Ouch, after reading this thread I suggest that the majority of you pick up an NBA Encyclopedia, because this is an embarrassing eyesore to the site.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting BenWallace3:</div><div class="quote_post">Yep, back in the bad boys days. That reminds me of another Bad Boys, Bill Lambier. "The Lamb".</div> Although he's not as meek as a lamb. hehehe. Bill was also called His Heinous or the prince of darkness.

Dirty and Nasty. What's next? "No Shower" Nelson? hahaha. Also, Kobe is "Lord of The Rings". Hannibal, (The Streetball MC) Gave it to him when Kobe went to Rucker, because Kobe is the only Champ to ever go back to Rucker and play some streetball. He was playing in the rain too! And even though people say Kobe has no street cred, he had a few tricks up his sleeve, he knew how to play streetball pretty good, like all of the "Ballers" were cheering him on, and he didn't do what most other NBA players would do and that is risk their health while playing outside while it was raining. SO yea. Dirty and Nasty hahahaha. Hillarious.

What about John "Hot Rod" Williams and John "Hot Plate" Williams, anyone remember them?
I've always loved Chuck Person's nickname, "the Rifleman." That's an awesome nickname and it describes his game perfectly...
King James - no one lese than LeBron James Dajuan Wagner - Messias Darius Miles - D-Miles Ray Allen - Jesus Paul Pierce - The truth Ben Wallace - The beast
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting notMuchgame:</div><div class="quote_post">I've always loved Chuck Person's nickname, "the Rifleman." That's an awesome nickname and it describes his game perfectly...</div> He got that nickname not only cuz of his game but because of his name as well...Chuck Connors Person...with Chuck Connors bein' TV's Rifleman
Toni Kukoc use to be called the Pink Panther but then is nickname was changed to "the Croation Sensation". And now nobody cares to give Kukoc a nickname.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Big Nasty:</div><div class="quote_post">He got that nickname not only cuz of his game but because of his name as well...Chuck Connors Person...with Chuck Connors bein' TV's Rifleman</div> wow. that's news to me. Never heard of the show though...
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bank Shot:</div><div class="quote_post">Toni Kukoc use to be called the Pink Panther but then is nickname was changed to "the Croation Sensation". And now nobody cares to give Kukoc a nickname.</div> hmmz aint PJ Brown the pink panther?at least thats the lil sound they play everytime he does something in New Orleans hehe
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TMac_OwNz:</div><div class="quote_post">hmmz aint PJ Brown the pink panther?at least thats the lil sound they play everytime he does something in New Orleans hehe</div> I don't know. What I do know is that I use to have a basketball card of Toni Kukoc and it said his nickname was the Pink Panther.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting King James:</div><div class="quote_post"> You will learn about me. </div> uuuuuhhhh.... anyway, more nicknames: tim hardaway: tim bug bryant reeves: big country (isn't his contract still with the grizz?) olowokandi: kandi man damon stoudamire" mighty mouse "wallyworld" szcerbiak "bones" brent barry austin "powers" croshere (before he lost his mojo) "bimbo" coles (maybe because he's so blond and pretty?) dirk "diggler" nowitzki (wonder if he has to live up to his nickname with the ladies)
There aren't any good nicknames now, I only like The Matrix and The Big Sleepy since it fits Tmac perfectly like his eyes are always droopy.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Big Nasty:</div><div class="quote_post">He got that nickname not only cuz of his game but because of his name as well...Chuck Connors Person...with Chuck Connors bein' TV's Rifleman</div> I never knew that either. I knew his name was Chuck Connors Person, but I've never heard of the show Rifleman, nor of the original Chuck Connors.
