I personally love Mike Tirico's idea today, as he refered to him as "Red Bull". Just fits perfectly, what do you think?

I've heard him called
Red Bull
El Torro
Raging Bull
Noch
Chapu
I think Chapu is what they called him in Argentina... I think it would be a real cool chant in the UC... bet it would really fire him up.

Chapulin is very similar to the bumble bee man on the Simpsons. It's incredibly popular in latin countries and the name translates to "the Red Grasshopper"

I like the Red Bull idea. Either way he's a freaking beast. I love Noc, Deng and Hinrich.

Noc has gotta be one of my favorite players, and prolly the biggest steal for the bulls since he went undrafted.

i like all those names we just need every one in the UC to know what we are talking about so they chant along.

Hey! Great idea that maybe Chapu would get him fired up! May bring good memories or something! Red Bull is also good! Oh this is difficult!

If only he'd have kept his hair longer, we would be calling him Shaggy.

I like red bull and raging bull, but Chapu is really freaking cool. It honors his heritage and probably makes him feel at home.

i thin that it would get him fired up so he getter a trple- double every game like he can do. also i like that it is from his heritage so he will like it and not get offended by it and want to leave chicago my olny worry is that when his contract is up will he want to stay in chiago or will he want to go to a different team.

He wont ever be a TRIPLE DOUBLE threat because of his poor passing. Untill that changes I could see him being a Consistent double double threat night in and night out.

I would go with Chapu too, but I don't know if anything would be cooler than the NO-CI-O-NI chants like they did last year. Spine tingling.
