The swag daddy has earned the nickname. Dude just has that swagger.

Can't take any pro ball player seriously with that stupid nickname.

We went from MJ, Magic, and Sir Charles to Swaggy P? WTF

[carstarphen]

Hes still trying to earn that Houston contract

I thought Swaggy P's nickname came about from his friends  , I don't know why everyone assumes he gave the nickname to himself. I remember seeing Jordan Farmar talking about it from their AAU days, they wouldn't reveal what the P meant because they wanted it to remain personal.

Kobe def calls hims something but it aint Swaggy lol

[torresedwin]

Telling him to step his game up, this can either be really good (motivation) ot really bad, (drama)

[MrBluepenguin]

Why does nick have to prove anything to him? This is why Lin won't fit in

[_samxali]
