Grand Theft Alvarado is one of the hardest nicknames i have ever heard. It perfectly sums up what the Jose is good at when he is on the court.

This was so good! Definitely needs a part 2 though! Chef Curry, The Greek Freak, The Joker, Spicy P, Spider Mitchell, Hookah Doncic, Air Canada, Muggsy, so many good nicknames. Also need to do a whole video on all of the insane nicknames Serge Ibaka gave to himself 😂

Slim Reaper was a such a cool nickname. Such a good name for his alternate shoe line as well, instead of the KD Treys.

No one's calling kd easy money sniper lol You left out one of the most iconic nicknames of all time. Clyde the glide. It's almost impossible to forget that one. Along with logo lillard.
