Yeah, not a fan of either the cocaine or the Curry reference. Cocaine once killed our championship chances and Curry is hated here. Might as well call him Crack Stockton (because he's short, white, and can shoot the rock). I could get behind Sugar Reed (cause his shot is so sweet and, you know, he's a white guy). If we must stay with the soft drink fonts, there's Sprite (cause he's little and white). Or--hear me out--maybe we could just go with Reed and see if a good nickname comes about from teammates or opponents. Just please don't let it be R-Shep.
yeah kind of premature at least wait for him to play in the regular season and see if he deserves whichever nick name and appropriate or not
You don't have to suppose - the NBA has already discouraged the conversation in the immediate aftermath of Reggie Lewis' death.
I love it. Kids know what cocaine is - doesn’t mean they are going to run and get it- they can’t afford a bump anyway. Also - I am in Chicago, so no one will get it up here, which is great because I am thinking I will get one for my nephew - who is Indian and pale, so he can go by “Cocaine Curry”. He saw the shirt looking over my shoulder and said he loves the idea of being called cocaine curry. As for the REAL Cocaine Curry - the name is sick - I hope Dave gets him to wear the shirt off the court… “Powder River! Cocaine Curry for three! How sweet it is!!”…. Now I miss Geno being gone… thanks Deb, now I am down.
Didn’t Reggie Lewis die like 35 years ago? No - I don’t want David Stern to have another brain bleeder in the grave - but they can deal with local fans calling him Cocaine Curry.
