Wrong. Laker's current radio announcer Spero Dedes gave it to him because he never misses a shot during practice, but sucks during gametime... Joel Meyers and Stu Lance popularized it in LA.
ESPN says self problaimed because Marv Albert incorrectly said it during one of the national TV games. So NO, SASHA DID NOT give the nickname for himself.
