Blake Griffin Nickname Thread
I haven't really heard any nicknames associated with him. Am I missing something?
I heard someone refer to him as "Robo-Cop" today because he's coming to Detroit with past injuries and is going to be rebuilt. I found this hilarious.
Does he have a known nickname or do we roll with robocop?

Lol... that's quite the list.
Add Quake Griffin to the options as I saw that over on the Clippers board.

I've also heard Blake Superior in the past. Which is more fitting now that he's in the great lakes state.

"Blake Griffin of the World Champion Detroit Pistons" -- that's the nickname I want for him.

Truth is Blake Griffin has a better chance at winning the championship on the Pistons than he ever did on the Clippers

Re: Blake Griffin Nickname Thread
Of these I think I like Blakeshow. The ones that play on his being biracial are probably a little too uncomfortable for the mainstream to pick up.
Basketball Reference doesn't mention any, fwiw.
