Silly little Nate

Just when you think the Knicks couldn’t be any worse, couldn’t possibly be more unwatchable, one of their most exciting - and strangely effective - players goes and pulls a stunt like this … and totally redeems himself!

This is Nate Robinson - N-Robs, if you’re nasty - attempting to dunk on a fast break last night and, as he said, fire his team up. It turns out coach Isiah Thomas really enjoyed the attempt. He had this to say:

“I thought it was great,” Thomas said.

Oops. My fault. That was about Bob Knight slapping a dude in the face. Hey, these mistakes happen. Let’s see if we can’t find that Isiah quote … yep, here it is:

Isiah Thomas wasn’t happy and, in the next timeout, let Robinson hear it. “I don’t think we’ll see that again,” Thomas said.

Yeah Coach, because another instance like this, and you never know - people might actually stop taking the Knicks seriously.
