I love Magic, The Glove, Durantula, and Rainman the most. Now all the nicknames are like D-Wade, D-Rose, CP3, D-Will. No creativity at all

zeke33, i agree with your other ones, but i have to disagree with glenn "big dog" robinson. Everyone knew when he came into the league that Anotine Carr was the true Big Dog. That would be like John wall calling himself dr j and people jocking it.

thanks for that, but i think you misunderstood what i was saying about Glenn Robinson. What i meant was that he was a BIG DOG as in Lazy. I know the nick name bigdog was suppose to mean that he was the Bigdog in the draft but i see it more as a reversal as being a BIG"lazy"DOG. Idk if you would agree with that but thats what i meant to say. but im glad u agree on the others

One my favorites that still makes me chuckle is Pervis Ellison. He was nicknamed "never nervous pervis" coming out of college becasue he was cool and calm. But then he ahd a greg oden type rash of injuries and was then "out of service pervis" for the rest of his career.
