    That's what I am afraid for. He's already too creative with his lineups.

    hope he's alright, as he's had knee trouble before. I'm still really high on nance despite the dip in measurable production. he knows how to play and plays hard. he has size and athleticism. that's an nba rotation player.

    Right. Especially with Young now on the same s*** list Boron has Black on. Counting the weeks until Boron the Moron breaks Kobe for good way prior to the end of his last season.

    yeah, at least he started instead of bass or Kelly or some dude they spotted a grocery store last night. I thought his energy and iq was useful next to hibbert, even if it didn't show up on the scoreboard.

    Starter material? Hardly. It's not making any sense at all to me to bench Randle and start and end the game with Nance. ZERO sense.

    He's not starter material, but he was an excellent pick, and he's an NBA level rotation player. He's a great fit behind Randle, and I think he can play with Randle during certain stretches when teams go small.

    By the way, excellent game today, and some excellent defensive sequences...

    Yeah, no knock on Larry at all. He's been playing well for us, developing nicely, and I like his game. But he's not a starter. And he shouldn't be in at game's end either. It's stupid to bench Randle for playing well. Especially when he would've been matched up against Scola who he demolished last time they played each other.

    Totally agree. I love Randle. Randle is a cornerstone. No doubt.

    I can't believe his Dad named him Larry. Only kid in his class named Larry.

    I'm sorry LN Jr. You can now never be famous.

    So didn't watch the game. What was the defense like when Hibbert and Nance in?

    Everything about that play was great. Nance's airplane, Lou's look, and the dude's look at the end of the clip. Oh, and of course NOOOICE.

    What a great all-around play. Nance with the constant movement, the ball swinging around, Lou with the great pass, finished with that awesome dunk. That game/win might have to hold us for a while, I'm glad it featured many good performances.

    Larry might actually make a decent starting SF next to Randle. Just sayin'.
