    Since he compares to the real Big O so far, why not Lil' O

    Malone was "the Mailman" and it was because "he delivered." Not because Kevin Costner made a crappy movie.

    Ok, so I didn't know that Big O was Oscar Robertson's nickname. My Bad.

    Lil O totally works.

    Did someone already say "the savior"?

    (Green)

    Maybe his nickname should just be his name, because he's good enough he doesn't need one.

    You say "Lil O" and I hear "Lilo". Nicknames based on movies are bad, FAMS!

    I'm not a big nickname fan. But there are a few here that don't bug me.

    Oscar Robertson was my first basketball hero. Lill O is not bad considering the early stat comparison and all the O connections.

    I like The Omen. O Train made me laugh. I like it actually. We already have the L Train. Batum can be The B Train. It's going to take at least that many connections to get us to the finals.

    Interesting that this is a thread about nicknames and we all had to give ourselves an S2 nickname. I say we call him The BGCP..... The Black Guy Causin' Panic!

    The Omen is the best

    Lillard seems to really like the Oakland/Ogden/Oregon thing as that's how he chose 0 as his number, so might as well keep the alliteration up with the Omen
