    Why do you say that? You don't know what set him off, what was said to him either by a fan or by Knicks owner James Dolan.

    I like that in his 50s it took a dozen guys to move him off the block. Oakley has always been a truly dangerous man...the dude should have been a heavy weight champ like Foreman

    I'm sorry. For a few minutes there I thought he was still playing and had decked Barkley. Ahhh the good old days!

    Somebody tell Neil to bail him out and give him a job as a big man coach with the Blazers

    Well then someone would have to bail him out of jail when he starts choking Beibs. You can't coach the uncoachable and Meyers hates contact. We might as well hire a tai chi instructor.

    A Jedi Master would probably be as effective.

    Oakley's been critical of Dolan a lot in the past. Dolan didn't invite him to the 70th anniversary Knicks ceremonies. Oakley was probably pissed about it and being obnoxious at the game. Dolan probably told security to kick him out. He looks like he was pissed when confronted. Phil looks super awkward like he didn't know what to do about it. Oak was one of his players, Dolan is his boss.

    Weird situation.

    Being seen in public. That's what he does.

    He told the dude to stop touching him. I don't blame him. Don't put your fucking hands on me. Point blank.

    Charles Oakley never played for Phil Jackson. He was traded to the Knicks for Bill Cartwright before Phil began coaching the Bulls.

    It's way safer to arrest Meyers.

    If he goes to push you he misses.

    You're right. Jackson probably told them to kick his ass out.
