OT - Happy Halloween! Tim H Jr isn't quite sure ghosts aren't real...
Tim Hardaway Jr shares a creepy story of his trip to the Skirvin Hotel in OKC with some teammates on the Knicks at the time. Pretty fitting for Halloween.

So he is not sure, or is he not not sure???
October 31st, 2019 at 1:41 PM ^
He's not 100% sure that ghost's aren't real. Then he goes on to say that items got moved in his hotel room (can you imagine?) & he heard footsteps in the hallway (wtf?). He also heard voices (clincher). I mean, how can this be explained?
October 31st, 2019 at 2:57 PM ^
Don't question his methods.
October 31st, 2019 at 1:40 PM ^
A helpful guide...
Ghosts = real
Aliens = not real
Ghouls = real
Loch Ness = not real
Banshees = real
Rosie O'Donnell = not real
October 31st, 2019 at 1:47 PM ^
Banshees = real
Yep, I married one.
October 31st, 2019 at 1:49 PM ^
HA! Got her!
October 31st, 2019 at 1:51 PM ^
What about Sasquatches?
October 31st, 2019 at 1:54 PM ^
Yes, but they only visit earth when the hitch a ride with the Greys.
October 31st, 2019 at 1:54 PM ^
Oh, the Bigfoots are absolutely real. They also go by the name, Yeti, Skunk Ape, Yowie, Wood Booger, Jamele Hill, etc...
October 31st, 2019 at 1:54 PM ^
I think they could be real, but I'm not as convinced as I am with ghouls
October 31st, 2019 at 2:02 PM ^
He already said Rosie's not real.
October 31st, 2019 at 2:14 PM ^
The actual legend is that whenever Randy Quaid grows out his beard, that this is him merely wandering aimlessly through the woods looking for character work.

I think Big Foot is blurry, that's the problem. There is a large out-of-focus animal roaming the countryside.

Pretty sure Loch Ness itself is real.
October 31st, 2019 at 1:55 PM ^
I think the jury is still out
October 31st, 2019 at 1:56 PM ^
It's real & it's 755' deep.
October 31st, 2019 at 2:25 PM ^
False! The correct list is as follows:
Ghosts = not real
Aliens = real, in fact I'd be surprised if they weren't real, but they have never been to earth
Ghouls = not real
Loch Ness = real
Loch Ness Monster = not real
Sasquatch = not real
Chupacabra = real
Banshees = real
Rosie O'Donnell = likely real, but I choose to not believe in it
October 31st, 2019 at 2:48 PM ^
Other way around.
Loch Ness = not real
Loch Ness Monster = real
October 31st, 2019 at 3:06 PM ^
What about zombies, vampires and werewolves? I’m thinking fake, real, and fake. Except for Teen Wolf, who was obviously real.
October 31st, 2019 at 3:12 PM ^
Agreed. Fake, real, fake.

Sam Darnold believes in ghosts.

YES! I love it. This is a super famous hotel and TONS of NBA players have stories about it and some of them hate staying there. https://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/20/sports/basketball/hotel-leaves-oklahoma-city-thunder-opponents-telling-ghost-stories.html
Happy Halloween everybody!
Also - I like Tim's writing style. Very informal but funny and clear and informative.

Hi, we're the New York Knicks and we didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
October 31st, 2019 at 2:36 PM ^
Absolutely agree:
"When I got to my room, I turned my TV on immediately and left it on. My theory was that if the room was haunted, the TV would be turned off at some point during the night. (I don’t know what was behind my logic. It’s just what I decided to do. Don’t question my methods.)"

IIRC, these articles are in fact interviews with a, ahem, ghost writer.
October 31st, 2019 at 6:16 PM ^
Straight down Michigan Avenue to ELOISE....(google)
October 31st, 2019 at 2:01 PM ^
I ain't afraid of no ghost.
October 31st, 2019 at 2:12 PM ^
Peter Venkman agrees with Tim!
October 31st, 2019 at 2:12 PM ^
So why do teams continue to book the Skirvin if it's this creepy?
Has anyone here stayed there?
October 31st, 2019 at 2:14 PM ^
I mean it's an entertaining story and all, but aren't ghosts supposed to haunt you?
Would have been more haunting if the screams actually said, "Tiiiiiiimmmmm, we know that you smoked pot with Mitch McGarrrrryyyyyyyyy at that block party on Linden Streeeeeet your junior yeeeeeeeaaaaaarrrrrrr."
October 31st, 2019 at 3:04 PM ^
Stayed there a couple times. They have a couple floors that you can't access on the elevators if I remember correctly. What is exactly on those floors? Don't know!
October 31st, 2019 at 3:16 PM ^
I've had a few experiences which, when typed out seem boring & stupid.
But like Ernie Hudson said, "I seen shit that will turn you white!"

How many double negatives can you fit into one post?
