Overrated?

I personally feel the "overrated" sentence is more of an opinion thing...FamicomJL 14:57, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is. Basketball 110 _{vandalise me} 00:22, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fired

Van Gundy was fired shortly after the series, then "retired".

Irrelevant

"JVG", as he is known in Internet fandom..." What does it matter what people call him on the Internet? And why is this in bold? StanHater (talk) 02:39, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Criss Cross Applesauce?

That phrase has been around since I was like 8. JVG didn't coin that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.160.16.24 (talk) 18:29, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Jefferino Hot Dog Buddy" nickname

On May 4, 2023, apparently he stated on ESPN that his father called him this nickname as a young child. There is no evidence from WP:RS that this is a current nickname, and therefore it is not appropriate to add it as a current nickname. I feel it may be appropriate to add it to the "Early life" section, provided a WP:RS is cited. Wikipedialuva (talk) 03:54, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
