Can It Seriously Be The Penguin?
Andre Millers nickname is The Penguin!? Does anyone have anymore info on this? Can we give him a new, more gnarly sounding nickname with out offending him? Somehow, "The Penguin" nickname doesnt seem to intimidating. Any good ideas?

I wonder how/why he got it?
Its unique to say the least—but is it a diss to him or a nickname he likes?

A mean disposition and an affection for suishi?

A smooth personal style and cavalier way with the ladies?

I think that dre is a boring nickname.
The Penguin is excellent.

How about
The chartreuse mamba. Unfortunately, the much more menacing sounding black mamba and yellow mamba nicknames are already taken by a couple of other dudes in the league…

or there goes our cap space
"There are a few teams you have to watch out for in the fourth quarter."
"Yeah, but Portland definitely is not one of them."
-New Orleans Hornets broadcasters at the end of the third quarter with the Hornets leading 74-59. Portland later ends up winning 97-89.
"They don't mind him shooting that shot at all. Rudy Fernandez is not that great of a 3pt shooter."
-New Orleans Hornets broadcasters right after a Rudy Fernandez missed 3pter. Rudy Fernandez finished the game with three 3pters on six attempts.

Penguins!
I saw a description of Andre Miller where they referred to him as thick or pudgy or something. So maybe that’s where the nickname comes from.
The good new is, according to Wiki:
“In the water, however, penguins are astonishingly agile.”
So maybe in the water is like on the basketball court for Andre??

How about.....
Geritol or Geri for short. Because he is the oldest guy on the team.

The Penguin?
Are the Blazers getting Burgess Meredith (thanks for the picture, timbo!) or Ron Cey? Either way, let’s all hope that Miller outplays his nickname.
