Nickname for Sam Cassell....

Detroit calls Chauncey Billups "Mr. Big Shot", so what about calling Sam Cassell "Mr. Bigger Shot"?

You know that would strike a nerve with Piston fans. :clap:

there have been variations of "big shot" used for sam and robert horry since before chauncey became big time, so i wouldnt give him that exclusivity really

Again with the awful nickname crap. It's incessant with Celtics' fans.

Yes, as in more clutch. It's not that hard to comprehend. :lol:

It's a nickname that would stress Cassell's clutch factor while at the same time taunting your biggest Eastern Conference rival, Detroit. What's not to love about that?

we obviously disagree on how clever it is

ive called him sam i am forever (or bucks days) no need to be a lame homer and make a new nickname just cuz hes on our team now. cant we just appreciate the basketball without making everything gimmicky?

Sam I Am is both unclever and has no real meaning behind it. Just a cheap ripoff of a line from a Dr. Seuss book. *yawn*

It's just a chance to hype up Sam while delivering some subtle trash talk to your rival, I'm not sure why you're taking it so seriously.

Balls of Steel seems like it's made for Sammy.
