During last night’s Knicks vs. Raptors preseason game, Toronto’s forward Tyler Hansbrough, known as ‘Psycho T’, nearly lived up to his nickname when he turned to confront the person who fouled him, but noticed that is was somebody even crazier than himself.
Once he realized that it was Metta World Peace, Hansbrough’s reaction was priceless. Good thing this incident was captured on video and preserved in history forever.
In the video, it appears Hansbrough quickly tried to squash the beef by saying, “my bad, my bad.”
After the incident and the video going viral, World Peace came to Hansbrough’s defense on Twitter, encouraging him to keep playing ball like a hard-nosed player:
“Tyler Hansbrough, dont listen to these fools. Keep being s hard nose ball player!!!

“I would play on Tyler’s team anyday.. you guys are silly!! Stop adding fire to pre season ball. Fighting doesnt make u tough. win’n does! — Metta World Peace (@MettaWorldPeace) October 22, 2013.
