I ‘Aint Afraid Of No Ghosts…

…but apparently, some of the Knicks are.

Via the Daily News:

“The Knicks were afraid, very afraid. And it had nothing to do with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

“For two days, several players had trouble sleeping because they were convinced that their downtown hotel is haunted.

“I definitely believe it,” Jared Jeffries said. “The place is haunted. It’s scary.”

Eddy Curry claims he slept for only two hours Sunday night because he couldn’t stop thinking about ghosts roaming the hotel.

“They said it happened on the 10th floor and I’m the only one staying on the 10th floor,” Curry said. “That’s why I spent most of my time in (Nate Robinson‘s) room. I definitely believe there are ghosts in that hotel.”

I’d have been more afraid of Durant and Westbrook running circles around us…at least there is proof that that happened

    Is Gallo Italian for ghost? Is that why he disappeared out there?

    Danilo Gallinari reportedly saw ghosts, zombies, witches and vampires in his room – full service.

    hahaha they put Eddy Curry on the only floor that is haunted. That is hilarious!

  • Starkstastic

    Can’t say I was expecting to read about ghosts when I came here this morning. In an unrelated note, Tommy looks like a normal-sized Vern Troyer. Anybody with me?

    Did you notice that Jeffries and Curry were the only ones affected? It was Donnie Walsh dressed in a bedsheet trying to scare them away from the Knicks…..

    “Booooooooooo…..if you pick up your player options……..I will haunt you foreeeeeeeeeever…………hahahahahaha………..”:

    Let’s hope it worked…..fingers crossed……….

    Isola is so lazy in his columns. is this the best he could come up with?

    he likely wrote this in the off day between TV appearances.

    Isola Is Horrible. When is the last Article he Wrote that Was Positive about the Knicks? Hes A JOKE!

    funny….the two guys we want to get rid of only saw the ghost. People gotta think of better ideas to get rid of those two.

    How about planting a bunch of guns in their locker rooms?

    LMAO!

    Not even that with Isola, but I don’t think he actually follows the NBA anymore. He wrote earlier about Tyson Chandler still being on the Hornets after we had already played them earlier in the year with Okafor. Then a few weeks ago he wrote about some possible trade that was actually impossible to get done because the Knicks would be taking back too much salary. He is crazy, although he still seems to be able to outscoop other beat writers. This story is hilarious though, I think the Thunder players dress up as ghosts because they have nothing else to do at night so they scare the other teams players.
