Evil Empire I am shocked that this kind of thing would happen with such a close-knit, well-coached group.-
chone Especially between two guys who are so well known for their charity work and locker room presence.

Why We Love The Knicks 2.19.08
Hardwood Paroxysm —
The best part is the tagline on the video. "Afterwards, the Knicks score a record 23 points in overtime for the win." Yup. That's the Knicks.
ZACH RANDOLPH AND NATE ROBINSON THROWING STUFF
You Been Blinded - Now in Dazzling HD —
Zach Randolph and Nate Robinson were imitating teenage girls on the Knicks sideline last night. The two had a disagreement during a timeout of last night’s Knicks-Wizards game, that ended with water and a towel being thrown. The New York Knicks hit rock bottom ...
Teammates Loving Teammates
Intentional Foul —
Ah, the New York Knickerbockers. What can you say that hasn’t already been said? There’s so much wrong with the franchise, it’s hard to pick a starting point… but if you are late to the party, here’s a good spot:
What we have above are Nate Robinson and Zach Randolph expressing their love for one another via thrown water (Randolph) and and a retaliatory strike with a Gatorade towel (Robinson). I’ll say this for Nate, he doesn’t back down from anybody, regardless of size (Robinson is only 5-9, Randolph is 6-9).
Good times.

Knicks Update: Knicks beat Wiz; Curry For Carter?
Stop Mike Lupica —
Quick update on the Knicks. First off: Found that via Son of Dippin', who had this classic caption: "That's lead paint". Watched last night's game against the Wizards... here's pretty much all you have to know: Eddy Curry is definitely on his way out. Isiah Thomas has decided that only one of the Zach Randolph/Eddy Curry duo is going to play, and it appears to be Randolph. It's actually the right call, in the end. Randolph scores, rebounds, and has a nice passing touch (not reflected in his assists numbers). He just needs to be quicker in his decision making right now. The ...
Wiz Celebrity Sightings
D.C. Sports Bog —
Wiz Celebrity Sightings I'm not sure how long this feature has existed, but the official Celebrity Sightings Gallery on the Wizards' site is the best possible way to spend 52 seconds at work. It includes a comprehensive look at the 26 celebrities who have been spotted at the Verizon Center this year, and it pretty much ruthlessly makes clear that we could use a few more celebrities in our lives. For the record, exactly half of the 26 are either current or past stars of local sports teams, or are actually employed by the Wizards. (Those would be Cal Ripken, Ryan Zimmerman, Darrell Green, Shawn Springs, Chris Samuels, Clinton ...
A Retort To My Randy Moss Idea
Foul Balls —
I knew yesterday when I wrote that the Bears should try and sign Randy Moss that not everybody was going to agree with my opinion. Moss is just too much of a polar figure amongst football fans to think everybody would go along with the idea. Plus, I'm kind of an idiot, so if everybody agreed with me all the time, this world would be in a lot of trouble. Gepetto from Luol's Dong was so adamantly against my theory that a comment on the post just didn't suffice, and he was kind enough to write a whole post about it ...
Zach Randolph and Nate Robinson are brothers
The Postmen // A Sports Blog // Chicago, IL. —
Here is Zach Randolph and Nate Robinson enjoying some quality time together during a stoppage in play. You may say throwing water at another individual is childish, immature. I would say you are wrong, fair friend.
Clearly, these ballplayers have a special brotherly bond and thus are fighting like real, true brothers. This video, perhaps above all us, explains why the Knicks have gelled as a team this year under the great leadership of Isiah Thomas. (Za-za-za-zing!)

If you want to prove the San Antonio Spurs are the greatest outfit in basketball, I guess all those titles are exhibit A. But these hilariously self-deprecating musical theater videos are exhibit B. Don't stop watching 'til you see the Coyote take a tumble on the bleachers. Video of a little timeout squabble in which Zach Randolph douses teammate Nate Robinson with water, and Robinson hucks a towel at Randolph. Afterwards, both players played it down. After jumping Malik Rose in the shower in late 2005, Nate Robinson is on record as willing to scrap with much bigger teammates. If you see Jason Richardson staring off into ...

THE KNICKS ARE DOING GREAT
With Leather - Sports news and gossip, panda sex, and the occasional Toonces the driving cat Photoshop —
Gosh, who could have possibly imagined that players on the Knicks would ever act like bratty children to each other? It runs counter to all the discipline and leadership that Isiah Thomas has ingrained into the team. And I never expected Zach Randolph and Nate Robinson, of all people, to get into a spat. Those guys have always been such little angels. [NY Post via You Been Blinded]
Zach Randolph : Incapable Of Picking On Someone His Own Size
Can't Stop The Bleeding —
Perhaps Isiah Thomas has become so immune to the chaos around him that he figured the unrest on the Knicks bench was simply another day at the office. In two games this season, Thomas and Richardson went back-and-forth on the bench with Herb Williams once having to restrain the head coach from going after Quentin. Earlier this season, Randolph, upset over being pulled from a game, refused Thomas’ request to sit next to him.
You would think that after being off four days the Knicks would be cordial to one another for at least a few games. Instead, they are already sick of one another and just ...

Zach Randolph and Nate Robinson need a nap
Ball Don't Lie —
I'm not sure if it was because Eddy Curry ate all the cookies, or because Isiah struggled to get through Dora the Explorer. Whatever the reason, Zach Randolph and Nate Robinson definitely missed halftime-naptime last night. Jeesh! (And the best part about the whole ordeal? The Knicks won!)
THIS Is Why The Knicks Are So Good
Sports Blog - football, basketball, and baseball —
When you look at the Spurs, you look at a team with team work, and you think that’s got to be a big reason they’re so good. When you look at the Knicks, you look at a franchise in shambles, with guys that generally hate the other guys they play with. For example: The above.

...AND DON'T FEED HIM AFTER MIDNIGHT. KINGSTON FALLS ON HIGH ALERT. PHOEBE CATES, WHERE ARE YOU!? NATE ROBINSON IS PROBABLY A GREMLIN. When Nate Robinson and water mix, shenanigans ensue. After he attacked a butt naked Malik Rose in the shower for seemingly no reason last year, Nate Robinson reacted erratically when the emotionally unhinged Zach Randolph sprayed him with water during a team huddle. Robinson threw his towel at Mr. Misdemeanor and made a move to punch him out- seemingly forgetting that Randolph has about a two foot height advantage, a two ton weight ...

I originally was going to write a book here, but at this point, it's not worth the effort, just because there were so many problems with this game. I'm frustrated with the outcome, frustrated with the way the game was lost, and most of all, frustrated that our two best ...
Zach Randolph douses Nate Robinson with water [Video]
Hail Mary Jane —
Ok so it’s been highly publicized that the Knicks are the Osbourn family of the NBA. They are all paid way too much, they put out mediocre efforts on a nightly basis and they are completely dysfunctional but this one takes the cake.
In the Knicks latest crazy story, Zach Randolph and Nate Robinson got into an argument during last nights game against the Wizards. Randolph responded by throwing a cup of water on Nate. Nate threw his towel at Zach and the scuffle continued. Nate Robinson doesn’t back down from anyone though, even if the guy is a foot taller than him. If you remember, he was right in the middle of that Knicks/Nuggets scuffle. ...

Maybe this is what the Knicks need to be winners because last night they beat Washington in overtime by 13. Share This ...

Truth About It - Washington Wizards Blog —
Being in Argentina since early Sunday morning, Wednesday was my first chance to catch up with the internet world. I'm not going to even think about checking my blog roll on Google Reader. The unread count could be in the thousands by now. Nope, I'm sticking to the basics: ESPN.com, the Washington Post and Bullets Forever. Upon seeing the score of the Wizards-Knicks game via ESPN Deportes on Tuesday night, my palm may have smacked against my forehead, but my head did not shake in disbelief..... especially after not seeing Caron Butler's name among the leading scorers in the bottom line. He sat out again? He should have had plenty of ...
Another Night, Another Embarrassment
From Courtside —
With 19 seconds left in the 4th quarter and the score tied, what goes on in the NY Knicks team huddle: I guess the Knicks players didn’t miss each other too much over the All-Star break. But don’t worry… According to Zach Randolph everything is fine, “It was a misunderstanding, Nate and I talked about it." Whew…I got nervous for a second. Oh yeah, and the Knicks lost by 40 tonight to the 76ers. But hey, I’m sure its fine. Prior to hiring a new GM, James Dolan should make sure to read this article: Selecting a General Manager ...
This is What a Disfunctional Team Looks Like
The Off-Color Commentator —
And naturally, Isiah Thomas went on the record saying he was happy that this fight happened. Something about raw emotions being a good thing. All I know is this: I'm starting to think that Isiah might actually be some sort of demi-god, because otherwise I really don't have an explanation for how the man can still have a job. Also, in the video above, there is a sudden and unexpected clip of a blonde woman in a leopard print dress holding a sign beneath a poster of Jim Morrison. I don't know about you, but that kind of caught me off guard.

New York Drama
NBA Noise —
You didn't really think I'd let this slide did you? If you have any history of reading this blog, you might have guessed that one of my favorite topics is the turbulent franchise of the New York Knicks. Stephon Marbury plays the lead role on their real-life soap opera, Isiah Thomas would be your best supporting actor, but even smaller-role players get episodes dedicated to their antics. So I present to you the Zach Randolph and Nate Robinson frown festival. Where was Stephon when you needed him? If you want more Zach/Nate drama, here's the animated version. What blows my mind is that the Knicks actually came back to win this game. Go figure. ...
