The Mailman is kinda creepy these days given what we know about Karl Malone's sordid (and criminal) personal life

I can offer you 'PayDay' or 'Filthy Pritch'.
‘Son-of-a-Pritch’ or that ‘Filthy Son-of-a-Pritch’

Allen Iversons nickname has always been The Answer. Did you even watch him?
Ironically, AI would have told him that.

Bimbo-Vernell Coles. Always referred to him as Vernell
Boobie-Daniel Gibson. Always referred to him as Daniel
Swaggy P-I'd rather call him nick than replace SW with F.
The 1st 2 nicknames, it reminds me of the time Cedric the Entertainer talked about the incident where a man said his name was Darryl. But he can call him Delicious
Cedric responded, NI&&A I'M A GROWN ASS MAN! I'M NOT GONNA BE CALLING NO MAN DELICIOUS
Blakeshow, even though i'm a monster Blake Griffin fan. I preferred Blake Superion, but blakeshow sounded a bit too much like lakeshow.
Zeke-Isiah Thomas, what kind of nickname is zeke? Nickname for Ezekeil understandable.
Fat-Lafayette Lever. Dude wasn't fat at all, never cared for that nickname. Can't think of any other nicknames out there right now.

I'm actually a big cat guy and don't mind the nickname.
You own lions or tigers?
Spida - what about Mitchell's game is spider-like?
Also gotta love any NBA player named after an invertebrate:
Dennis Rodman - the worm
John Salley - "spider" Salley
Anthony Edwards - ant man
Sidney Moncrief - squid, sid the squid
Fat-Lafayette Lever. Dude wasn't fat at all, never cared for that nickname.
Was called "Fat" because when little that's how his kid brother pronounced his name.
