If we are going to be including this information as general style, we should use a template rather than a hand-coded table. I guess I'll try the WT:NBA page. — CharlotteWebb 00:15, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Why does it belong in the intro? The nickname isn't exactly what makes him notable. I think stuff like (a) he's a professional basketball player and (b) he's been an NBA Finals MVP are more notable than his nickname. It's not essential information that changes how people think about the subject in an earth-shattering way. -- Mosmof ( talk) 23:44, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
The issue here isn't whether or not he's clutch. It's encyclopedic protocol--for information to be in the lede, it has to be essential, and supported by sources. I'm not particularly moved on this one either way, but if you're going to go strong to the hoop, you'd best have your team (references and accepted conventions, which I've tried to help line up) behind you for the rebound. Also, this is a legitimate difference of opinion, not vandalism, so it's in everyone's interest not to automatically undo previous edits. This is not worth edit-warring. Now, I have to get back to ESPN. JNW ( talk) 16:55, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
It has been just over a year since Billups was traded from the Detroit Pistons to the Denver Nuggets, and the image of Billups in the red Pistons uniform needs to be changed to that of a Nuggets uniform. He wore No. 7 during the 2008-09 season (as a tribute to Denver Broncos hall-of-fame quarterback John Elway), but during the offseason, he reverted to the No. 1 jersey, the same number he wore with the Pistons. Teammate J.R. Smith, who previously wore No. 1, agreed to change his jersey number (to No. 5) in order to accomodate Billups' request to wear No. 1 for the current 2009-10 season. I've been searching for images of Billups in his new No. 1 Nuggets jersey, but haven't had much luck, I've seen several images of Billups in his (now) old No. 7 jersey. If anyone sees a good image of Billups in his newer Nuggets No. 1 jersey, please step up and replace the current profile image. Thank you. -- DPH1110
