WHAT's WITH THE NICKNAME?

[Bradford P. Millsap]

The name is Tim or Timothy, NOT "TIMMEY"; I don't care how affectionate David Chanselor wants to get about him, for God's sake, he's a grown MAN.
Knock off w/ the crapola & call him the way he deserves to be labled

[Kori Ellis]

Pop calls him Timmy.

Tony calls him Timmy.

Manu calls him Timmy.

[DaSpurs#1]

i call him timmy... so whats wrong with calling him timmy??? seems like your the only one that has a prob with it, although i wonder why you call him "Timothy"???? :lol :spin :lol

[NASpurs]

Uhh aren't they imitating that character from South Park when they say his name like that? Well that's how it sounds when those ESPN guys do it

[cherylsteele]

It is the same thing as calling Robert Horry Big Shot Bob
Emmanuel Ginobilli = Manu
David Robinson = Dave
and so on.
Since when do you spell Timmy with an "E" anyways?

[ShoogarBear]

I call him Booby.

[samikeyp]

When we hang out, I call him T-Dog. :lol

[Summers]

I call him Booby.

Hey, where did all our Chinese friends go?

[ZStomp]

[Kori Ellis]

Okay, I think the original poster gets the point now. We can move on out of this thread.

[Das Texan]

[Summers]

I call him Timmy.

:lol Troublemaker.

[T-Pain]

[whottt]

I call him Ted, Teddy or Theodore.

Or The Big Fundamental...that's a cool nic, even if Shaq did come up with it.

Its "Big Shot ROB". This is actually a player preferance. Horry said it himself either last season or the season prior that he didnt like the "Bob" title. It has been "Big Shot ROB" since his H-town days.

[whottt]

False...Kobe gave him that nickname after after he hit a game winner in the first round against Portland on the Lakers last title run. Duncan is the one that changed it to Bob officially...and he knows Horry doesn't like it, which is why he does it :).

[RealEstateDude]

pad.....

I stand corrected, could have sworn it was when he hit the huge three in Houstons first or second title run.

I am pretty sure that Tim gets some liberties that the rest of us should leave alone. When my girlfriend says Bob she gets "the look". :lol

[Obstructed_View]

Nuggets call him "daddy".

[PM5K]

After a game like today, it's

TIMMMMMMMMAAYYYYY!

I always say that after a dunk, or a great move...

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Sorry, Horry should know that when a nickname sticks..the person being nicknamed can't change it....Screw Horry. You can't give yourself your own nickname, and arrange it. That's lame. Hence Shaq, who's got a billion nicknames for himself..but we can thank him for Timmy's "Big Fundamental" .

Big Shot Bob is better than Big Shot Rob...More Sharpshooter Cowboyee, Rob doesn't ring as well as Bob.

I love that Timmy made it official, "Big Shot Bob...Big Shot Bobbehh...." after that Game 5.

[TimFan]

They were mainly surfing on the Chinaspurs.com and/or hoopchina.com. BTW, for them to watch game 1, it was 1:00am - 3:30am in China. So these lovely fans are gonna go to school or work with the red eyes.
:rolleyes

Partially correct. Kobe did give him the nickname Big Shot Bob during the Lakers run in '02 (also gave him the nickname Kickstand, but that's another story). It's always been Bob since the nickname was given, Robert hates the "Bob" and has tried to at least change it to "Rob" but has been unsuccessful. Duncan, last year, started calling him Bobby so it became Big Shot Bobby as a joke.

Actually, except this Spurs-Mavs game 1, nearly all of the playoffs games are played between 8:30 am and 1:00 pm (Eastern China time), we are all going to school or working at office.

What I can do is go to nba.com to read the boxscore :angel

:lol I think only 2 posters in this entire thread know the origion of why Chancelor, Sportscenter dudes, and Sean Elliot all say TIMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY.

[Kori Ellis]

:lol I think only 2 posters in this entire thread know the origion of why Chancelor, Sportscenter dudes, and Sean Elliot all say TIMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY.

No, I think everyone gets it but the original poster. But I think he was referencing Chancellor just calling him Timmy not just Timaaaaaay. He seems to think he should be called Tim or Timothy.

And I think you should learn how to spell Elliott:)

[T-Pain]

sometimes i call Bruce Brucie when hes doin good

[MannyIsGod]

I'll spell Elliot any way I damn please! (because it annoys Timvp)

[T Park]

when he misses a free throw its goddamnttimmy

[greyforest]

:lol I think only 2 posters in this entire thread know the origion of why Chancelor, Sportscenter dudes, and Sean Elliot all say TIMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY.

no, we know

doesnt make a whole lot of sense though since tdunc isnt a tard in a wheelchair though :spin

[pache100]

I call him Timmy...before a free-throw: "Ok, Timmy, point your toes and bend your knees...in the bucket, Timmy!" When he misses the shot..."Shit, Timmy, the big round thing on the post for crying out loud!" When he waltzes to the basket and tips one in softly..."Thanks, Timmy!"

What the hell is wrong with calling him Timmy? It's a perfectly acceptable and affectionate name for someone we all love. Get over yourself. Call him Mr. Duncan if you want, but don't tell me what to call him.

[ObiwanGinobili]

no, But Timmy is quite fond of the word retard. :spin

YES YES !!! I knew I wasn't the only one who noticed! :tu :tu

Timmy makews like 90% Ft's when he goes pigeon toed.

That is the absolute UGLIEST stance for shooting free-throws I have ever seen in my life :lol . But, I can tell before he releases the ball whether or not it will go in, by the way he's standing. When he's very tired or hurting, he does not bend his knees as much and misses a lot. It may be ugly, but if it works for him, I'm all for it!
