    Before the league realizes what a gem we have in Eddie Griffin I think we should give him a nickname before Kenny "The Jet" Smith jumps on the bandwagon and gives him a stupid one like he did with Tracy "T-Peso" McGrady and last night with "The Foriegn Legion" I dont know if Griffin already has a nick because if he does I havent heard it yet. So any ideas for this shot blocking monster?

    I call him....EGGIE!!!

    some around here call him.."The Silent Assassin"

    really...what does it matter? Whatever we come up with, will have no effect on what them knobs on TnT or ESPN call him anyway...

    Kenny should be banned from assigning nicknames.

    Why not just steal the name of the movie of the acting star he shares the exact same name with, Eddie Griffin of "Undercover Brother".

    All last year, Time Worrell was calling him "Fast" Eddie. I think that was Paul Newman't character in "The Hustler" where he was a pool shark.
