Ha, awesome, I played in Perth years ago... they have a good system there. 2 designated basketball speciality schools (I taught at one). He will get his surf on!

We've already got a Triple D: DeMar Darnell Derozan.

Hope he likes it and does well.

Nick name via letters DDan ?

I hope there is good competition there, and Australia seems like a nice place to live for a year or two.

DD 2.0 implies a better version of DD so that's not accurate. However, DD2 is like a movie sequel, and usually they're not as good as the first one. So DD2 works I think.

And if you're going assume DD2 means DeRozan, that's nobodies fault but your own.

Let's hope this DeAndre doesn't end up like Hulett, wherever that dude is. Guy is like Fran Vasquez, I'm coming one day...

Last I checked Hulett was coaching high school ball in Michigan or something.

Maybe just D2 for short hand?

Could take it a step farther and go R2D2 if he turns out to be useful enough to deserve a nickname.

I thought this thread was going to be about DeMar, and I am left disappointed.

DeMar the original DD. Version 1.0. If Daniels eventually ever becomes a part of the squad DD 2.0 ain't bad a nickname similar to how when Allen Iverson and Iguodala used to link up in Philly with the A.I and A.I 2.0 nickname pairing.

What about "DD 2.0.1 release candidate 1"
Changelog:
- Assigned to Perth Wildcats [FEAT#080714]
- Various bugfixs to address compatibility issues in 64-bit mode.

Or something to do with being a beta test... maybe we just call him Beta?

He may not want to come back.....

Left Side Drive · Post #35 » by **Left Side Drive** » Thu Aug 7, 2014 7:01 pm

Imma just call him Dre. Because that is an unique and original nickname not usually used by people named Andre.

If he wanted the money he should have went to China, if he wants the competition he should have went to Europe. Australia is maybe something in between. At least he's playing for the defending champs.

Somebody within the organization wanted a free trip to Australia to "check on his progress".

Or perhaps Masai is using this as a cover in order to scout the next Bruno Caboclo in Australia...the Australian Kevin Durant? Now Masai is hitting up the aboriginal tribes in the outback. Its part of his new initiative: Basketball without Borders, Shoes, Balls, Courts and Baskets. I can't wait to find out who we drafting next year!

Agreed.

Why are people arguing about his nickname? It should definitely just be Double D.
