So my friend follows Turiaf on twitter and saw he was in the area, near DC Comics in Time Square. He tweets at him that he should come over - and Ronny says "tell me the address and i'm there!"
They just called me at the end of his tour. I told Ronny "good luck with the season" and "great game last night" but I was kind of too nervous to say anything meaningful. He's a really friendly and awesome dude though. He complimented one of my other friends at DC about his beard. Crazy stuff. (I took out my friends twitter address for his privacy, etc)

that's awesome. Ronny is my favorite Knick. I know there are others more important to the statistical success of the team, but whatever. I've been to a bunch of games this season and he was the one interacting with the crowd and pumping everyone up. Frequently. All the stuff he does during TV timeout is huge and I'm a big fan of his charisma and pleasant demeanor

lol, ive got Ronny on my twitter feed and saw this happen. Very cool that you met him. Seems like a real good guy, replies to tweets every single night.
Some men see things as they are and ask why. I dream things that never were and ask why not?

I know that some around here may feel differently, but I'd like to see him stick around here next year (he has the option), not only because of this kind of thing (which helps the franchise within the community), but because he is a decent player and an even better teammate.

i agree. and his blocked shots are absolutely a thing of beauty.
