"QUICKNESS" How acquired: Drafted in the first round in 1981 (second selection). Isiah Thomas may be more known for his infectious smile or off-court demeanor. But don't ever forget that he is still one of the quickest point guards in the NBA. In 1991-92, Thomas remained as consistent as ever. "Zeke" placed second on the Pistons in scoring (18.5 ppg.) and topped Detroit in assists and steals just a year after the most serious injury of his career. In 1990-91, Thomas missed 34 games because of a wrist injury. Thomas became the Pistons all-time leading scorer in 1991-92, surpassing Bob Lanier. He was already the Pistons leader in assists and steals. Two years earlier, Thomas was the MVP of the 1990 Finals in which Detroit won its second straight NBA title. In 1984-85, Thomas set a single-season record for assists in a season with 1,123 (since broken by John Stockton). Despite being an 11-year veteran, Thomas' game has not slowed a bit. In 1991-92, he was named to the NBA All-Star Team for the 11th straight season.
Jessie could be a second coach for the Miracle on the court. She served as an assistant coach (on the college level) between 1994-97, after being an All-ACC First Team member at Maryland in 1992 and '93.
