It's a little gossip tidbit located in the New York Post's Page Six, so take this for what it's worth, but ...
April 29, 2007 -- TYRA Banks sure looked cozy with Knicks coach Isiah Thomas as they lunched at Club 66 in Midtown on Tuesday afternoon. "They looked like they were really enjoying themselves," our spy said. More interestingly, the sizzling supermodel, who arrived in her private limo, left the eatery with Thomas, jumping into the passenger seat of his SUV. Isiah says they're just friends, but ... this fits the profile of what interests him. Huge upside, but does show signs of being flawed.

For some reason, and I can't quite put my finger on why ... Isiah strikes me as the kind of guy who would buy a $6 million ring for a girl after she impressed him for only a short time. This kind of thinking can only lead to bad things, like divorce or Jerome James.
