"“The next time you raise a hand to me will be the last time you have hands.”"

– Kristaps Porzingis to the Knicks

We knew there was something about this blond foreigner from the moment they first appeared. Physically unparalleled, they captivated audiences in a way no one else could possibly approach. They were the bright shining star for a downtrodden people in need of – more than anything else – pure, simple, hope.

And then the Knicks started to piss off Kristaps Porzingis, because the Knicks, like Daenerys’ brother, don’t know how to get out of their own way and accept when fate throws you a bone. One skipped exit meeting and one summer in the homeland later, the Knicks know better than to anger the franchise with their usual dicking around.

Point taken. Now all that’s left for the real life embodiment of Drogon to do is reign fire on the league a’la the loot train battle. The Knicks may not have a Dothraki hoard to flank him, but the fire is coming. Soon.
