The Nets have a few guys on the team that have classic nicknames so we know what they will go with but they have not officially unveiled all of the names yet.

Here are some of the names that we know will make it to the nickname game for the Nets:

Deron Williams D-Will

Kevin Garnett – The Big Ticket

Paul Pierce – Truth

Joe Johnson – JJ (I prefer Joe, Jesus)

Jason Terry – Jet

Andrei Kirilenko – Кириленко (AK47)

Mason Plumlee – Plums
