    What a horrible nickname.

    A bankrupt company that used to compete against Wal-Mart and Target.

    Sounds awfully fierce to me :eek:

    Dont mess with K-mart..... He is one cheap dude.

    Kenyon Martin, K-Mart
    Tracy McGrady T-Mac
    David Robinson, D-Rob
    Jeff Van Gundy, J-Van :D j/k

    I dont know, I dont think of the store K-Mart when I hear his nickname. I dont think many people say, K-Mart went bankrupt, what a dumb nickname, when they hear it.
    Maybe that just me.

    They could at least call him Super K-Mart. At least they sell food and stuff.

    Back in the day, they used to have real nicknames. Iceman,Dr.J,Dream,the glyde,air, Chief, and so on, but now its like abbreviations like T-Mack. The creative nicknames have seem to left us.

    I can't wait 'til a guy named Wally Martin enters the league.

    He'd be all, taking over small towns, putting mom and pop stores out of business.

    Wal-Mart would be badass.

    Actually David Robinson is probably known more by the nickname "The Admiral". He also the best nickname for a homecourt when the old Spurs stadium and the paint was called "Mr. Robinson's neighborhood". There's still some good names around, the Franchise, The Cat, the Glove. Shaq is known by a bunch of nicknames: Shaq Daddy, the Daddy, The Diesel, Shaq-Fu. I love those names! lol. Air Canada. "The Big Dog" Glen Robinson. And isn't Shawn Bradley called the Preying Mantis? "The Answer" Allen Iverson, and I think Paul Pierce is called something like "The Question". Starbury. "The Matrix" Shawn Marion. There are a few out there.
