Nate Robinson jumps over Biff on Letterman, Video. Nate Robinson is just a freak. I know jumping over Biff is not the same as dunking on Dwight Howard, but this is pretty cool. We also learn, via this clip, that he gave the slam dunk money to his Mom and Dad. What a good kid. Hat [...]
Dang! 5'8'' slam dunk champ? 5'6'' RB playmaker? Maybe my Olympic beach volleyball dreams aren't so crazy! 5ft is looking taller and taller every day! lol
He really impressed me with that dunk over Dwight Howard. Nate is very athletic and strong. Dwight didn't come with it like he did last year. Anyways, it was entertaining and I hope Nate and Dwight will participate in next years. Although, they will have some heavy competiton with Lebron James.
Nate, much love on winning the dunk contest but um..err... I don't know how to say this but I wonder if hiring Rainbow Brite as your personal stylist was the best decision. I'm just sayin' Boo Boo, you might want to rethink that one. lol
NATE IS ONE OF THOSE GUYS TO BE RECOND WITH, IN (BASKETBALL) AND THE FUTURE OF THE N.B.A.! I LOVE THE ATHELET IN HIM! HE'S BETTER THAN THAT ENERGIZER BATTERY (HE KEEPS GOING AND GOING AN GOINGGGGGGGGGGG!

Dwight Howard, Goo Goo Gah Gah Dunk, Video. What is the Goo Goo Gah Gah dunk? That is, of course, where Dwight Howard slams the ball while he has Nate Robinson cradled in his arms like a little baby. Check out this video for some awesome trash talk.
So, if you didn't watch the video, this is what Nate Robinson does at the free throw line. First, he touches his ears. He does this because he is a fan of the movie Bad Boys II and Martin Lawrence touched his ears in order to get comfortable. I kind of like the idea, it's unique, just like his ...
Some may say it is too early to start picking on Andrew Bynum. I say, tell that to the Lakers’ opponents.It doesn’t matter whether they are big or small. It seems like guards and forwards alike are all picking on the young Laker center.The other night, little Nate Robinson of the Knicks ...

Nate Robinson (ranked #44 on the year/#5 over the last 10 games)
? Besides tagging Dwight Howard with his balls in the dunk contest, the
second best thing that Robinson has done this month is become a scoring
machine, with games of 29, 32, 41, 26, and 32 points since the break.
Random Musings: I hope the World Baseball Classic doesn't cause any clubhouse chemistry problems within the Mariners, hopefully everyone will be able to come together before opening day and thrive in a positive clubhouse environment. I'm over missing the Sonics. Besides, Nate Robinson is lighting it up and the Huskies are way awesome. Although, I look at my 2009 Sonics Calendar...
