    One of Dominique Jones and Damian James better be out of the league in 2 years. Otherwise, they will be this decade's version of Jason Richardson and Richard Jefferson and confuse people.

    Worst list ever...

    I think Evan Turner has a great nickname - The Villain.

    And Al-Farouq Aminu means The Chief Has Arrived and this Bill Simmons snippet is awesome:
    I think his name lends itself to a few awesome nicknames

    Well, if Patrick Patterson turns out to be a bust, I'm going to start calling him Pattycake.

    Seriously, it takes all of 10 seconds of listening to Evan Turner speak to know that his nickname is Meatwad.
