Happy Holidays
Posted: Friday, December 22 at 12:45 am ET by Nate Robinson
I hope you all have a happy holidays. Mine will be low-key as I will be hanging out with my family.
I got my son Nahmier a little truck-airplane thing that he can ride, and a couple of things for the backyard.
We'll have a nice mellow, Christmas, just have breakfast, open presents and stuff. Nothing too heavy.
On Tuesday I got a chance to spread a little Christmas cheer, and had a great time doing it.
I had a party for 150 kids at the Boys and Girls Club in Northern Westchester. We played bingo, pool and video games, ate pizza and ice cream, and had a magician and face painter, among other things. We took some photos and signed autographs, too.
I just wanted to do something special for the kids, you know? Especially when I can help some kids that don't have much. If I can put a smile on a their faces and lift their spirit, then that's a great gift for me.
Anyway, it was a great time and hopefully spread a little cheer!
I’m back!

Hey, I like what you're doing for the community and kids. Keep it up! Bring smiles to everyone :)

Nate, I love you. Get your head right on the court so Zeke will keep you around for a while.

Its very considerate of you to spend time and go out to the Boys and Girls Club. Im sure the kids will remember that for a long time. Giving your time to a worthy cause by far outweights just giving a donation.
Keep up the good work on and off the court.

I know this is kind of random, but I've heard Mike Breen mention a couple times that you'll be defending your title in the Slam Dunk contest...
Is this true??
Also, how does the selection for the contest work?? That's always been a mystery to me...

Nate,
Thanks for what you did for them kids. What you did that day proves who you are no matter what happens on the court. You were in a postion to help make some kids happy and thats all that matters. Thanks

For all Nate's fans: There is still time to vote for Nate to play in the All-Star game by submitting him as a write-in. Just go to the nba.com website and link to the ballot page. The write-in drop-down is at the bottom.
I've been voting for Jamal Crawford and David Lee as well. And sometimes for Curry. I vary my votes.

Nate, happy holidays! I'm sure you must be very anxious to get back on the court by now... I know we have missed seeing you on the court out here in Seattle. You never know when opportunities will present them self, so stay hungry and ready for when you get back on the court!

Yo Nate,
The 1st thing I did when I heard about your suspension was count out the games. I was SO hot when I saw that the 10th game was vs. the Sonics. You know I've had tickets for hella! Well, if you get a chance to read this, keep giving me a reason to brag about Rainier Beach at work!

Dear Nate,
Happy New Year!
I hope you have kept in shape like you said you would, since the time has come for you to get back on the floor at MSG. The Knicks need to win at home now!
I'm excited to see how you do when you return - I want you back! Focus, focus, focus. Good luck!
Were you able to go on the road trip? Those were nice wins in Portland and Seattle.
(too bad about UW vs AZ on Thurs, but it was exciting, too.... the Pac 10 rocks!)
All the best to you and your family and the team.
