What’s My Name?

Eric Gordon needs one.

eric_gordon2After a legendary high school career in Indianapolis, Eric Gordon looked like he was on the fast track to NBA stardom. But his sole season at Indiana turned muddy due to all the drama in IU’s program, and his first two years in the League have been sort of quiet, due largely to the fact that the Clippers are always a mess. This offseason has been a good one for Eric, though: he made Team USA and his sweet stroke is now known internationally. Now he needs a nickname. EG are his initials, and EJ is what friends and fam call him (for Eric Jr), but we can do better than that.

Whoever has the best nickname for Eric will win a dope prize from the SLAM vault and get their name in Trash Talk next month.

    “Sniper”

    he has slid under the radar through college, as well as the nba. He can hit the three pointer with dead accuracy. With these two qualities, “sniper” would be the perfect nickname.

    Eric “J” Gordan…. the way he shoots he should have a “J” in his name

  • Aaron

    “The Example”

    Why?: Another way of writing “for example” is E.G. and those are his initials. He is also the example of someone who is under 6’5″ and never needed to play point guard to excel.

    “Side-Clipp” … >>He’s Baron’s side kick, and often goes under the rader. While the superheroes like Kobe get the attention, the side-kicks like E.G. get little Spotlight.

    “Puffer”
    Same funny face as a Pufferfish, but also as deadly on the court as the Puffer in the sea or on the sushi-chef table.
