    LMA on DP this morning suggested calling Dame and Wes the Rain Brothers, (as opposed to the splash brothers) to which Dan responded with Rainbroz........


    Will it catch on.....?

    LMA shoots from the hip and finally scores with Blazer fans.

    Technically it was Dan Patrick who came up with Rainbroz....... LA and maybe a few of the other Blazers came up with Rain Brothers. DP shortened it to Rainbros, then to .....Rainbroz.

    Good nicknames are not forced. They evolve organically. Case in point.

    Can we amend it to "Reign Bros?"

    Rainbroz is too close to rainbow, which is not very intimidating

    I like Rainbroz. There's Rain. There's Brothers/Bros/Broz. There's Raining Threes and Rainbows from the Arc. It's got it all.

    Except it fits so well:
    • they rain threes
    • it rains a lot in Portland
    • their shot arcs are like rainbows

    Yeah, reign bros is just trying too hard.

    Whatever you say, Sunshine.

    Actually, no thanks. Reign Bros brings back painful memories of The Reign Man. He destroyed us when he was a Sonic and even more so when he was a Blazer.

    Full transcript on ForwardCenter.net.

    “So I heard around my locker room that you have the Splash Brothers so what do you think about Damian and Wes being the Rain Brothers? Live in Portland, it rains. It’s not too hot, but just think about it for me… When you’re making it rain you’re really making the 3. So just think about it. Rain Brothers.”

    I like the "RainBroz" as it is just like a Rainbow in arc and is just as pretty as a rainbow. i like1

    Is it just me or has Lamarcus showed more of his personality since we got Rolo? I don't remember him being as witty as he has been before then.
