    My vote is for either “Elie” or “BARKley”

    Brad Miller - I forgot he was ever on Houston? I have completely blocked the post Yao/Mac pre-Harden perpetual 9 seed years from my mind.

    How about just Clutch?

    Barkley would also be a fitting name, but not the ideal Rocket to name your dog after.

    I think it needs to be a name that fits when you're not happy with the dog as well.

    Can you imagine yourself saying "Bad Patrick Beverley"? "You've ruined it, Patrick Beverley." "Stop eating ****, Patrick Beverley."

    Given my observations of Clutchfans opinions, I would suggest "The Lower Bowl."

    If it's a small dog you plan to dress up in ridiculous outfits, then name is obvious, since you can attach a tag that says "Calvin Murphy's wardrobe was provided by ___".

    ---

    I'd say a generally-lovable, but not infallible Rocket is your best choice, so the name always fits the situation.

    Always thought Barkley was a good name for a dog.

    I wouldn't want it's name to be confused with a song from The Smashing Pumpkins' second album, although it is a very good song.
