Rice. Cause he's on ya. Like white on rice. And he's white.

Oh come on, Hornet was already taken. I had to reach.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

"He's got 3 on ya"

At least it'd be catchy.

Yea that nickname isn't changing for him. It's too easy and extremely marketable. Especially now more then ever that Universal will now be including Nintendo into their theme parks. Super Mario couldn't have come at a better time. From Superman to Super Mario

I like just Zone...

Super Mario, Hezzy, Flyzonja, etc. They all feel like it's being forced. I do enjoy the nicknames that are given or those metaphoric nicknames like The Truth, The Answer, Black Mamba. But that's just me

I do call him "Crobe" (Croatian Kobe) to my girlfriend when he makes a good play.

And if it's Super Mario, so be it. As a Jaguars fan, I've heard Texans fans call Mario Williams that, and now some Titans fans have adopted it for Marcus Mariota. The was an F1 driver with that nickname, too. If it can be avoided once it's a new name is given, avoid it. But if it sticks, I don't care lol

Magic Mario.

It's alliterative, which makes it pleasant to say and hear.

It's not a name that every guy named Mario gets.

Magic and super convey excellence.

It labels him as ours.

It's more than a nickname with Mario...it's a way of life. It amplifies an action.

-zonja ('s on ya)

He's dropping bombzonja.
You thought you had the lane? Nope, Hezonja.
I asked your wife what her favorite part of Mario's game was. She said, "as soon as I drop the soap, Hezonja."

the problem with that ^ nickname thing is that his surname is pronounced nothing like 'he's-on-ya'. so it feels kinda dumb to me to make that a thing

Exactly, With ESPN running this Super Mario themed video on their website they pretty much just solidified it.
