Knicks Get Run Out Of The Garden, Novak Talks Shit About Nate Robinson
NYDN - Steve Novak didn’t appreciate Nate Robinson mocking him and the Knicks by copying Novak’s signature “discount double check” sign after making two shots in the first half. Novak occasionally makes the sign after hitting a three-pointer. He does it in honor of Aaron Rogers and his hometown Green Bay Packers. “It warms my heart, it really does,” Novak said of the former Knick. “The best part about doing the belt is hearing the stories of all the little kids around the world that hit a 3-pointer and do the belt. You know, one day when little Nathan grows up, I hope that his dreams come true and he can be just like me .”
The Knicks have lost 6 of their last 10. They’re lucky they faced a shitty Orlando team and a Spurs team who was playing 4 games in 5 nights in the middle of that stretch or it could be really fucking ugly. They’re finally coming back to earth. Finally more where they should be. Not winning games based on real defense. Still crossing their fingers and hoping that they can shoot the lights out. At this point it boils down to Carmelo Anthony and JR Smith carrying this squad. Awesome. One of those guys is worried about his divorce with LaLa the former MTV VJ based on whatever variation of Urban Dictionary’s definition of Honey Nut Cheerios you choose to believe in. The other one of those guys is JR Smith. Thats not a recipe for success.
But hey at least Steve Novak has words for Nate Robinson! Listen I love Steve Novak. Heard a lot of great urban legends about him at Marquette and I love him coming off the bench and raining 3s. But when your team has lost 8 of 13, and you’re 2 or 3 games away from being the bottom of the playoff basement in the Eastern Conference, it might not be the time to talk shit to Nate fucking Robinson. You just got ran out of the gym by the Bulls (spare me the talk about the final score) and Steve Novak is babbling about “little Nathan” and a fucking football celebration made up by the quarterback of the Green Bay Packers. Lets stop worrying about wives getting creampied and stop worrying about Nate Robinson scoring 5 points in 10 minutes and the discount double check. Get back to taking immaculate care of the basketball and playing some real life defense. Thats what wins ballgames. The Knicks built themselves a great cushion the first 30 games of the year shooting the lights out, but thats not real life. Time to play real basketball.
raymond felton.
take a lap, then go to bed
Amare cant get any worse at D
KFC I love you bro but this is terrible. I’ve never called you a flip flopper but right now I can see where those people are coming from. And I already know your defense will be that you never said any of them suck but implying that the men on the court can’t get it done means you think you’re team isn’t good enough, shortly after you thought they were good enough. Am I at the beach? Flip Flop City.
Is that you Neil?
C’s with their fifth straight.
I guess it’s only a coincidence that the knicks are absolutely horrible now that amare is back?
a pro athlete should’t be sucking the dick of another sports team. Doing that discount double check thing makes him a complete joke and a poser.
Too many of these assholes want attention. Sure, some guys earned it, Kobe, Lebron, etc… but who the fuck is Novak? He’s a nobody, and a joke.
teams always go on slides. happens. The real problem is without felton they’re playing JR & Melo ISO every goddamn time down the court. their ball movement is non-existent compared to the first 20 games.
Somewhere, HHH and Vinnie Mac are probably planning to sue everyone that does the “discount double check” gesture.
OK, to sum it up….a white guy is better at basketball…BTW JR Smith went 4 for 17. Im sorry but my homosexual co-workers can do that.
Who the fuck does novak think he is? bro hardly made up the champ belt. Rodgers didnt either Im pretty sure thats been around for a while
sucks as much as when Malone used dunk and then make the “diamond-cutter” sign
Jason Kidd + Pablo Prigioni = 74
Not gona win many ball games when you can’t run a fast break, can’t defend the opposing teams fast break, and have one guy who can’t drive and another who refuses to shoot. Shut the fuck up KFC, you’re like ESPN with this post blowing shit out of proportion. Wait till Ray and Shump come back before you sound the alarms. Every team has slides.
ps Amare should go wash cars for Charles Oakley.
as a previous poster has said wwe started the discount double check belt thing. it was the challenger at the time Triple H putting on the belt. WWE greatest in sports entertainment. now for the rest of the posters on this particular blog. Know your role and shut your mouth
KFC remember when you used to be a Nets fan and you were all over Lebron’s dick? Or that time when you ripped on the Knicks and said they wouldn’t get Carmelo? Hire a Knicks blogger (not 610 again) and stop pretending.

Fuck Novak and fuck Aaron Rodgers. Kyle Vanden Bosch has been doing the belt thing (I refused to call it the “discount double check”) for at least a decade.
I remember when I was 7 years old in ’97 and seeing Shawn Micheals and HHH do that move Erin Rodgers does today. And who the fuck is Steve Novak?
Had that been three black analysts, say Charles, CWebb and Shaq over at TNT, that would have been a totally different ballgame in reaction to Novak’s comments.
^ Proof you can talk about blacks people and basketball without dropping an Nbomb in the comment section
I can’t stand the fact that people actually call that the “discount double check”.
@dudebro I agree, the fact that people started calling it the discount double check is like saying “yes I’m a brain less f’king tool who gets brainwashed by insurance commercials”…it’s also ridiculous that this knicks team is so pathetic that even their celebrations are knock offs.
Love Novak!
