[edit] The Landlord?

I watched SW play for his entire career at Duke and don't recall anyone calling him the Landlord. Anyone got any proof of the notability of this nickname? Dubc0724 16:19, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Truly incredulous that you are saying this. Duke53 | ^Talk 06:17, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

I simply asked a question. Maybe someone will actually answer it? Dubc0724 13:04, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, I have to agree that it's somewhat hard to believe that you watched him play for his entire career and never heard anybody call him the Landlord. But I assume good faith per wikipedia policy. So here's a link to back up the claim: Shelden Williams: "Landlord" Ready for NBA Now. And on CBS Sporstline: "Shelden Williams' 'Landlord' nickname has carried over from his Duke days" [1].
