bucks Ihave spent in a long time.I would suggest to anyone who has ever lookedat athletes in a negative light to read this book it details the life ofgrowing up poor and not allowing it to rule your life.Isiah, like so manyof our black males in America grew up poor and without his father, but hedid not allow himself to wallow in it, and that is a lesson that many ofyoung people need to adhere to.

Tamara Randolph, Rich, Va.

4-0 out of 5 stars Very realistic presentation of Isiah Thomas
I found the book very realistic and accuratedisplay of Isiah Thomas. It chronicles the life ofIsiah Thomas, documenting the good and the bad of Isiah Thomas. I'm a Detroit Pistons fan, and was glad to see the author and the publisher didn'tpresent a sugar-coated version of his life, which isn't what I can't say sadly for Bob Greene's Rebound, which is a biography on Michael Jordan. This biography covers the part of Jordan's life when he was away from basketball and in baseball. I felt I should mention the Jordan book, since they were rivals for a long time, but it appears they have buried the hatchet. It should be interesting to read now, considering that he is no longer the Raptors' GM, and is currently works for NBC as a color commentator. Thanks to Paul Challen and ECW Press for taking the high road andpresenting something that is actually worthy ofreading from cover to cover, unlike the Greene schlock book on Jordan, which never criticizes him at any point from what I can see. I hope ECW Press continues to present sports biographies like this in a realistic portrayal. The Greene biography looked at Jordan's problems always with a positive light on Jordan, and don't talk about his gambling. I found the reading about how Isiah's brothers could have been NBA stars interesting reading, especially the one brother, Henry Lord, who was supposed to possess outstanding ability. It was interesting to see how Isiah overcame many odds to get to where he was, and it perhaps ithelps understand why he is the person he is today. ... Read more

Isiah Thomas Pocket Magic

This book was based on Isiah Thomas, which was a basketball player.Isiah didn't have a lot of money growing up. In 1981the Pistons drafted Isiah Thomas.In 1982 Isiah started in his first NBA All-Star game.

I think Isiah is a good roll model.He is sweet, kind, friendly, responsible, and smart.He likes basketball he says it is his hobby.

The conflict was that Isiah's mother raised him and eight other children by herself.She didn't make a lot of money.

They solved the conflict because Isiah went to the NBA and made 400,000 a year.He bought his mother a house in Chicago.When he visited he would take his mother out of the bad parts of Chicago.

I would recommend this book to people who like to read about people's lives. Another reason why I would recommend this book would be no matter what situation your in you can always come out on top. ... Read more

I highly recommend this book to anyone that has followed the pistons throughout the years. This book talks about the pistons in their championship run in 88-89. It has a nice summary of each game throughout the playoffs and some critical plays and moments that helped get them there. It also has some very good insight from Isiah Thomas who scored an amazing 16 points in a measely 93 seconds. It talks about the huge rivalry between the pistons celtics, pistons lakers, and pistons and bulls. I learned a lot of things that went on specially behind the scenes. There is also a bunch of pictures from great moments throughout the playoffs. One of Kareem Abdul Jabaar shooting his famous skyhook in his final game. And one of Jordan vs. Isiah in a jump ball. I also learned a lot from reading each players statistics which are located in the bacfk of the book and in some pictures. I never knew who contributed and who was all even on the team. So as u can see i would high recommend this book and enjoyed reading it very much. If you have any questions just email me. ... Read more
