Video: What Do Toney Douglas Do?

If you watched Knicks Summer League action, you probably saw the interview that took Posting and Toasting by storm. Toney first used the line in Vegas, during a halftime conversation with MSG's Tina Cervasio. When asked how he might adjust to NBA play, Toney replied that, among other things, he'd simply "do what Toney Douglas do". Naturally, the P&T community was enthralled. I added the DWTDD button to the side bar and encouraged any and all to heed that sage advice.

We needed clarification, though, on how best to follow in Toney's footsteps. At training camp here in Saratoga Springs, I sought Toney out for some tips on his way of life. Here's the short li'l video.

You heard it from the man himself. No matter what else you do or how you do it, do what Toney Douglas do. (Directed by Jacob Wolf).

I'm so glad we got Douglas

He really contributes to the team’s “swag” factor. Now Nate is doesn’t have to carry that burden all by himself.

I've won multiple titles with the Knicks on 2k9, which means I have better credentials than Isiah did.

So funny Seth

You look so terrified.

Were you worried he was going to say “What do Toney Douglas do? Beat up Jewish undergraduates. That’s what he do.”

That said, I’m delighted you had the huevos to ask the question and Toney had the good humor to answer.

you know?

on the whole, i was far less scared then i was during interviews last year. toney, in particular, is really friendly and approachable, though i wouldn’t say he’s the most approachable guy on the team. that honor goes to the subject of tomorrow’s interview, which is my personal favorite and the last of this year’s videos.

anyway, i really didn’t feel especially intimidated this week. maybe i’m just a generally scared person and you’re picking up on that.

My students

I’m a public school teacher, and I read this post on my lunch break, and so at the end of class today, I fervently told my students to make sure that they “do what Toney Douglas do.”

They stared back at me with big eyes.

Then the bell rang.

Yeah,

we may have solved the “What should the T-Shirts have on them?” problem.

Hell yeah!! I’d buy one …hell I might even sign up for the Tallahassee distributorship ;-)

I just finally got home from work where they block youtube

And got to see this. That was awesome. Maybe I’ll take a stab at t-shirt design….
