Welcome back Jabbar.
How did you celebrate your off season knowing Lakers have tied the Celtics for championships?

In the second world war the opponents had several superior battle tank models to the relatively crude and ungainly US General Sherman tanks. The opposing tanks were produced with more skill but in fewer numbers and they were more spread out. If a Sherman encountered say, a German tank 1 on 1 it would easily lose every time. It actually required approximately 4 Shermans to take out 1 Tiger tank (3 of them sacrificial). Shermans thus started teaming up together to overcome the deficit.
So my guess is his superteaming strategy of recruiting to have 4+ to beat 1 German - and throwing the others under the bus when necessary - etc has lead to him earning this nickname.
