Real nickname for Garbajosa that's much better than Garbage Man
Quote:
|
Garbajosa, 28, who is 6 foot 9 and can play both forward positions, is in the top 15 in Euroleague scoring (14.9) and rebounding (6.6). Gherardini said he's a "reliable" three-point shooter. Garbajosa is nicknamed the Porn Player because he does everything "obscenely well" with Unica Malaga in Spain. He is expected to sign a three-year deal for about $4-million a season.

Interesting tidbit at the end says his game made way for the CV trade. If he averages CV numbers I'll be pleased.

Re: Real nickname for Garbajosa that's much better than Garbage Man
eerrr.... did the globe report rip this off the rival website? I'm pretty sure the nick name started there. Some guy posted a picture of him in the shower after winning the spanish league and some guy noted a resemblance to the porn producer Seymour Butts.
but you can't really believe anything you read in the rival site =P

Re: Real nickname for Garbajosa that's much better than Garbage Man
Supposedly that's what the Uncaja fans call him. Reason being something along the lines of playing obscenely well? Don't understand it myself, but it's original. Just think about the possibility of this Chuck Swirsky call:
Oh, the porno player delivers a sick, wicked and nasty facial and it's time for meto pull out my salami (and cheese) mama because this game is over.

Re: Real nickname for Garbajosa that's much better than Garbage Man
Yeah, Chuck should stop saying facial.
He used it once when he had Matt Bonner on his radio show talking about card games. Matt plays online cribbage, typically against old women (who else plays cribbage?). Matt said he does a little smack talking when he plays.
Chuck said something along the lines of "so you're online giving grandmothers facials in cribbage?"
