Quote of the Day: Metta World Peace loves Mr. Softee ice cream (not players)

Mister Softee 01

“We’ve got a lot of Mister Softees now. You remember Mister Softee in New York? They’re made right from the ice cream cone. A lot of these guys, a lot of basketball players are made right from the Mister Softee Ice Cream truck.

“I like Mister Softee, but I don’t like playing basketball with Mister Softee. I just like Mister Softee after a nice hot summer day.”

—The New York Knicks’ Metta World Peace, via Alan Hahn of the MSG Network, on Sulia.

This was in response to World Peace’s hilarious “run in” with Tyler Hansbrough Monday night, where Hansbrough looked ready to start something until his eyes bugged out when he realized it was World Peace with the hard foul. World Peace praised Hansbrough for his physical, old-school style of play, both to the media and on twitter.

World Peace compared Hansbrough to Matt Harpring. That’s a compliment.
