Jordan Clarkson Nickname

Jordan Lite is less direct in that he's not quite like Jordan and uses his actual first name; [BB]Jordanesqu is saying he is like Jordan, which is less accurate[/B].

Jordanesque is more accurate actually. Jordan is exactly like Jordan.

It's a play on words.

Bagyo.

Reasoning:
Tulsa -> Golden Hurricanes (wtf).

Golden hurricanes in tagalog = “gintong bagyo”

Since we likely want to avoid the “golden” part of the equation to avoid associations with the fact that Filipino kids/women are trafficked at a high rate, the word for hurricane is the better candidate. And it sounds like a good nickname for someone who rains 3’s.

Bagyo.

Can you teach us to pronounce?

Yes, it's a pun, but Jordanesque means he is like Jordan, Jordan Lite means he's a lesser version of Jordan. Whatever, no one else seems to like these Jordan derivations but us.

No worries. No one needs to think these names are any good...just better than the Op's. Which they are. :D

That's for sure ... the Filipino Flame ... lol In any case, I can't believe how he fell to us. I noticed he scored 42 in a game this year with the Cavs. The guy really is a younger version of Lou Williams, very similar game.

Let the name come organically or don’t give him one at all... what if we had given Kosta some BS nickname before he became Boom Bitches.

It's only been a few days so we'll see if he ever reaches Lou's body of work. But he is certainly brought a spark to this team and its speed and athleticism is much a spark. It is chemistry between him and Donovan is for real, the bromance will reap great rewards for the team. Can't wait.

If people here thought Aussie and Turkish fans were wild, wait til they see the Filipino fans. Clarkson is 1/4 Filipino and he's got like Kpop level stans on twitter lol.

Really? I did not know that.

I do agree some Filipino fans are also wild.
So in behalf of the sane Jazz and basketball fans, i apologize in advance :)

Yes we do love food. Following your line of thinking, i can't, however, come up with anything food related. But again, NO please on Filipino whatever.

Fair enough. To be honest, it's hard to come up with something related to Philippines's culture.

BTW, I've never seen a country so obsessed with basketball as Philippines.
 
How about flip? Flip the flipper Clarkson.
 
Alindog!

All in dog!

But in Tagalog it means personal charm, gorgeousness.

He's our all-in dog. Comes off the bench and kills the other team because he plays all-in. Which also makes him charming and gorgeous.

Full disclosure I got pretty wasted at the Alindog bar located in Guam when I was a sailor. I was there with two female filipino-american sailors. Me and another white guy tried to "cheers" each other and as we smashed our steins together they exploded onto the floor. The owners were super chill and we got new beers and watched the ladies play pool.

I'll never forget the Alindog bar in Guam!
