Drummond nickname

FWIW, Calhoun calls him "The Natural"

Ive heard that. I trust JC, but Andre doesnt look like a natural. Hes still raw and hasnt even begun to tap his potential. To me, that doesnt indicate a natural. Boatrights handle on the other hand..

 

[HuskyFan32]

Id like to add that while I dont see The Natural, I do think Andre will be the best player in the country by March.

I'm all for bold statements, but that's a bit of a stretch. Your interpretation and my interpretation of the word "best" are clearly different.

The Unnatural? Preternatural? Supernatural?

It was a hyperbole. Most dominating perhaps. My point was that Im not bashing Andre by saying I dont think hes "The Natural". I added that to show that I think hes great.

how bout Dr. Feelgood

Not sure why, but I like this one.

Too creepy after the PSU and SU scandals.

I don't think that we need to get to the PSU scandal to throw out "Dr. Feelgood" given that it's a reference to heroin or a doctor who is happy to over-prescribe opiates. Do you?

I think Joe's "Andre the Giant" sucks.

I like "The Kraken."

And Joe's nick should be Fat Joe

How about Crack?

How about Crack?

That's terrible.

THOR

You liked Thor too! It's short. Most know who Thor is. The way that AD hammers down his dunks just give me that mental image of him wielding that honkin' huge hammer.

Who doesn't like a Joe D call of, "And Thor hammers down another thunderous dunk!"

I think I'm just going to start calling him Thor on this forum. Maybe it will catch on. I like it, and that's all that counts as far as I'm concerned.

The power of the Boneyard can invent a nickname that will stick. If someone comes up with a better one that the masses like, I'm all for jumping on board, but nothing seems to have jumped out yet.

I'm into image and there isn't much physical similarity between AD and Thor. I do like "And Thor hammers down another thunderous dunk!" but that's as far as it goes.

 

[high-post]

Doomsday. It's that thing that killed Superman. Jumps really high, smashes stuff, large, beastly.

So Doom turns into AD DOOM, plus its the UCONN way to be DOOOOOMMEEDD!

For you hip hop heads, if you haven't heard this, you need to play this track by track as soon as yesterday

Okay I'll bite. How does one know what a mythical being actually looks like.

Anyone who has read a comic book knows he had blond hair and blue eyes.

Lets see what the guy who coined the Reach Around Bandit can come up with.

thanks, for the props.

I am working out of town and listening to many games not watching, but so far I am partial to the "predator"

he doesnt have the dreads but...

 

[husky711]

Couldn't bring myself to read past the first page the nickname ideas were so bad lol! The only decent/good one, IMHO, was "The Natural" which someone mentioned he thinks the coaches already coined for him.

 

[rw005]

I present to you...



Apologies for the cussing.

 

[sparky]

How about The Human Eraser.

 

[Rico444]

How about "The Really Good Basketball player?"
