    Another Brother is a longtime favorite Clutchfans poster and professional comedian.

    I'm sure AB won't mind if I post this, it's not like his identity is a secret anyways.

    As long as u know who the other poster is referring to, as long as there's no confusion, what is the matter?

    who bother what do we use to call aaron brooks, its a nick.
    Kmart anyone?
    Dream?

    its just a nick, as long as majority can understand who is it that it is referring, who cares what you call AB? Call him waterbug if you want, call him jet brooks, call him brooklyn baby, what bout just Aaron, or Brooks, or call him rookie.

    Anyway bout this Another brother, thats his nick name, thats not his real name, use his real name initials.............. BW.

    So tell me again, why should i not use AB to call Aaron brooks?

    While we're at it, why don't you complain about Mike Jamee' initials usage too?

    MJ will be used only in reference to Michael Jackson here in the GARM.

    He's been around way longer than all the other imitator brand MJ's.

    I think if you share the same initials with an actual Rockets player, you're kind of SOL on a Rockets forum. Anyway, most people have the capacity to use context to figure out the difference between "great finish by AB!" and "great post, AB!".

    I would like to offer my congratulations to Aaron Brooks on becoming ClutchFan's most popular AB. It is a great accomplishment which required skill, longevity and determination.

    Throughout the history of this website, 'AB' has held a special place in these forums, as I have been privileged to be referred for the past 6 years. I move over now and offer my best wishes to Aaron Brooks and his family on this historic achievement.

    My hope today, as it was on that September evening in 2001, is that this achievement will inspire others to chase their own dreams.

    Thank you Mr. Gramleone for your continued support.

    - The artist formerly known as AB

    I've been around long enough to know who Another Brother is, but when I see AB I always think Aryan Brotherhood as in the prison gang.

    BTW, MJ in any basketball mag should always reference Michael Jordan only. Last time, I saw a headline on SLAM mag cover, that read "Chat & Answers with MJ" or something to that effect. It had no pictures by the words on the cover, or anything, just those words. Then I opened it up to the article and find a huge pic of Mike James. WTF
