Steve Novak clowns on Nate Robinson, calls him 'Little Nathan'

Found January 12, 2013 on Next Impulse Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Steve Novak,  Nate Robinson
TEAMS: New York Knicks,  Chicago Bulls

Via Cosby Sweaters:

If the NBA’s resident Discount Double-Checker is going to run his mouth, it might carry more weight if his team could actually beat the team he’s speaking ill of. The Chicago Bulls built up a 20-plus point lead Friday night against the New York Knicks — in Madison Square Garden, no less — before easing up on the gas pedal en route to a 108-101 win. Afterwards, 3-point specialist Steve Novak fired a shot at Bulls guard (and former Knick) Nate Robinson, referring to the diminutive spark plug as “Nathan”, and informing him that he can be “just like me” with his on-court antics. Well, “Nathan” got the last laugh, which is what the Bulls seem to be doing lately, thanks to a 3-0 record this season against their big-city rival.

Nate Robinson saw the response and took to Twitter to throw a little jab of his own.

POTD 1/10/13: DeMarcus Cousins on Bernard James

Via NBA 24/7 365  |  January 11, 2013
Today happens to be one of those days where I wish I could choose two winners, as both JR Smith and DeMarcus Cousins are entirely deserving of this particular POTD.  Each player threw down one of two remarkable slam dunks that, although very different, are almost equally impressive.  Smith took flight from the fringe of the painted area and, having launched off of his right foot...
