watching the few clips of him from this year's summer league, he's really making an effort to get to the basket and is doing it well.

so if AA stole someone's skittles and snickers bars in the locker room, would he be a snAck attAcker ??

Alexander the Great is a really good nickname.

I haven't seen this guy play for even a minute, so I don't have any clever basketball related nicknames.

Here are a few all purpose, generic nicknames that I like quite a bit:

Fingers
Junior
The President
The Pearl
Sticks

Alexander the Great doesn't exactly roll off the typing fingers.

I like AA - one finger - no waiting.

how bout a squared. it can replace wallace squared.

Nov 13 LW Milan Lucic had an active night. He scored his first goal in eight games since his Oct. 25 hat trick and also pounded Michael Komisarek in a third-period fight. Lucic cut his hand in a fight with Michael Komisarek. "I'll be fine," he said. "(X-rays are) negative, but there's so many broken bones in there from before you can't really tell."

Puzzled?

As long as there's no road trips to Persia, I think Alexander the Great will be just fine.

Alex Acker's nickname = Alex Anonymous

Short form for nickname = Al Anon
