You're right, Stallone is the Italian Stallion.
KG is The Big Ticket, The Cobra doesn't fit him at all.

lol nvm.....Im talking bout this corny stereotypical mid 80s movie he was in called the cobra... it was such a laughably bad "b movie"
And I hate how players just forcibly make nicknames for themselves...just doesn't seem natural to me.

So KG can't win MVP so he tries to pull a Mamba by naming himself Cobra? Uh nice try KG... Stick to playing basketball and leave the nicknaming up to people who know what they're talking about.
Horrible, horrible, nickname... It makes me want to puke...

I loved cobra as a kid. I got your joke the first time. Dont back track on it now!!
Stallone can be the itallian stallion, the cobra, did rambo have a nick name?
I dont like "the cobra" nickname for garnett.
Cobra Commander, Cobra Kai are the best cobra's.

Why change from the Big Ticket? Was one of the best in the league. Not to mention the fact that its original.

Big Ticket is probably the best nick name in the league.
Right up there with Mamba and the Big Fundamental.
