Rodneyx2 just seems to cruel. Stuckey Buns is too girls.
Sticky Rod may be too phallic for the NBA.


For AA, what about Alfalfa?

RamRod?
Rockin' Rodney?
Stucknut?
This isn't easy.

I'm calling him Stuckeybuns.

Although Stuckey Rod may work....

Rodney "It's me" Stuckey
BabyWade

Arron "out of the league after my rookie contract" Afflalo

I know we're trying to think of cool/funny nicknames, but just "Stuckey" is pretty damn unique.

Rodney "It's me" Stuckey
BabyWade

Arron "out of the league after my rookie contract" Afflalo

LMAO

Mejia could have some fun ones, but there's not much use in making them up since we all know he's not making the team.

The Dumars Twins. Or "Oops Joe did it again"

Affalo's nickname should be "Redundant"

Stuckey's nickname should be "Hot Wheel", in college it was "Hod Rod" but he did play at Eastern Washington. Or "Stuckey on the Bench", because we can't develop young guys picked before 23, plus Flip is still the coach.

I just hope that we don't end up removing the "t" from Stuckey's last name.

Since Afflalo loves shooting the three, how about "Trey A"

Any chance Blaha simply coins him as Hot Rod?

Mr. Little Shot?
Perhaps Ed? (The guy who was a lawyer and bought the bowling alley, Stuckey Bowl in the town of Stuckeyville on the TV show from a few years back)

From the Berman department, Aaron Afflalo you wherever you go

Mejia, I just met a girl named Mejia, and suddenly that name will never be the same to me......(cue West Side Story music)
Carlos Santana Mejia, Mejia, you remind me of the West Side Story
Perhaps he's the Spanish Harlem Globetrotter

Or, I played for the school that somehow got Dar Tucker Mejia?

As for other guys that could possibly get a look if the sky falls, I liek Samb I amb

Afflalo should just be A2 until further notice.

As for Stuckey, I think the fact his facial expression never ever changes, even in pressure situations when he's slashing between two and three defenders, should be a factor.

I was thinking, "Eye of the storm," "Icy hot," or something along those lines.

we'll save that name for the title of his post-NBA biography....i can't imagine Stuckey scoring a big time basket and yelling "THERE YOU GO, EYE OF THE STORM!!"

:)

Larry Bird was "the Hick from French Lick."

Sometimes you go with what you have...

John Amaechi is out of the league...

I'm telling you, Blaha will find a way to make sure it's Hot Rod

that would be terrible. hot rod is one of the most overused nicknames in sports.

How many times are we going to hear him exclaim "And Stuckey StUUck it!" and variations of the above? (Actually, hopefully lots....)

Not sure if this is already well known, but it seems that Hot Rod is Stuckey's nickname:


Personal: Majored in interdisciplinary studies/criminal justice. Nickname is “Hot Rod”. Favorite athlete is Dwyane Wade.

i'm still determined to find something better. who's willing to bet that Sheed already has a nickname for him?

I'm telling you, Blaha will find a way to make sure it's Hot Rod

This information is true.

Announcers just called Stuck, 'Hot Rod'

How about "Flip"? (for Stuckey)

LOL I'd still rather have Stuckey gunning for the highlight reel than Flip Murray.

I have my own personal nicknames for the new players. Right now Stuckey is "Fiddy", and Jarvis Hayes is "Domewax". Brezec is "Big Dracula" and Herrmann is "Hanson." I don't have anything for Afflalo yet.

Allaffo.

Brezec should be nicknamed "Johnny Hustle"

Aaron "The Iceman" Afflalo - He shows very little emotion and looks very calm and cool on the court, especially for a rookie.

"Lightning" Rod Stuckey - He's past his defender in a flash.

"The Hermannator" - It just fits him so well.

The Hermannator...I LIKE IT!

Isn't "new rookie" kind of redundant?

Unless it is the nicknames that are new, I suppose.

That's the way I always took it. New nicknames for the rookies.

Brezec should be nicknamed "Johnny Hustle"
I like it. He can be Johnny Hustle and Big Drac all at the same time. If Shaq can have as many nicknames as he wants, I think Primoz can take a few.


Aaron "The Iceman" Afflalo - He shows very little emotion and looks very calm and cool on the court, especially for a rookie.
Fine, good, as long as I don't ever have to say "Afflalo" ever again. That shit makes me feel like my tongue just got off a Stairmaster.


"Lightning" Rod Stuckey - He's past his defender in a flash.
See, now you're making me think of Dwyane Wade. That's not good. We need lots of things about Stuckey to distract us from his similarities to Dwyane Wade.


"The Hermannator" - It just fits him so well.
The Herrmannator it is.

Sheed will come up with something. That is what part of his pay is for.

I have no nicknames, just a story

I was watching the Celtics game with my parents, and Max made a big play, so I yelled out babypocalypse.

Which drew the ire of pa. He asked what the hell that meant, so I told him that Max was powered by the sweet blood of newborn sacrifices , and that dunk took billions.
To which he retorted, what the fuck?
Naturally, I said exactly.

We're so concerned about things that his name remind us of. Or how he plays basketball. I think we need to take our focus elsewhere. We're missing the most obvious thing: his terrifying "high fade" haircut. Focus all our efforts on that, and we'll have a winner.

Domewax had a great game tonight.

According to Sheed, Stuckey is Stuck and Brezec is Gangsta.

The Herrmannator.

I love it.

Arron "out of the league after my rookie contract" Afflalo

Afflalo owns Glenn

HAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Stuckey - El Gato

I've been calling Afflalo: A-Ron or Afflaffle (rhymes with waffle)

Stuckey: Stuckeybuns

And since we're doing Brezec and Herrmann too, I sort of like Herrmanator and for Primoz... I don't have a clue.

Rodney "It's me" Stuckey
BabyWade


BabyCourage [smilie=heatsmiley2:

BabyCourage reminds me of a granny-shot style free throw.

I like "The Unknown Soulja"


"I'm like the unknown in this draft," Stuckey said the day before his life would change. "That's what everyone's been saying throughout this process. But I love it. Just let me be the unknown, you know? No one really knowing who I am, I'm gonna surprise a lot of people once everything starts happening."
