I saw a thread here a while back about a nickname. Did anyone come up with a good one?

Personally I just enjoy all of the puns his name phonetically enables.

Anything but the hand, god I hate that name. It's like calling Ginobili 'The Spot."

His mama named him Kawhi. Imma call him Kawhi.
His first name is so good that he doesn't need a nickname. Guys like The Admiral and The Mailman had to add ones because of pedestrian first names. Though they're both better than Earvin.

I've said Whi or KL all season and last. Those are what I'll stick with.
Sugar K Leonard nickname kinda sucks, tbh.

Why is a nickname necessary? He's Kawhi Leonard, for fuck's sake.

"Kingslayer" is a bit medieval but let's be honest, he went medieval on the Heat in games 3 and 4. That dunk attempt on Cuckoo was just plain disrespectful.

I'm pretty sure his teammates call him Whi sometimes. If it is to be a nickname people actually will use it has to be short.

A good game on Sunday, FMVP, then "Kingslayer" he will be. Game of thrones, game of zones.

Great reference, but this is the voice I hear it in.

Shaks nickname for him grows on me more and more, and it usually sticks when he nicknames someone such as TD being the big fundamental. Sugar K, while not very creative, has a nice ring to it, and I bet it sticks.

The Hand. It's gotta be. Fits him perfectly, it's topical with the Game of Thrones run, the Spurs players seem to have embraced it. Just like Payton was "the glove" on D. Kawhi is like a larger, much better tempered version of Gary.

I say his nickname should be "Monk" since he doesn't talk or show any emotion.

Kawhi 'Catbird' Leonard
"The catbird seat" is an idiomatic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiom) phrase used to describe an enviable position, often in terms of having the upper hand or greater advantage in all types of dealings among parties.
Usually a shy bird, it can be attracted by "pishing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pish)" sound. (calling it). Catbirds are not afraid of predators (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predator) and respond to them aggressively.
