  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
Weird interview.
Seems like he's trying a bit too hard. Dunno about this swag stuff yet.
KG is the one who'll decide who got swag.
Darn rookies.
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.

Haha, you should follow him on Twitter, he tweets quite a beat for an athlete! He seems nice but the way he likes the limelight makes me wonder if he is going to have relations with 2000 women in the future lol... it's just something off about him to me...

I don't know what a Smokey The Swag Bear could be lol... Brakins was high that day...
It takes me 3hrs to get to Miami and 1hr to get to Orlando... but I *SPIT* on their NBA teams! "Bless God and bless the (Celts)"-Lady GaGa (she said gays but she really meant Celts)

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
Just 'Smokey' is good. That could definitely stick.

'Sully' is okay, but has there ever been anybody who has had the last name Sullinger and not been nicknamed 'Sully'? It's like calling people 'Smitty' who have the last name, Smith. I like a little more thought put forth in nicknames.

A good nickname has to be earned, and is usually self-evident, self-fulfilling.
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
Today is a gift...
   That is why it is called the present.

Which is why I thought that Quisy had the trademark on "smokey"

So are you saying it's alright for guys named "Sully" to smoke seedy ditchweed?  Or are you just saying it's expected?

I'm picturing some dude down on the docks in Southie burning some downtown brown.

Still love the nickname for him, but like TB and Redz said - time to start earning it, young man.

We need Rick Mahorn 2.0, Smokey!



Get in that paint a bit and throw that size around.

What should Jared Sullinger's Nickname be?

He doesn't get a nickname until be does something to deserve one.
