NBA Planning 'Nickname' Night?

[NovU]

We need nicknames for players like Giannis Atekumpous(?) whom nobody could spell his name right (actually, can't even say it right).

[Andrew]

What's with Cole Train?

It's a pun on "coal train".

[SoF'nAwesome]

This is actually a fun idea. Would be nice to see more of these in the future.

[shadowgrin]

It's stupid but still better than sleeve jerseys.

[Stress Fracture]

Eh, just a regular jersey, only with their nicknames.

[Lean]

Wonder what will they come up with next.

[Andrew]

Nickname Night may have been worth it just to see Jeff Van Gundy and Mike Breen with "Notorious JVG" and "Gray Mamba" jerseys.

[Phil89]

I wonder if Chris Broussard had one with "Sources" on it.

[Stress Fracture]

Wishing Lopez had played, he had Brooklyn on his name, according to this SB Nation post.

[Moz]

It seems there's a lot of bandwagoners in Brooklyn... it's like when you watch a Bulls game when they play at Milwaukee...

He has a nickname. The Greek Freak.

[shadowgrin]

I thought Leftos had that trademarked?

I cant breathe

[Leftos]

I have plenty of nicknames, especially since coming to the US, considering my last name is nearly as fun for anyone non-Greek to pronounce. The Greek Freak, however, is not one of them.

[Patr1ck]

The Heat are still wearing the nicknames on their jerseys. Any other teams?

[Axel The Great]

I would not mind a James Harden jersey with "Fear the Beard" written across the back.
