Pulling pranks a messy business
Posted: Tuesday, December 6 at 03:36 am ET by Nate Robinson
Life can be tough as a rookie sometimes because your teammates get to pick on you a little bit. After I hit the game-winner against the 76ers, I had to go home in a wrinkled suit. They tied my suit up with tape, and put my shoes somewhere. They did a whole bunch of stuff. It was really wrinkled, and I had to wear it home.
After the Miami game, some guys put some cream cheese in my shoes. One of the vets put it in the bottom of my shoes and I couldn’t get it out so I just left it in there. I had to go on the plane back to New York with cream cheese in my shoes and socks.
If I had to pick one, I’d say the cream cheese was probably better to deal with because it didn’t mess up my suit. But I’m hoping they’re done.
I don’t know yet who’s been getting me with the pranks. Since I don’t know, I’m going to have to get back everyone on my team! But I have some suspicions. Matt Barnes is No. 1. Barnes and Eddy Curry. Those are my two suspects right now. I think they might be behind the suit prank, too.
I’m not sure what my full revenge will be yet, but I did get Barnes a couple days ago by putting itching powder in his practice gear. I got it in his socks, his shorts, his spandex, everywhere. When they get me, I’ve got to get them back!

Nate, keep up the good work! I'm A Celts fan from NY and the Knicks haven't won the big dance since the year I was born but you seem to give me a little more reason to shift teams. Don't worry about the pranks, they are all in good fun and later you will be doing the same things to another rookie. It's part of paying dues. Keep ya head up tough guy!

Nate,
Try to be honored to be acknowledged by your teammates, pranks or praise. You are still the TOP DAWG on any court, admired & loved by all! Keep kicking it on the court and making the Husky program shine. Best wished on the rest of your career!

You and Channing are the future. I am big knick fan -way back. I would like to see David Lee play some more. I would like to see Stef gone. I think he is holding back the team. Keep hustling, I voted you on the All-Star-
