barnettej 263 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 Okay I have been thinking about this for sometime. We all know that Tobias is sporting number 12... Which is a bit odd you have to admit. However he has been a huge surprise, providing alot of highlights and applause. And I have used and heard the nickname "T12" float around.. It's cool... But... I think Tobias Deserves something a bit different. After watching his "how do you like me now, highlights" recently against the Bucks, I think I have a catchier and more fitting name.. Well atleast this is what I'm gonna call him: Optimus Prime Thoughts? (Sent my phone) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Hi-Top 791 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 If you want my support on a nickname for a player, you better come with something better than Optimus Prime as a nickname. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan the Magic Fan 253 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 Although I don't like Optimus Prime, I do agree that T12 needs to go. He's not Dwight. He's a whole different animal. If we are lucky he may end up even being better then Dwight (total longshot). He deserves an original nickname, not a retread of an old one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

barnettej 263 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 I was just letting you know my nickname for Tobias. And it's Optimus... Looking at all the photos, videos, quotes and write ups. And to me it fits. So that's what I'm going with. What others choose is cool to see, I know not everyone will have the same names to people and that's all good. This wasn't a permission thread. You can like it or not.

Mauro Pedrosa 1,033 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 I'd suggest something related to his all around game because I think that's the best thing about Tobias. Back in the day there were a lot of nicknames like "The Admiral" or "The Glove" but that doesn't happen anymore because we're just used to abbreviations due to writing on the internet and what not. Just look at all the "nicknames" now: Melo CP3 D-Wade D-Will LBJ KG KD ... even in our team: Hark Vuch (I don't really like this one) Henny :) So, the best thing IMO would be sticking with something that's easy to write.
