"Overrated" or "A lot to prove" ... sorry, but he's done nothing to deserve a nick-name at this point, especially any of the ones suggested. People are getting a bit carried away with the importance of a guy who has done very little to contribute to the success of this team. We'll see what happens this season, and maybe then we'll consider a nick-name. (I like GreenHell's "Invisible Man" as well - TP).

Ok, I reset all votes to 0 so you can vote again with more of a crowdsourced list.


Sorry, but this Green worship is nauseating.  The kid hasn't even begun to earn a nickname.

Holy Jeff Green, Super 8, the Leprechaun is with the. We kiss thy Green Lantern at the alter and bathe in the Greenious that holds thy Magic 8 Ball. You were traded for our sins of dominating in 2008, but we realize it was a sacrifice for the championship and you have returned and have dawned the number 8 to remind us of your Glory.



Amen

TP for you sir!

Super 8 gets my vote, especially if he continues to help the team.

"continues" to help the team? I'd like him to "start" to help the team.

As for nicknames, Mr. SofTee is the first thing that comes to mind.

Good Ole vinnie - always looking at the bright side of things. ;)

For a player that was traded from one team to another for such a popular player (Perk)...

For a player who was coming into Boston with 2 strikes against him no matter what...

For a player who was not used according to his strengths in OKC (he's a natural SF, but was made to play PF in OKC)...

Jeffrey Lynn Green seems to have made some strides here in GreenTown, to me.

He went from having a defensive rating of roughly 109 during his OKC days all the way down to 102 during his 26 games in Boston.

He made all of these adjustments and did not complain or whine, either.

Didn't complain in OKC, either.

I look forward to a full training camp with Jeff Green and what a year's difference will make for him in Boston.

And all of a sudden - a 2nd string lineup of Rondo, Jeff and Jajuan Johnson is looking awfully fast and athletic, to me.

And God forbid Paul gets injured or has to sit a few games next year? I have no issues with Jeff Green taking his spot while he recovers.

And then once Paul comes back? We all know that Jeff Green won't complain about going back to the bench, either.

That humbleness will pay off for Boston in the long run, to me.

[dang]nnn that's an awful lot of excuses to in the end just say he had a good attitude about sucking

Wheels!  This guy flys faster than the jet down the court.  Seriously, I think he could be the fastest guy his size and up running down the court on a fast break.

Both of these are a winner, although Bambi also is not bad.

How about "Still Too"?
Only one he's deserved so far.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

with the last name "Green", a nickname seems redundant...
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
Today is a gift...
   That is why it is called the present.
