Can we please stop calling him Reke?

[rainmaker]

Well he does have the potential, and I see him fulfiling it, to be one of the guys who go by one name. Lebron, Kobe, Wade, Dirk, Nash. At some point, Reke, or Tyreke, whichever he is most often referred to as, will be a household name and kids all over america will have his poster on their bedroom walls.

 

[kingsnation]

...or reeks.

...or Rekes.

 

[Webber#4]

I know it's only for this year, but when he wins Rookie of the Year i kinda like the name REKEROY to be his nickname, rolls off the tongue.

 

[Prince_XY]

This dude is always whining

You almost made me fall from my chair.

 

[Aenadin]

Can't stop, won't stop.

Reke

rookie year: Can't be stopped (you can try )

The future

Won't be stopped (once he learns that jumper why even bother..... just lay on the ground that way you wont get hurt trying to guard him as he goes for his power drive.

Yeah I'm not a fan for all the lame nicknames either. It's one thing to nickname a player over time, but it's almost like people think they need to find nick names for players that aren't even good. John Brockman doesn't deserve a nickname for example. C'mon the Brockness Monster.... really? REALLY? The guys a SCRUB... How about John the Toilet Bowl Cleaner. Monster should only be referred to a player who averages 10+ rebounds 2-3+ blocks, and is known for throwing elbows to keep the lane clear from defenders... Charles Barkley could be called a Monster, or Patrick Ewing, or Hakeem, David Robertson, etc.... NOT JOHN lol

How can you be against the brockness monster? Given the minutes every game he would probably put up 10 rpg easy... You may think he is a scrub but i've witnessed him single handedly turn the momentum of some of our games this year resulting in wins. He may not win the game for you but players like Brockman help you have a chance. Plus, what better word to describe him than MONSTER when he's pulling down rebounds over 6-11+ guys... its pretty remarkable.

Don't like the nickname is one thing but seriously
wow people actually have to be qualified to have a nickname now?

 

[mcsluggo]

Per article 478-9 of the American Preeminence Act of 1978, members of this establishment are instructed to cease and desist on all above nickname usage, until the appropriate forms 14792B, 14792d and 11487a through f are submitted in triplicate. Please don't force us to call inthe hammer.

To me, all alliteration aside (tee hee hee), rekeroy is horrible to inunciate and RekeRoy night was a horrible broadcast just to hear Napear keep saying rekeroy, rekeroy...

It most certainly does not roll off the tongue.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Wait... don't we want to call in the Hammer?

 

[LPKingsFan]

Well, there's always Hugo.

Yeah, but that makes me think of

 

[kupman]

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know what people in his personal life (long-time friends, family etc) call him? Reke?, T, Ty,Tereke, Oh Great One?

 

[Aenadin]

How about

Evans Almighty?

 

[mac]

Or. Evans turner.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

In the chat room, we have taken to referring to him as THE Tyreke Evans (e.g., THE Ohio State University), or TTE for short.

 

[FakeInjury]

Reke is the local name, but i agree that he may need a nickname for the national stage. Lebron's was King James, and Wade is D-wade. Tyreke shouldn't just be Reke, it isn't original. "the main event" , "if it aint broke, don't fix it", "Bob barker"(COME ON DOWN....the lane)", "Reke (the little *****) Scolari", "Damage", "Thuggish Ruggish" Tyreke Evans.

Do we get to burn couches if he doesn't win ROY? I mean, that's what they'd do in Columbus...

Too Easy.

I believe that it would be our God given right!
