    He's likely going to put up great numbers for them because hes going to be through into the mix day 1, which I'm not sure would have happened if he was drafted by us.

    Nance isn't white, he's mixed. Here's Dad

    No fear, there is still Free Agency. I'm sure we'll make some solid decisions on backup whities

    Former slam dunk champion, 6'10", and apparently a solid and consistent career. We could have done worse for sure.

    Gotcha. A friend of mine told me it was a 'legacy pick.' He informed me to watch the old Larry Nance-Dr J dunk contest. I do watch old footage, but it's usually of our old Lakers teams, or the Bird's, Magic's, Isaiah's, etc...

    Nance Sr was quite a player for the Suns. Great defensively, blocked a ton of shots, played way above the rim. Not a very good shooter but didn't force shots out of his range. If his Son is like him the Lakers stole this draft.

    I remember when Nance Sr. won the slam dunk contest. Nance was a sick dunker.

    Jerry West wanted to draft Nance, Sr. but was dissuaded by the coach Jerry replaced with Riley. Imagine Nance with Magic! Now, we can, with Nance, Jr. and DAR. A son can make his father's dream become a reality. And I am not talking about Nance, Jr.

    Sure, is there something wrong with that? At least he didn't 'drop' his uniform down on the table. :rofl::rofl::rofl:

    I saw a guy get hit in the ear with a basketball. It tore through his lobe and ripped out of his ear. That was one time in all the time I've seen people workout with an earring in.

    Yeah, my post was just being facetious. I would guess he doesn't workout with his earrings on..
