Denver Nuggets fans have grown accustomed to watching Chris “Birdman” Anderson come off the bench and bring tons of energy and excitement. Birdman has been a key to the Nuggets success this year, and fans are showing their support with their hair, shirts and signs. The Lakers have their own secret weapon, the Llama Man…

Chris Anderson got the name “Birdman” from his high flying dunks and his up tempo style of play. He could catch and dunk balls most big men wouldn’t even try to. He also runs the floor better than most big men. The name caught on and Birdman has become known around the sports world as an energetic, hard working fan favorite.

Today, I’m unveiling the new name for Pao Gasol, the Llama Man. He’s known for his long hair and dirty beard. He doesn’t fly around or jump very high, but he could be included in an animal planet documentary. He strolls the floor, stands under the basket and eats up all the scraps that the predators leave behind. Due to his irregularly long neck and hairy physique, Pao Gasol will now be known as the Llama Man.

Game 5 very well could be decided by which animal has the best game. Birdman vs Llama Man, you heard it here first people.
