The Duke Blue Devils have apparently nicknamed guard DeMarcus Nelson "Firestarter", presumably for his basketball play, and not a heretofore unknown arson charge. I find this a wonderful motivational technique and think all Duke players should have Stephen King nicknames:

• Josh McRoberts - The Stand
  
• Greg Paulus - Misery
  
• Jon Scheyer - Desperation
  
• Lance Thomas - Bag of Bones
  
• Brian Zoubek - The Dead Zone
  
• Dave McClure - The Long Walk
  
• Gerald Henderson - Dolores Claiborne
