Keyonte George Hype & Appreciation Thread

Nickname talk is one of my least favorite things ever. It just has to happen organically or meh. Like you don't get together with your friends to give each other nicknames.
All great nicknames are thought of at some point. That's how things exist, someone thought of it and said it.
 
Talking about nicknames, I still don’t know why “Sizzle” didn’t catch on for Mitchell…

It’s perfect.
How come Hot Rod’s “Slick Willy” never caught on for DWill?

Right but like we didn't call a meeting to give Peter the nickname Stinky Pete... he just happened to let one rip in the back of biology class and his whole life changed. I'm just calling him Key... its short... its what I'd yell at him on a basketball court if I was trying to get his attention. Someone in his life can give him his nickname.
 
One thing with Keyonte George... He's repped by Mike Miller (former heat/grizz player). On the Mistmatch Chris Vernon told a long story about Mike as an agent and some evaluations/calls he's made (like with Jokic) mentioned with Paolo he sent the Magic some of the receipts and declared "I don't miss". Anyway... they used that as like a story of maybe there is more here than we think type of thing... like if Mike is all in with him then he sees something.
Have you just found the identity of @bigmike ?

Man, I really dread having to listen to Holly and Boler come up with forced nicknames for Keyonte and the rest of the new guys. I'm already cringing just thinking about it.
