Maine Event ain’t bad tho (Edit), He’s nickname should be the Coop-erang or the Cooped Crusader or something with some more sauce
Main Event is cool. Maine Event is goofy and dumb.
Nice one
I’m still calling him Hooper Flagg
I prefer Cooper ‘Capture the’ Flagg.
Cheesy but eh whatever. lol.
Maine Event is decent, if he keeps this clutch time scoring up then he’s Cooper Clutch imo
I thought it was gonna be “the Maine Coop” like a Maine Coon cat lol
He is born in Newport Maine guys lol The Maine Event is a great nickname for him currently until we can get a better one for him down the road
Hmm… “The Maine Event”. Not sure what I think about it yet. I feel like it’s a good first draft, but we can do better.
That’s been his nickname for a good while. Just wonder when he gets his first nickname christened by NBA players or media. Think of how KP is the Unicorn, Wemby is the Alien, or how AD is Street Clothes. Or some throwbacks to Paul Pierce (The Truth) and Shaq (Diesel)
Maybe Followill will strike lightning twice and give Coop his nickname like how he did with Luka
I heard one of the Mavs announcers call him that too
White Mamba
I still love “The Blockin’ Dude,” if you know you know.
