    Loved his energy, but much like Julius it felt sort of aimless. He's my backup 4.

    He's my back up backup 4 off the bench. Give Kuzma a lot of his minutes please.

    i'd use him at backup 5 if the other team is small. i envision nance having a nick collison type role and career if things all break right.

    Yeah not starting material. He'd be fine as a back up 4 and spot minutes at the 5 if we want to go small.

    i like him as a glue guy, but if he's starting, there better be three all stars in that group.

    haha, i swear, if I hear "Draymond Role" describing Randle ever again, you will feel the full clown down. First of all, Draymond is an all world defender. Second, he can shoot. Third, he is like Dennis Rodman in letting you know how much his team is gonna whip your a**. Randle is NONE of those.

    Randle can fill a Draymond role.

    The only time Nance should be at the 5, is if we’re playing a very small team, like the Warriors with Draymond at the 5. Otherwise, stop it already. He got torn up by the Wolves bigs on the boards, and he got beat down by Plumlee today. He’s not tall enough, and now with the weight loss especially not big enough to be going against guys like that. Stop it Luke, stop it.

    Hopefully with Bogut and Lopez coming back soon, we'll see less small ball.

    It's been really disappointing.

    The amount of wide open shots this guy passed up the last 2 games are ridiculous. Either he's not aggressive enough or just not confident to take the shots. Everytime he touches the ball on the offense, he's looking to pass. Opponents absolutely have not respect for him in the offensive end.

    Kuzma definitely needs to have more minutes over this guy.

    What..what’s he winning? In games the only thing he’s winning is most fumbled balls, or most shots passed up. Most games without a layup maybe.

    Larry is the odd man out to make space for Kuzma.

    He is a great guy and a great person but just not great at basketball and I don't feel like he has made enough progress considering this is his 3rd season.
