Tracy McGrady- Pumpkin head, that is what his friends and family call him.

[Nets fan 93]

He really should play IMO. Boone is complete garbage, a slightly quicker version of Jason Collins. But Frank likes to play Collinsesque players, doesn't he?

Boone? he is a nice hustle player who is nothing like Collins... Collins was just a big body to put on players like Shaq, Bosh, Duncan, Yao.... Boone is a player you can bet is running up the court for an open dunk... I like him for all the intangibles he does....What he does for us does not show up on the boxscore

[Jasi]

[Mikaiel]

LeBron : The L-Train. Only Austin Carr uses that nickname but I think it's a really good one. At least it describes his game not like 90% of the other nicknames out there.

Yes, but only one thing: he misses about half those open layups/dunks these days, reminescent of what Collins did when he was a Net.

Exactly, he does the "intangibles," and he is quicker. Exactly as I stated, he is a quicker version of Collins. He can draw a charge here, make a hustle play there. But other than that, he's useless. He can't box out, he can't rebound, he can't shoot free throws, he has butterfingers and constantly loses the ball. The proof is in the pudding. I know that there are certain players who's contributions aren't shown on the boxscore, but it's really a glorified way to say that that player's production is limited.

There is no excuse for you to play 20-25 minutes per night and rack up 0's across the board. There just isn't.

Mike Taylor aka SHACKLES due to the great defense he plays.

Al Thornton is known as JUICE.

Eric Gordon is known as EJ, The Hobbit and Po.

Chris inZane Kaman. Zane is his middle name, so just add the IN part. Kaveman is also popular, as is Chris Kaman your face.

Zach Randolph has ZBo, but ZachAttack and even Morris have been used.

Marcus really has no nickname besides the unoriginal Cambyman.

Baron Davis has Boom, Boom Dizzle, Chuckmeister, BDiddy and whatever else.

Steve Novak is the Silent Killer.

Mardy Collins is known as the QRoss impersonator.

Paul Davis is the Big White.

Thats all really.

He's got a bit of VC look about him especially in the NC jersey

As for Craig Smith, I thought the dude was fat last year until he played the blazers, dude must have been hitting the weights big time.
