Sheed’s nicknames

I've been pimping these videos all week long, but that's because they're hilarious. Kudos to Alana ((edit: fixed the link.)) and Yardbarker for getting Sheed to let his guard down. Alana forget to ask about Showbe/Snowflake/Afflac Afflalo but that's probably a good thing -- he probably would have dropped yet another nickname on us.

“Chuck?”

That’s what ‘Melo called AI, too — I’m guessing it’s something that’s well-known among NBA players but hasn’t caught on with the fans.

’Sheed is the best. I hope he plays in league longer than Mutombo.

Isn’t “Chuck” short for “Bubbachuck” – AI’s nickname from childhood?

Is this the game thread? If so, let’s do this.

Great video. I love ’Sheed. I especially wish I could be a fly on the wall when brings up Michael Jackson to AI.

But on a more substantive level, I couldn’t help noticing how many of his team-mates he described — in the middle of what was obviously sincere praise and affection — as “thin” and/or “undersized.” It’s a real issue for the Pistons
