Re: The Lesser Known Nicknames of the NBA
Raptors:
Jose Calderon = Numero Ocho or simply Ocho (or with this year's injuries, Numero Oucho)
Chris Bosh and Andrea Bargnani = the Killer Bs
Bargnani = Barney (the Raptors being Barney and Friends) or Il Mago
Kris Humpries = Big Sexy or the Baconator
Roko Ukic = the Pregnant Lady
Pops Mensah-Bonsu just doesn't need a nickname
Anthony Parker = Old Man Parker or Grampa Simpson
Joey Graham = Good Joey (or Bad Joey when he has off nights) or the Hulk
Marcus Banks.... we just don't talk about him much
Shawn Marion = what the hell happened to this guy?
Jake Voskul = Jake the Snake, Vosk or Voskill
...and finally...
Jason Kapono = Cap-killa, Krapono, Marco Pono (as in Marco Polo because he travels a lot), that huge dead anchor around the neck of our franchise... he just generally makes people bitch and cry
Some ex-Raptors:
Vince Carter = Wince
T-Mac = Wince's Cousin
T.J. Ford = Me-J
Antonio Davis = Bricktonio or Stonehandio (in his later days)
Jerome Williams = Junkyard Dog
Damon Stoudamire = Mighty Mouse
Matt Bonner = the Red Rocket
Alvin Williams = Boogie
EDIT: Almost forgot Carlos Delfino, often known as Chuckfino. This lead one poster to famous quote: "Carlos is Spanish for Chuck". LOL
