The Knick Killer: Harvey Araton wrote that basketball star Reggie Miller has "a mouth that can stretch as far as his jump shot range." He might be right. Once, in a game against the New York Knicks, Miller so taunted Knicks guard John Starks that Starks headbutted him. Starks was summarily ejected. That incident took place during Game 3 of the 1993 Eastern Conference Quarterfinals -- a series New York would go on to win in 5 games. Read the rest on MetaFilter.

Watch ESPN's 30 for 30 movie "Reggie Miller vs. the New York Knicks". It explores this incident among others. Very entertaining flick.
