The Dan Patrick show has made a shirt celebrating the Portland Trail Blazers backcourt.
During LaMarcus Aldridge’s interview on The Dan Patrick Show last week, he pitched a nickname idea for Portland’s backcourt combo of Damian Lillard and Wesley Matthews.
Inspired by the “Splash Brothers” nickname for Golden State’s Steph Curry and Klay Thompson, Aldridge suggested “Rain Brothers.
LA: You’re making more though. When you’re making it rain you’re really making the 3. So just think about it. Rain brothers.
DP: How about the Rain Bros?
LA: That sounds better. More cool. I didn’t think you’d be more cool than me but I figured that out that you are more cool than me.
DP: Why don’t you work that in and just say these are the Rain Bros.
The shirts are 24.95 from small through XL. You can purchase them at danpatrickt-shirts.com.
What do you think about the nickname and the shirts?
Here’s video of Aldridge’s appearance last week on the DP show.
