The Dream Stevie Franchise The Wizard The Round Mound Of Rebound - Charles Barkley The Big Ticket Honourable mention: Pig Miller
What the hell is "Aristato?" Is that like "Domo aristato, Mr. Roboto?" In no particular order...the current five best in the NBA are Wink, The Dream, uh, Kmart, er, Reggie Miller? Hell I can't think of any others I really like. I do like yelling at people "He's handing out Shaq Packs" when Shaq just dunks on people's faces. Retired from the NBA, I'll go with His Airness (oh **** hes still in the L), Sir Charles, Magic, and who can forget THE WORM!
WHAT....no Wilt ChamberNezesy (Shaq's new Nickname) or Rip Hamilton (Richard Hamilton's Nickname).....or...... Kerrmet the Frog (Mike Bibby's Nickname). I like all three.
The Sonics have a lot of good nicknames, thanks mostly to Kevin Callabro. Gary "the Glove" Payton Rashard "Sweet Lew" Lewis Desmond "the Cowboy" Mason Brent "Bones" Barry But of course, the best nickname is Hakeem "the Dream" Olajuwon.
Some new nicknames is the shortening of their original name: Cwebb, Tmac, Jdubb.... Where's the fun in that? Clyde 'the glide' Penny Hardaway Jerome 'the junkyard dog' Williams, who probably stole it from Super Mario Elie when he threw it away. Glen 'the junkyard dog' Robinson, who never knew Jerome Williams played in the same league... David 'the Admiral' Robinson, who's getting his discharge papers officially stamped next year
The Nickel Two Sandwiches The Big Aristotle Air Bullard the Kobe Stopper Mad Max baby Jordan The Little Mermaid The Matrix The Answer Starrbury Jackhouse Spree Stevie Franchise the Round Mound of Rebound the Round Mound of Sound the Kandi man the Glyde the Polish rifle the rifleman never was fond of "the Dream" as a nickname. Always was hoping for more than a rhyme for Hakeem. Jeez. this just off the top of my head.
