Happy Birthday, Patrick Ewing!

PrintAs is our custom at Third Quarter Collapse, we'd like to extend a happy birthday to Orlando Magic assistant coach Patrick Ewing, who turns 47 today. Patrick has been credited for furthering Dwight Howard's offensive development since his arrival to the coaching staff two years ago. Ewing also made local and national headlines after guaranteeing an Orlando win over Boston in Game 7 of the 2009 Eastern Semifinals - a guarantee which held up, as the Magic defeated the Celtics. There have been rumblings that Patrick would like a shot at a head coaching gig in the Association, but has yet to be given the opportunity (which puzzles the mind of Stan Van Gundy) from a team. Until Ewing gets the chance, he'll be sitting on the sidelines for Orlando.
Oh, and there's still his commercial to marvel at ...
Many happy returns, Patrick.

Wonder how many times that line has been uttered toward Ryan Anderson since he joined the team? lol
Let's observe a moment of silence for CLee, Skip to my Lou, Batman, and The Michael Jordan of Turkey...
Welcome Back Polish Hammer and Welcome Vinsanity, Ryan Anderson, Brandon Bass, and Matt Barnes!!
Haha
One of the reasons I was excited about getting him in the deal. We now have a new catchphrase for him lol.
I have a present for you Mr. Ewing. Happy Birthday!
"Fun fact: Larry Hughes, who couldn’t stay healthy if all his human parts were replaced with bionic implants, is out for the next four weeks with a bruised leg. Do you think that Willis Reed ever reads about all these players missing time with bruises and sprained fingers and throws up in his mouth a little?"
That's not cool
it looks like he’s being blocked
I probably know Judo! How many of you can make the same boast?

He IS being blocked.

Well this did occur before Patrick Ewing became Patrick Chewing
The latter would destroy the Dream
