I’ve never seen someone’s nickname argued about so much as Vujacic’s. At the end of the day, who cares where he got it? This ain’t Rucker Park where bestowing a nickname is a big deal.

while kobe’s numbers are legit, the LO stats are a bit scewed, he got the majority of his points in what turned out to pretty much be garbage time.

spurs are in need of the home cooking. they have been on the road since what sunday? saturday? a rough airplane NO trip lol, pop should have done what he wanted to and sat manu for the game.

on the other hand, the hornets blew them out by an average of about 20 points in NO and yet the spurs won the series, spurs will be fine and i still got the spurs in 6

the article isn’t completely accurate, the nickname was his from his days from slovenia/the Italian league. Sasha simply mentioned that it was his nickname and his teammates gave him a hard time for it, at least until he started hitting some shots.

actually, YOU need to get your facts straight. despite what some papers, tv, and internet sites say, sasha didnt give himself a nickname. neither did the other lakers. joel myers and stu lantz (the lakers tv broadcast crew) did.

A coach with 9 rings and an MVP with 3 rings is battle tested enough.
When the youngins struggle the team is deep enough for someone else to pick up the slack.
Barkley is right when he said this team is even better than the Shaq team in my opinion.
Cue the Lakers dynasty

@oscarisalakersfan man get ur facts straight… sasha made up that nickname in the lakers practice and they all made fun of him because he made up his nickname practicing and at the beginning the commentators made fun of him and his name.
