Okay, we need to give this guy a Cool nickname.

I caught Stacy King saying this pretty cool nickname during the game and it really stuck in my head and I personally love it.

"Windy City Assassin"

He grew up here in Windy City, he is playing for the Windy City Chicago Bulls team. So why not???

Do you guys like that name??? If so, let's use that name frequently when we talk about Rose from now on.

Every superstar player has great nickname, it's time Rose got one too.

I thought his nickname was pooh.

The whole Windy City Assassin is totally against Rose's nature.

Rose already has too many nicknames.

Its too long. Plus, any word that associates with killing isn't going to be marketable.

Rose's official nickname is Pooh.

Rose's official RealGM nickname is Unicorn.

No need to change either. Neither will be improved or approved.

I disagree his nickname should only be about killing something like "Kill Kill Murder Die Die"

Sounds too contrived.

I am sure the Mothers of the world would wildly support that. That's something we could all get behind

Derrick Rose doesn't care about nicknames, he just wants to win.

It's catchier than "Cancer, hypertension, firearms"

I feel like that's the name of a punk band I saw at one point in my younger days.

Some people called Eddy Curry "E-City." Might as well call Rose "D-City", cause he's at least a grade better than Eddy Curry.

I'm surprised "Unicorn" hasn't filtered off the board yet. Thought sure Wennington and Swirsky would've picked it up by now.
