    To Roy's credit, some believe Portland is THE playoff sleeper and it's mainly because he's turned into such a killer closer. Stay tuned.

    From the bill simmons article


    "The Closer."

    except it makes me think of that stupid show on TNT that is always promoted to death during the playoffs.

    Ray Allen - Jesus Shuttlesworth (it's a long one)
    Duncan - TD (I had never even heard "the big fundamental"
    McGrady - T-Mac (wasn't he one of the first to do the "t-mac" or c-webb" thing?"
    Parker - ?? (I don't know any for Tony. Eva Longoria's arm candy?"
    Paul - CP3 (I like this one)
    Williams - Deron is Deron (it works on so many levels)
    Nash - ?? (I've just always called him "fugly"

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I thought his nickname was "Worst 2-Time MVP Ever." A bit long, though.

    This thread is both entertaining and futile. Wheels calls him The Natural, and if that doesn't stick, nothing will. (Hmmm... Maybe "Teflon"?)
