    Umm, not allowed to wear green anymore, LeBron. Someone from Nike needs to send him a gold or purple one. Black and blue are also acceptable.

    Miss this guy so much! Especially with our void at the center spot. Moe better come correct, cause essentially we traded Lance for that 1st round pick.

    Moe will be more valuable than Larry to the team ultimately. Once broken in and used to the NBA game. Similar motor but with more size and actually has offensive skills. Physicality will come. Am sure he's pretty smart about the game too or they would not have picked him.

    I'm not worried about Moe at all. He has more talent and plays with more emotion than Larry does for better or for worse. The only thing Larry has that Moe doesn't is that bounce off the court. Moe and his energy are going to win us games. Maybe not next year but his impact will be made in practice and in the culture.

    Tough to match the intangibles that Larry brought (awesome lockerroom guy and teammate).

    Plus let's not act like all Nance had was hops.

    Nance was our best defender last year ( >20 mins per)...so till proven otherwise, Moe has alot to cover for what we miss with Nance.

    I've got to admit I was never much of a Nance fan. I loved his hustle but man, his game was just too limited. His refusal/inability to shoot the ball when open was maddening and made him a total spacing killer. I'm looking forward to Mo as he's a bit bigger/stronger and he can knock down open looks. I think he's exactly what we need off the bench. No disrespect to Larry, I know he was a fan fave around here. But I wasn't sad to see him go.

    He was limited on offense, but he did a lot of stuff that didn’t show up in box scores. Allegedly.

    If we missed him much, I’m not sure I could tell.

    We didn't miss him because Randle got more minutes which is what we should have been doing all year long. Larry did have good basketball instincts and IQ, there is no doubt about that. He knew the game and his second generation NBA pedigree helped with that a lot. He had more maturity than our other young guys too because he was a 4 year college player. I liked him personally a lot and he was obviously a great teammate and guy. That part I miss. The lack of any kind of offensive moves at all besides dunking, not so much.

    Mo won't be shy about scoring and shooting. Let's hope he can prove to be as good a defensive player as Nance. I think he can work up to that.
