This Is Why We Love Nate Robinson

Cross half court, call for the ball (preferably begin before actually crossing half court). Wander over to the sideline, immediately call for the ball again. Clap your hands while continuing to call for the ball. Confuse Ty into giving you the ball, incredulously. Wave off any assistance from teammates. Put Hansbrough on the leash, drill step-back three in his face.

Nate is the worst. Nate is so much fun. Oh and also, Nate is not an idiot. He noticed that Hansbrough got stuck on him immediately, and drifted even farther outside to maintain the mismatch while pointing and laughing at him. It's a uniquely Nate Robinson play—respect the hustle, but only after making sure he caught your C'mon, man eye-roll.
