Evening, dads. It's the Knicks and Celtics in Boston tonight. New Knick gunslinger Eddie House will be making his return to the (other) Garden, while our old friend Nate Robinson will suit up in green and white for the first time. Speaking of which, I've thought quite a bit since Thursday about giving Nate a fitting tribute and farewell, and just haven't really had it in me yet. Nate's an incredible talent and a guy who was relentlessly upbeat through every strange twist of his journey in New York, and I would like to commemorate his Knick career at some point. For now, look no further than Bandwagon Knick, where you can find an absolute gem of a tribute to the lilliputian.
I don't know that I have much more to say that isn't said by BK, but I'll keep mulling it over. For what it's worth, I'm pretty positive that Nate is going to light the Knicks up tonight. It won't upset me too much. Nothing Nate's said about the whole ordeal bothers me too much either. I'm really happy that the little dude has a chance to prove his worth on a contending team.
In other news, Paul Pierce will not play, which seems fair, since Eddy Curry won't play either.
For now, get comfortable, listen to some Electric Mayhem (one of my favorite songs from one of my all-time favorite movies), and pray the Knicks look better against the Celtics than they did last night.
