"Once it goes in, it never comes back out" - Danny Ainge explains why Kevin McHale earned the most accurate nickname in NBA history
"Once it goes in, it never comes back out" - Danny Ainge explains why Kevin McHale earned the most accurate nickname in NBA history originally appeared on Basketball Network. No player is allowed to be a superstar in the NBA without a nickname. It's a rite of passage, a signal to the world that you have arrived, a name that will stick side-by-side with a player's legacy throughout their career. Advertisement We've had some incredible ones over the years — "The Truth", "The Answer", "White Chocolate", "Air Jordan", "King James", "The Black Mamba", "The Mailman" and "Dr J" are just a handful among many nicknames that have graced the Association and injected some magic back into competition. But for every "Chef Curry", "Joker" or "Slim Reaper", there are equally peculiar ones that have somehow stuck, even when slightly questionable or confusing at first. Boston Celtics legend Kevin McHale falls into this category after his teammates dubbed him "The Black Hole" in the 1980s. While it might seem like a bizarre nickname to bestow on a Hall of Famer, luckily for him, it did come with a perfectly logical explanation. Danny Ainge makes the call Most people nowadays recognize Danny Ainge as one of the top-tier executives in the league. Still, he also had a quietly successful playing career that spanned from 1981 to 1995. During that time, he collected two championship rings with the Boston Celtics. Although he wasn't a world-beater on the court, he played a role alongside some of the greatest names the league has ever seen. Advertisement Those names included Larry Bird, Robert Parish, Dennis Johnson, and, of course, Kevin McHale. Night in and night out, Ainge shared the floor with these all-timers, and his experience as a player is likely a key ingredient in his successful transition into an elite front office operator. The titles were nice, but Danny is responsible for handing out one of McHale's most unusual and hilarious nicknames ever. Dubbing the talented power forward "The Black Hole" raised a lot of eyebrows at first. Still, Ainge had perfectly good reasoning for it. "I called Kevin the black hole. Once it goes in, it never comes back out", he explained. When looking back, it's hard to argue with Danny's justification. Not because McHale was a ball hog, but because he was so supremely gifted in the post that the ball rarely ever needed to come back out. During an era where the game was exclusively played inside-out, the 6'11" forward to this day remains arguably the best post player the league has ever seen. Advertisement He was dominant in scoring the ball and creating for others with his back to the basket, and that's saying something considering he played alongside other legends who also had that in their arsenal. As for the nickname, it's barely ever discussed in modern NBA circles, but it was every bit worthy of its description. Perhaps it's not brought up because McHale himself is rarely spoken about, which is disappointing given he is undoubtedly one of the all-time great power forwards in league history.

The reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has a shortened initialism of "SGA," but that doesn't feel powerful enough. Advertisement It would be unjust not to give Tyrese Haliburton a nickname after his playoff run with the Indiana Pacers. The same could be said for Jalen Brunson after he led the New York Knicks to their first Eastern Conference Finals in 25 years. It's clear that there are some worthy All-Stars who have yet to be given their basketball alias. It's only a matter of time before someone takes a leaf out of Ainge's book and hands them out.

NBA》James點名Jordan啟發他最多 順便嗆網民「你們一定又要說我想和他組團了」
在最新一集的《Mind The Game》節目中，詹姆士(LeBron James)談到誰是啟發他最多的前輩球星時，毫不猶豫地提起喬丹(Michael Jordan)，他也不忘趁機嘴一下酸民和媒體，表示已經可以預想到自己會如何被酸。 詹姆士說道：「沒有人比喬丹給我更多啟發了。對我來說，我認為我們的比賽風格很互補，他就是全力以赴的得分好手，不斷得分、得分、得分…如果我挑選他，但我知道我不能，因為我知道社群媒體是怎麼運作的，你們這些XX會說：你現在想和喬丹一起打球了！？你已經和很多XX好球員當隊友了…我已經可以看到新聞標題：詹姆士想和喬丹一起打球。」 "There was nobody more inspiring to me than Michael Jordan... but I know I can't pick him because I know how social media works. ... I can see the headline already: 'LeBron wants to play with Michael Jordan.'"- LeBron James 😅(via @mindthegamepod) — ClutchPoints (@ClutchPoints) July 14, 2025 很顯然地，詹姆士也深知自己多年來最常被酸的就是不停組團，包括將天賦帶往邁阿密、到湖人聯手戴維斯(Anthony Davis)等，近年也陸續和威斯布魯克(Russell Westbrook)、唐契奇(Luka Doncic)等球星合作拚冠，每當他稱讚哪個球員時，網路上總是會出現詹姆士又看上誰的言論。 事實上除了喬丹之外，詹姆士在節目上還提及哈達威(Penny Hardaway)、皮本(Scottie Pippen)及希爾(Grant Hill)等人的名字，他表示這些控球前鋒的打球方式都深深影響他。 即將邁入第23個職業賽季的詹姆士，除了依舊是球場上最具影響力的球員之外，場外成為新聞話題的功力同樣無人能及，包括和湖人隊的關係如何發展、何時高掛球鞋、和喬丹的「GOAT」之爭，總是能在網路上引起熱烈迴響。

Bikini bombshell Elizabeth Hurley shares her 'secret' for the perfect swimsuit selfie
Elizabeth Hurley is sharing some of her model magic with the world. The actress-model, who's become known for her glamorous bikini-clad portraits on social media, opened up about her process for taking the skin-baring photos in a July 13 Instagram post. True to form, the post featured a picture-perfect shot of Hurley, 60, posing in a light brown bikini as a golden beam of sunlight illuminated her figure. "The secret to flattering bikini pics? BAN overhead sunlight 🤣," Hurley wrote. "When shooting bikinis, sunrise or sunset are your best friends 😉," she continued. "We shot this at 7am… By 8am, I was lounging around in one of my equally flattering @elizabethhurleybeach kaftans, feeling glamorous AND shielded from the lethal sun ♥️." A post shared by Elizabeth Hurley (@elizabethhurley1) Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus: Couple teases romance with affectionate Easter post Hurley, known for her roles in the Austin Powers franchise, "Bedazzled" and "The Royals," is no stranger to the modeling world. In 1995, the actress became a spokesmodel for cosmetics titan Estée Lauder, which led to a decades-long relationship with the New York City label. "I was far from an ingénue, having had my first modeling job at 29," Hurley reflected during a 2008 luncheon, per The Daily Front Row. She added that Evelyn Lauder, then-senior corporate vice president of Estée Lauder, was "like my second mom." Elizabeth Hurley 'felt comfortable' filming sex scene directed by son Damian Hurley Hurley has also appeared in several advertising and fashion campaigns for brands such as Jordache, Got Milk?, Monsoon, and Lancel. Additionally, she's landed the cover of British Vogue three times. In an October 2020 interview with People magazine, Hurley reflected on her "out-of-the-blue" introduction to the modeling industry with her Estée Lauder gig. "I acted for years before I got my first modeling job," she told the outlet. "I was an actress, not really a model." But the modeling gene runs in the family. Hurley's son, Damian Hurley, whom she shares with late businessman Steve Bing, has modeled for makeup brand Pat McGrath Labs and was previously signed to top agency IMG Models.
