Marcus Thornton Nicknames

Obviously MT5 gets used a lot, but on one of the Hornets blogs (Hornets 24/7 I believe) they started calling him "Lil' Buckets" and then dropped the Lil', so now he's just "Buckets".
I'm just kinda worn out on all the "XX#" nicknames... CP3 is perfect for Chris Paul and MT5 is cool and all, but is there anything else?

Hornets247 is the sports call in show of Hornets blogs. They have maybe 2 or 3 decent posters there and everyone else is epically stupid.
MT5 is going to stick because it's easier to type. Maybe we need another name if you're going to make a poster to take to the game, but if it's for us to type here MT5 or MT FTW.

Gil McGregor calls him "The Microwave" because he heats up quickly.

the cool thing about MT5 is that you can put a spin on the MTV logo, they used to have those signs at the LSU games.

"Thorntonator"

Somehow "Microwave" Marcus doesn't have the same ring to it as "Pistol" Pete.

He used to call Pargo the same thing. I don't want to saddle MT with anything left over from Pargo.

MT5 will stick for sure

U can't have a mt5 and a cp3.
Doesn't work.
Buckets is much easier to type and so much better.
Mt5 sounds sooooo dumb.

It doesn't sound dumb. But it does kinda sound like we're trying to come up with a clever acronym for every player. That's why I made this thread, to see what everyone else thought. And it seems like the majority of people like MT5, so MT5 it is

It's not about being clever it's about being lazy.
Magic Johnson
Larry Legend
Air Jordan
The Mailman
All 4 syllables or less. Even
Round Mound of Rebound
is 5 syllables.
We no longer talk about teams and players, we type about them them and when you make that shift from an effort point of view, letters = syllables.
Buckets 2 syllables but 7 letters
MT5 stupid to say but very easy to type.
