Rasheed Wallace is back in the NBA and so is his mouth. On Tuesday night during the New York Knicks’ win over the Orlando Magic, Rasheed threw a bit of minor heckling toward Orlando’s Arron Afflalo as Afflalo was attempting a free throw in the first quarter.
“Yeah, AFLAC!” Wallace yelled as Afflalo missed only his second free throw of the season.
If Afflalo’s nickname wasn’t already “AFLAC,” it is now. If nothing else, it appears Wallace is going to be able to provide some comic relief for the Knicks this season. That’s much better than scoring on his own basket.

According to New York Daily News reporter Frank Isola, “Thankfully, the girl waved as she was wheeled off the court. (Better yet, she gave Berman of the Post the finger).” As you can see, paramedics took care of the poor woman. Filed under: Basketball

For Thanksgiving this year, I will say that I am thankful that Rasheed Wallace is back in my life. This is why it's important that Rasheed continues to play basketball, even if its for 10 minutes per game because no one else can bring this must confusion and awesomeness rolled into one than the Ball Don't Lie himself.
I kind of like the nickname Aflac...

Ronnie Brewer: A Solid Pickup for the New York Knicks

The theatrics that enveloped why the Knicks front office let Lin go without an ounce of return was the nucleus of the Knicks brand. However, the franchise did make some solid, underrated moves and one of those moves was signing former Chicago Bull Ronnie Brewer.

Only five games into the 2012-2013 NBA season and the New York Knicks find themselves the only undefeated team in the league – all five games being played sans the services of Amar’e Stoudemire or Iman Shumpert. When Stoudemire returns, immediately, I anticipate an impending imbalance within the structure of the offense. Of course, quite the opposite could occur. Amar’e could...
