If Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are called The Jays, why aren't Devin Booker and Kevin Durant called The Evins? (alien.top)

Title. I was pontificating on this while in the shower. The Celtics duo has such a quick, snappy nickname, so I was wondering why the same isn't applied to the Suns' star players. What do y'all think?

They’ve played 3 games together and fizzled hard in the playoffs. Give it some time. You don’t just get a snazzy nickname. Also who calls those fools “The Jays”. How old are you? Don’t make posts like this anymore. Promise!

No one outside Boston calls them the Jays.

Adding a pair of consecutive dubs (w’s) gets you from Andre “Iggy” to Andrew “Wiggy.” Not bad for a pair of Golden State Dubs.
