    Mad Max tweeted recently how bad a nickname CWood is and how much he hates it. He’s 100% correct and it’s painful to hear our announcers abuse it each and every game. You don’t call Gordon EGordon or Lebron LJames or Kawai KLeonard or Harden JHarden. Just a moronic nickname made up by our announcers. In Detroit he was sometimes called the Crucifix. We can certainly do better than his first initial and last name. He’s not applying for a driver’s license, he’s the Most Improved Player in the NBA and deserves a better nickname than CWood.

    Y'know, I was kind of with you until you started talking about "the Crucifix" as an alternative. CWood is not that bad. Maybe CDUB or CDouble.. naw.. everything sounds bad now that I can't get "the Crucifix" out of my head.

    I def think there should be lumber in there

    holy lumber

    skinny Log

    tree of terror

    wood you rather?

    Christ the re-tree-mer

    branches

    lumbersmack

    ... I’m really disappointed in the lack of puns from our broadcasting crew . I was sure we were gonna get tons of “wood penetrates and finishes strong” .. “Christian on a mission”.. We haven’t even gotten a “Wood , carving them up” yet !

    Totem pole ?

    Now they're about to slander the cw network on here. Just a reminder This network is just fine and better at connected universes than DC!
