Metta World Peace thinks the NBA needs more players like Toronto Raptors forward Tyler Hansbrough. 

"He's tough," World Peace said after the New York Knicks' double-overtime loss to the Raptors Monday night, via Al Iannazzone of the Long Island Newsday. "I like him. I like that guy. That's why I miss Matt Harpring when he retired. I have no one to bang with. I have nobody to go bull horn head-to-head. I love it. I miss Matt Harpring. Please come back. Now we got Tyler.

"I love guys like that. I need that physical action. The game has changed so much. Now we got all these Mr. Softees. You know Mr. Softee in New York? A lot of people are made from the ice cream cone. A lot of basketball players are made right from the Mr. Softee ice cream cone truck. I like Mr. Softee. I don’t like to play basketball with Mr. Softee. I just like Mr. Softee after a nice, hot summer day."
