    It's Splash Gordon. Anyone saying anything else is just jealous that they didn't think of it first.
    While we're on the subject of nicknames...people really need to stop with the whole initials + number and first letter of first name followed by first syllable of last name. Those type of nicknames are completely played out and unoriginal.
    Also, they need to start playing Queen's theme to Flash Gordon whenever Eric Gordon makes a 3pter but change the word "flash" to "splash". Hearing "Splash! A-ahhhhhhh! Savior of the universe!" with that killer bass line that follows would be the best in game audio in the NBA.

    I like Splash Gordon because it just flows. Those not down with it probably not old enough to remember Flash Gordon. Plus he's right up there with Curry with 3PM and already a higher percentage. But let's see if we can come up with anymore

    Tres Equis
    XXX
    The most deadly shooter in the world

    Deadshot - already tons of action pics of Will smith as deadshot that you can photoshop Eric onto his body

    Triple G - 3 point Gangsta!

    Deep Space 10 - play on DS9.

    Just to add. Since Ryan Andersen is right there with Klay as far as 3pm but higher in 3PP, maybe Gordon and Ryan can be The Step Brothers hahaha

    There is only one acceptable nickname for Eric Gordon: The Example.

    "Splash" Brothers came from "Bash" Brothers..... Mark McGuire and Jose Conseco were monster HRs hitters for the OAK Athletics. Both teams are Bay-Area

    "Splash" Gordon comes from "Flash" Gordon.


    I like the names... EGO is also good. Some players have multiple nicknames. Deion Sanders, Jordan, Barkley, etc. Splash and EGO are both good.
