Bryn “Forbclosure” Forbes needs a better nickname than “Forbclosure” which I just came up with and it sucks, and it also needs to be better than “Sparty”, because you can’t just randomly decide that Forbes, out of all the Michigan State Spartans that have played in the NBA, gets to be the one with the diminutive form of “Spartan”. That’s right, Spurs commentators. I’m calling you out for that crappy nickname. And I still haven’t forgiven you for referring to Brandon Paul as “smooth and chocolatey”. Some sins are unforgivable.
Speaking of unforgivable sins, by the way, don’t even THINK about blaspheming the Holy Ghost unless you really want a one-way ticket to hell forever. I already accidentally did it, so my soul is damned forever, and I want to help people avoid the same fate.
But back to Forbes. I’m thinking a nickname that somehow references the fact that he’s like a slightly worse version of Stephen Curry who has the benefit of probably believing that the moon landings happened would be a good fit for him. If you’re thinking Curry is a bad comp for him, think about the last time that dude hit all of his threes while shooting 5 or more. It’s only happened ONE TIME, when he went 6 for 6 back in 2010, but Forbes just went 5 of 5 here in 2018. Recency bias means that Forbes’ performance is way better.
