Aw come on, you left out his actual nickname:

Mase-ON

And my suggestion Mr. Basketball

(It's long for a nickname but so is The Big Fundamental)

[timvp]

Regarding Roger Mason, Jr., that "Jr." part means a lot to him. His dad, who was a doctor, died when he was a kid. I know he always introduces himself as Roger Mason, Jr. and takes pride in his name.

It's not quite to the level of the "Elliot" pet peeve of mine but I think it's right to give him that respect.

/soapbox

[MoSpur]

Jr. Whopper. J/K

Mase Jr

[BlackSwordsMan]

Call him the black manu

[gingerwave]

Instead of money, I say Big Cheeze.

[xtremesteven33]

Ocho sounds original and catchy. Something you could yell out in a spurs game. also very marketable in San Antonio

[Dex]

Ok, Ok.

Roger "Money" Mason, Jr.

It won't be easy to fit on a koozie, but I like it.

[I. Hustle]

Yeah but you can put 8 balls on everything

[hater]

hahahaha awesome. I gave him that one.

Roger Money Mason it is!!!

now we need to get Sean Elliott to use it :hat

[nkdlunch]

variations:

Roger Show me the Money! Mason

Roger Mo Money Mason

[I. Hustle]

Damn I let the money train roll out too far before I brought out The Ocho.

[nkdlunch]

Roger Mo Money no Problems Mason

[xtremesteven33]

Damn I let the money train roll out too far before I brought out The Ocho.



we cant give up! Ocho makes too much sense to be given to someone else.

[I. Hustle]

we cant give up! Ocho makes too much sense to be given to someone else.

I know! It's the most badassest nick name for him

[PM5K]

That's why I call him RMJR

[xtremesteven33]

I have an inside source who can get Sean to say "Money Mason". So listen out for it.

Didn't know that. Can I change it?

Never heard of Chad Johnson?

[Manufan909]

That would be shittastic. Hurry though, cuz I'm coming in tomo, so I'll be able to see the My35 broadcast. I miss Sean's homerism.

[I. Hustle]

Never heard of Chad Johnson?

To me that's what makes it funny. He calls HIMSELF Ocho Cinco though.

Get him to call him the Ocho or Ocho and we win.

[xtremesteven33]

Get him to call him the Ocho or Ocho and we win.



Im trying to convince him right now as i type. "Money" has a better chance than 'Ocho" right now.

[hater]

oh shit that would be tight

[I. Hustle]

Well Hater, you beat me to the punch.

[hater]

Well Hater you beat me to the punch.

:king

let's just hope Roger lives up to his nickname whatever it is the whole season

[I. Hustle]

no joke

[Drachen]

I like the idea that person has in his sig. "BlackBarry"

Remember, dude can shoot, handle the ball well, play a little point and score in bunches. Like someone else we recently had on our team. Also, dont forget Barry (at Mason Jr's age) was scoring 20+ a game average for the Sonics. All Roger needs to do is to win a dunk comp in SA and it would seal it.

[hater]

Mason is an upgrade over Barry.

Mason = Black Manu

[tmtcsc]

Mason is an upgrade over Barry.

Mason = Black Manu

Easy now hater..Manu has 3 Rings and an Olympic gold and Bronze medals..breathes fire, etc.

I like me some Mason and I think he will become a huge part of our success this year. He has a sweet, smooth shot and makes things look so easy on the court.

You know your a badass when your REAL name becomes part of someone else's nickname.

He is scoring at a lower clip than Barry was at his age. I think the Barry comparison works well

Calling him "money" sets him up for failure and mockery. Stupid nickname :td

[fotan2]

his nickname is Roger Mason , isn't it

[hater]

well if we use your logic then he is better than Manu because he is scoring higher than Manu at his age.

Let's agree that he is somewhere in the middle between Barry + Manu

[peskypesky]

"Money" sucks as a nick-name. It sounds like something from the 80s.

[peskypesky]

In any case, it doesn't matter what y'all vote. When Shaq gives him a nick-name, that's what it will be. And, much as it pains me to say it, whatever Shaq comes up with will be far better than anything we can come up with. Who here would've come up with "The Big Fundamental"?

[cool hand]

have the spurs ever used someone so quickly, makes you wonder why the fuck pop didn't do this with some of the other young ones that have come through here.

[xtremesteven33]

By the way, i spoke to my "Spurs Insider" to get Bill Land of Sean Elliott to say "Money" or "Ocho" as a reference to RMJ, and he neither confirmed nor denied that they would say it so.....lets see what happens.....

i still prefer "The OCHO"

I am trying to figure out what manu like qualities he has??

[AnotherArgie]

I don't like Money. He will be called Debt as soon as he has a couple of bad games.

[Joe Schmoogins]

whether you like it or not the Ocho brings thoughts of Chad Johnson and ESPN... so that's a definite no go imo.

Money is good as long as it is used properly... I don't like "Money" or "Money Mason" as they don't seem to have a ring to them. I do like "Roger Money Mason," or "Big Money Mason," because they just seem to roll off the tongue. I was ready to go with one of these, but after reading timvp's comments regarding the importance of jr... this needs to be rethought.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

RMJ breh

[Darkwaters]

I like the choice "Ocho". But Roger Money Mason probably is it.

[Mister Sinister]

General Nick Fury.

[I. Hustle]

Well thanks anyways

[bdictjames]

Free Mason!

[xtremesteven33]

Tim Duncan- "Big Fundamental"
Manu Ginobili-"El Contusion"
Tony Parker-?????

[bdictjames]

"Frenchie" ^

Tim Duncan- "Big Fundamental"
Manu Ginobili-"El Contusion"
Tony Parker-?????

Wee Frenchie?

[xtremesteven33]

haha...seriously though, Does Parker have a nickname?

[I. Hustle]

They used to call him Speedy Claxton

[Manufan909]

Mr. Longoria?

[Mister Sinister]

haha...seriously though, Does Parker have a nickname?
I call him Quicksilver.

roger mason jr >>>> barry

Period.

Yes, as it stands right now. There are definetly contrasts in their game in general. Historically, not just right now.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Wow, sure does look like CBF called it right when he said you are dumb jackasses for calling a player "money" after only 4 games because it sets him up for mockery.

[HarlemHeat37]

he was shooting 60+% and he's a streaky SG, he was obviously due for a bad game..

Pop shouldn't have started him anyways..look how pathetic our bench is..

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Utterly retarded. Hey he's scoring 60% for 4 games, he's a first year spur, let's call him "money"
fucking stupid

That is the type of nickname you have to earn.
All forty seven of you are going to look like total jackasses if he ends up being a typical streaky shooter who had an elson-esque first game streak.

[peskypesky]

I've been saying all along, "money" is a stupid nickname for Mason. He's not Ray Allen, people. Pull your heads out of your collective arse.

[peskypesky]

"Fluctuating Currency"

[Cant_Be_Faded]

lame

[Obstructed_View]

I'm pretty sure "Money" was one of Jordan's nicknames, "Mase" was Anthony Mason's nickname and "Ocho" sounds like Chad Johnson. How about we just call him "Magic" since we're being unoriginal?

[Spurtacus]

Show me the "Money".

[docjohn]

Okay, may be a mute point at this time, however the name "Mace Windu" has created some excitement over at PtR.
Points in favor being the inherent badassedness of Star Wars, combined with the overall kickassedness of Sam L Jackson. The "du" that the guy owns certainly looks like its been in the wind, the mace is pretty potent stuff, especially when its in your face.
Any thoughts?

[Obstructed_View]

Roger is primarily a common first name of English, French, and Catalan usage, ("Rogier", "Rutger" in Dutch) from the Germanic elements hrod (fame) and ger (spear) meaning "famous with the spear". The Latin form of the name is Rogerius, as used by a few medieval figures.

From c.1650 to c.1870 Roger was slang for the word "penis" probably due to the origin of the name involving fame with a spear. [2] [3] [4] Therefore "roger" became slang for "have sex with".

A mason is a worker who builds in brick or stone...

I thought Spearchucker would be a cool nickname but upon doing some research it's apparently a "racial epithet". I only knew it as the name of a guy on MASH who was a javelin champion in college.
