Donatas almost sounds like Donuts. lol Bill: D-Mo with the putback! Clyde: The Donut Man! Hehe.
D-Mo was the nickname used by Rockets staff last year after the draft. That's probably the one that will stick.
Good news... i really hope hes here for summer league... That being said i like both donuts and dmo but i, for some reason, like donuts more...
Treviso? He's played for Prokom for the last year now... Also, Donce (doe-n say) is his real nickname.
So he has to go through them to get the buyout going? That makes sense... And to expound upon that - if he hadn't signed with Prokom, he would have been under Treviso club control for this season anyway? As in he would have had a larger buyout for the 2011-2012 season than he will this year?
Had he not signed with Prokom he indeed would still have been under contract with Treviso, though from what I understand he wanted to play in the Euroleague no matter what and Treviso wasn't going to hinder him. It just so happened that he ultimately signed with Prokom. I don't know anything about the buyout specifics. Buyouts can structured very differently. It may or may not have been higher last year.
He does not deserve a nickname. He does not even deserve a name. His name is Reek, it rhymes with weak.
Ugh, the whole first letter of first name + first syllable of last name nickname thing is so so played out. Just stop it already.
