The Rip City Mornings crew has been talking about nicknames for our new guys. Surely there's more creativity here than on their show. Anyone got anything?
Some already have nicknames and Rip City mornings has borrowed from the boards already from the sounds of it.
Plumlee went with Plums during his rookie season. http://www.netsdaily.com/2014/1/10/5295974/nickname-jersey-update-brooklyn-nets-miami-heat
I remember we called Miles Plumlee Plumlajuwon a few years back when he kept killing us. Maybe we can adapt that for his brother.
Apparently Ed Davis went by Big Boss Man during his time with the Grizzlies. http://www.grizzlybearblues.com/2013/6/10/4410916/grading-the-2012-2013-memphis-grizzlies-ed-davis
He was the Boss Man that's for sure. Do you remember when he formed a huge tag team with Akeem as the Twin Towers?
Incredibly, no. I remembered him winning the first Summer Slam, but I had forgotten all about his tag team work until I read his wikipedia page. Memory has been jogged now though.
