Am I the only one that thinks we should retire the timelord nickname? Seems like people want to remind him that he missed one press meeting his rookie year. I don’t need to remind people of their mistakes constantly.

Agreed - I never have used the name - just seems silly to me.

Timelord is a superhero's name.  I don't think many people think of tardiness when they hear it.

It's far too late. Plus, don't get to choose nicknames - they're organic by nature

 It was also In reference to how time stands still when he blocks a shot. He's incredible.  Maybe we should call him Doc Brown  😆

Tardiness, time-standing block-shot machine, superhero...i think it's easier and shorter to call Robert Williams the Third a nickname than to call him Williams III.

Esp when we already have another Williams on the team. Tho I tend to call that one "Batman". "BATMAN FOR 3!!!!"

Batman and Timelord!
