Happy 52nd, Nique.

When the Hawks visited Newark to play the Nets the other night, ‘Nique had this hilarious story how when Mike Fratello (now a broadcaster for the YES Network) was the Hawks coach, they would put Spud Webb’s clothes in coach’s locker and vice versa. God bless the Human Highlight Reel. I was too young to remember the Wilkens-Bird and Wilkens-Jordan battles, but there hasn’t been anything close to those type of match-ups since then.
