That title is actually an anagram for "Knicks Anagrams." Catchy, no?
Anyway, I've long thought that anagrams were as interesting and as predictive as astrology. But, long breaks between preseason -- preseason! -- games will drive a bored man to desperate measures. So I ran the notables from the NYK roster through the anagram machine and here is what I found. It's more revealing than I expected. (But still not very revealing.)
Danilo Gallinari = An Invalid Inlaid Gorilla
Wilson Chandler = Swollen and Rich
Eddy Curry = Cruddy Rye
Nate "The Great" Robinson = Threatener on Boasting
Larry Hughes = Harsher, Ugly
Chris Duhon = Shod Urchin
Al Harrington = Rang in Harlot
Toney Douglas = Youngest Load
Jordan Hill = Jill Hard-on
Darko Milicic = Acidic or Milk
Jared Jeffries = Jar if Fed Jeers
and my personal favorite
David Lee = Evil Dead (how can that not be his P&T approved nickname?)
Bonus Anagrams:
Isiah Thomas = I am a hot hiss
Stephon Marbury = As Nymph or Brute
Extra Bonus Anagrams:
Posting and Toasting = Stagnant Idiot Pongs
Seth Rosenthal = Threaten Slosh (accurately describes most undergrads, I think)

about the d-lee name
his nickname is, and forever shall be, “shallow water.” kenny smith tested, kenny smith approved.

lee scores all his points from 5 feet and in
that’s why kenny came up with it.
now d-lee can actually hit a jumper, but this was 100% true a few years ago.

not to poke a hole in this exercise...
…because i love it, but where’s the “v” in “danilo gallinari”?
Outstanding point
I couldn’t read my own handwriting. It’s actually “An Inlaid Gorilla”

That's amazing!
I love how many of them actually match the players character. I fully endorse
“Evil Dead!” I think I’ll go listen to “Zombie” by the Cranberries now.

So true
Just like Eddy Curry, Cruddy Rye is also worthless, moldy, and filled with carbohydrates.
