OT: Morris Almond's Nickname... 

Post#1 » by DubaLakers » Thu Mar 12, 2009 9:19 pm

Morris Almond - "Mobe"
"name given to him by younger team mates (Paul Millsap, Ronnie Brewer, C.J. Miles) after his two 50 point games in the NBA d-league, and lack of career assists. it's a play on the name "Kobe", who in the middle of his career took too many shots and did not pass that much."

That was a good laugh for me this morning.

I wasn't laughing at the comparison, or why the reasoning, more the name, just made me laugh.
