Lebron's should be
"Biggest, strangest roid head anyone has ever seen"

Serioulsy the guys head shows clear signs of ped"s, no wonder he wears that huge head band...

+1.......LeBroid makes too much money for everyone for anyone to do or say anything substantive about it. Why do you think the player's union has fought so hard against testing and has not met with much resistance by the league (the owners)? The bigger and stronger their athletes are, the better the product, and the more $$$ they make.

There are many arguments against the proposition that LeBroid may be using PEDs. One I've heard numerous times is that he was already huge and dominant in high school, I guess implying that if he was that big then, then where he is now is just a natural progression and he is some Ubermancht.

PED use in high schools is rampant. I guess there's no way that He (and I use uppercase because of his deification by so many, even on this board)could have been HGH'ing his way through high school, because there really is no financial incentive to do that, right?


The other argument often used against the people who suggest the possibility that He could be PED'd up is that we're just "jealous" of him and his accomplishments and we're haters.

Another sentiment, voiced by some on this board is that "everyone's" using PEDs, so if it provides for better entertainment, that's great.

Amazing how few injuries he has and how quickly he heals from them, huh? The guy must be the next step in human evolution, I guess.

How is first name initial + punctuation + last name = nickname?

And is there any special reason why Williams gets a hyphen but Wade's is a period? Wade should have gone as either "Flash" or, his newer one, "3".

Greg

Wade couldn't use Flash because of copyright--and AK-47 was probably 86'd by the league...

Joe Johnson should've gone with KG's nickname for him, though:

At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

That makes sense then. And yeah, KG's nickname for Joe is much better.  :)

The official Big Ticket and Truth jerseys would have sold in the hundreds of thousands if they came out in Celtics versions a year ago...

Also, I hope there's an epic story behind Chalmers's nickname.

Or it's because his first name is Mario.

Unacceptable.

I will settle for the idea that he's a massive Duran Duran fan, though.



Eric Reid, Heat's play by play announcer, has been calling him that since his rookie season. And yes, it's because of the name Ma-rio.
