    i still say "The Dick." It rolls off the tongue nicely and it can work both ways. Rick can be a dick and Rick can dick others by blowing other teams out

    Rick The Dick Adelman

    Folks, whatever nickname you want for him, now is the time to make sure you know how to spell the head coach's real name right. It's "Adelman," not "Adleman."

    He looks a little like both of those guys or a combo.

    I can honestly say no. No. Rick Adelman does NOT remind me of James Caan.

    OK --


    I know it's been put out there as "Rad-Man" but I'm offering up just the "RAd"
    part as in RAD without the "man" attachment.

    I'd like to think of him bringing a "RAD-ical" improvement to our offense and a "Rad-ical" departure from the 3 separate 1st round blow-outs of the JVG era, so give me RAD for Rick Adelman.

    I can live with almost any variation of that theme rather than some of the less civil stuff being thrown out there, although Dooku is hysterically funny!!

    Thanks for playing!!

    As the thread firestarter, I suppose it's up to me to summarize the best choices.

    2) A-Man and His A-Men is hard to beat.
    3) A-Dell-Man is too commercial -- doesn't fit with Toyota Center.

    Now the drum roll for the No. 1. It is:


    Dooku!

    Dooku takes us into the future with a bad-a$$ Jedi who can articulate his points or give his players a jolt. It's not pedestrian in the least. Let's give it up for
    Xenochimera -- the new count of nickname!

    I don't like offensive nicknames, but I couldn't help but think that after a loss, Addlebrained would be useful for the haters. Look it up.
