Live or Die Magic 383 Report post Posted August 6, 2012 If Davis is truly serious about the nickname change, then he needs to help his own cause. His website and twitter feed are "Iambigbaby." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamminJ21 35 Report post Posted August 6, 2012 That video was from 2010 when he was a celtic still. I would assume that he has embraced his nickname at this point and run with it as a "brand" Davis was given his nickname when he was 9 years old by a youth league coach. At 5'6", 160 pounds, he was too large to play pee-wee and played as a senior. He used to cry when playing with his older teammates, and his coach would tell him, "Stop crying, you big baby." ^^lol^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makin' Cutestory Bacon 24 Report post Posted August 8, 2012 At the end of the season, I started calling him Glen "Big Hustle" Davis. Not a good nickname though. His nickname is already too embedded into his life to just change so easily. Maybe if he has a long stay here, it may change. Has to just happen though on its own means. Can't be fabricated.

God Hates Otis Smith 153 Report post Posted August 8, 2012 let's slow down on the special stuff, for 2/3 of last year he struggled but I will give him credit, he stepped up big time after Dwight got hurt and played great in the playoffs, he has been a good ambassador for the team and has lost in excess of 30 pounds this off-season. I'm sure he'll have a good season next year but "special" is what Dwight used to be 2-3 years ago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure he'll have a good season next year but "special" is what Dwight used to be 2-3 years ago It seems we will be needing to lower our expectations as a fanbase. In our new reality, BBD is the new standard for "special." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
