Isaiah Thomas' time with the Cleveland Cavaliers this season did not go well.

Acquired from the Boston Celtics last summer, Thomas was limited to just 15 games by a hip injury. Before and after his recovery, Thomas was at the center of team controversy until he was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers at the deadline in February.

With the Cavaliers now down 2-0 in the NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors, Thomas found another opportunity to take a shot at his former team.

Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live! with Hall of Famer Isiah Thomas in a game called Generation Gap, the younger Thomas struggled to correctly answer questions until seemingly giving up and saying, "I'm like the Cavs. I'm gonna get swept."

Thomas missed the first three months of the season while recovering from hip surgery. When he returned to the court, he struggled to reclaim the explosiveness and swagger that made him an MVP candidate during his final season with the Celtics.

Watch the full Jimmy Kimmel Live! segment:

The diminutive guard averaged 14.7 points and 4.5 assists for the Cavs, while shooting 36.1% from the field overall and 25.3% from three-point range. Thomas appeared in 17 games for the Lakers after being traded and averaged 15.6 points and 5.0 assists, while shooting 38.3% from the field and 32.7% from long range.

Thomas is an unrestricted free agent this summer.
