    Remember when you were a kid and you just got a new pair of shoes? Remember that first time you wore them to recess? You would run as fast as you could and stop on a dime and spin and twist and turn and do everything you could to test them out? Well, I think Ryan Bowen's nickname should be "NEW SHOES" because that's how he plays--like he just got a new pair. HE GOES FULL SPEED ALL THE TIME. i CAN SEE WHY DENVER FANS LOVED HIM!!!

    He absolutely gives his all. He will absolutely have to get a shot to earn a shot at some decent court time (even 'just' knokcing down uncontested j's).

    Knickname? Wasp. Because he stings (on D) and because be's a white anglo-saxon pest (on said same D).

    Spaz. Bowen runs with his arms and legs flailign everywhere. Kinda like a kid I once knew that loved sports but was pretty bad at everything. He just ran around as fast as he could, and we all hoped that he wouldn't injure anyone.

    Somebody come up with a nickname for an uncoordinated, goofy looking guy that looks like an idiot when he runs and does everything with his mouth open.

    Can't quite piece together a word to describe all that....

    I'll go with that one. The way he runs around on the court is just like Napolean. :D

    Napolean Dynamite is awesome - I think we have a winner.

    I think "Floorburn" Bowen describes the way he plays.

    Ryan Bowen doesn't need a nickname. The guy needs a consistent outside shot. He's a solid 15ft jumper away from being the perfect backup SF for this team.

    Yeah, I can just see Ryan Bowen turning away from the ref after being called for a foul: "God! Freakin' id-iot!"
