Demar DeFrozen
Kyle Lousy (pre-championship)
Serge Ibricka (pre-championship)

The funniest and dumbest one was 'Candy Pain' for Reggie Evans. Someone on our board suggested it (see link below), and it was even tweeted to Evans, who said he "didn't like it".

I can't beat some of those, but I remember Šarūnas Jasikevičius' locker room nickname was Jazzy Cabbagehead or something like that.
A lot of people do not remember, but Šarūnas Jasikevičius was on We Believe Warriors team, thats interesting fact.

Dwight Howard arrived in the NBA as a self-proclaimed devout Christian.

Turns out he's fathered many children from many different women.

Years ago I remember "Soft Porn" (I believe it was Steve Blake with the Blazers) because there was never any penetration. Always cracked me up.
