I got the 9th man first, what the hell is that, basically I am out of the rotation. Couldn't accept the first name so I got "Lake Michigan?" Seriously NBA.com get your act together. These were the following terrible nicknames I got:

Rents due
Peach Cobbler?
Stuff Me (AAHHAHAHAHAHA)
Margarine
The Pancreas
Easily bruised


I think they put a blindfold on and threw darts at the dictionary
Yup

Since NBA.com gave me a recycled name I'm picking my own....


Snaggle Tooth!  The out-of-shape fourth quarter hero who converted one of three free throws to carry the celtics to a win!  WOOOOOO!  WRITE MY LEGEND!

I got a kick out of this site.  Did it a few times to see what popped up, and then tried to decide what kind of player these names could be given to in real life?

The Jeweler - because I make plays that sparkle?
The Mapmaker - because I draw up detailed plays? I do like the nicknames that start with "The" though
The Mechanic - because I fix broken teams? (hope they don't send me to the Knicks),  maybe this name could fit a blue collar guy like Leon Powe
South Dakota - this name could only fit Mike Miller, or maybe Big Country Reeves (not because he's from there, but because he is Big Country).
Barkeep - I'm a crafty veteran point guard, who serves everyone up easy buckets?
Bootslayer - ? sounds kinda cool though
Sore Eyes - I don't even know...
Pistachio - because I'm an nut? Sounds like it could be a racial slur if only I was Italian...
Margarine (i got this twice in a row) - because I'm smooth like butter?

Finally I got "Hundred Dollar Bills" (and I think I'll stick with this one). This one is really appropriate because my first name is Benjamin, it's all about the Benjamins baby!  Or maybe I just need to stick to one of the Wu-Tang name generators that are out there (I'm the Radiophonic Oddity
according to http://test.recordstore.com/wuname/wuname.pl/wuname.pl or I'm the Master Observer according to http://blazonry.com/name_generator/wuname.php)

After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class

Mr. Flush. I actually like it. Although it sounds like it could have more than one meaning.

I got the oft-used "Hundred Dollar Bills." I think I'll stick with what my wife calls me during Celtics games (especially in the playoffs) "Deadbeat Dad."
