Tell me how that taco tastes?

Marc’s future endeavors are likely to include house hunting in Toronto. While D’Antoni was forbidden from rolling up into the Collangelo fold, no such stipulations exist stopping this former Suns assistant.
There are a few reasons why concealed weapons aren’t allowed…Mike. We can start with the usual suspects like Stephen Jackson and Jamal Tinsley, but lets not forget all-stars like Wince Carter, Paul Pierce and even Shaquille… who are all licensed to carry a concealed firearm - legally.
Alonzo and Shaquille are a lot alike. Yes they were interchangeable during Miami’s miracle title run atop the back of D-Wayde… but they also share a certain socialized characteristic commonly born among gifted physical specimens. Imagine riding the team bus back to middle school following another blow-out victory lead by your 6 foot 8 inch grade 7 center. He starts telling jokes. His jokes aren’t funny, but you laugh. Meet Alonzo, Shaq,and their extremely warped sense of reality. It’s not their fault, society made them that way. Unfortunately, we have to listen to them and their idiotic rhetoric even as they struggle through the decline and completion of their gifted careers.
The only thing that Shaquille ever invented was taco neck syndrome and that YouTube musical gem - ‘Tell me how my Ass Tastes!@”

It’s a good thing Madison Square Garden has security. Otherwise, Nate Robinson might have felt Mike D’Antoni’s wrath Wednesday night. Robinson was hit with a technical during the Knicks’ win over the Suns as he came off the bench and stepped onto the court and taunted Amare Stoudemire. “To be honest with you, that’s why you don’t have concealed weapons, ’cause I’d have shot him at that point,” D’Antoni said yesterday.

Mourning once demanded a female reporter, (now-Sacramento Bee columnist Ailene Voisin) who wasn’t even talking to him, leave the locker room while he changed clothes. Voisin told him off and things got ugly fast. A day later the league demanded Mourning apologize. All of us who’d faced the wrath of Zo enjoyed hearing that lesson in manners and humility.

“He’s a good player, but everything he’s done I’ve invented, so I’m not impressed,” Shaquille O’Neal said. “For me to get my eyes wide open about another big man, he’ll have to do something that I haven’t seen before or something that I haven’t invented. Everything that he’s done, I’ve invented it.” AP/Houston Chronicle
