    I was more impressed with the 3. I didn't see that coming. Apparently he's working on the J.

    It's like the opposite position of Kelly. Kelly is known as a three point guy who suddenly started putting it on the floor to mix it up, and he's having success.

    If Nance is able to successfully add a three to his arsenal when he can put it on the floor and do *that*, he's going to be a very valuable role player.

    I compared him to Marion ithere Game Day chat, but I was told he doesn't have the skillet, and I think that's accurate.

    He reminds me of A. Gordon coming out of college, the I think the NBA scouts who said they seen a little D.Green in him could be right .

    I see him being able to guard 3 and 4 with his length and athleticism. Could be a serious injection of energy and momentum change off the bench. REALLY hope he continues to develop and takes advantage of working with both Worthy and Tracy Murray. That 3 was a nice surprise. No hesitation either.

    He disrupted Curry's dribble twice with his long arms.

    more than dunk, his quick hands impressed me, disrupting Curry's ballhandling and stealing the ball

    Starting to look more and more comfortable each game, I think I wrote him off too soon. He's a role player, he's limited, but he's starting to catch up to the speed of the game a bit.

    Is the three pointer part of his game? Seen it the last two games, if he can put that in his toolkit...noice.

    He shot 34% from the 3-point line in college. He looked more confident shooting it the last game and this game than I seen at anytime during the Summer League. Then, of course, you can't forget the pick in roll defense, rebounding, energy, he brings every night on the court. He's surprised me.

    Kid's a nice athlete! Should develop into a good player coming off the bench for us. Especially if he can knock down enough shots to keep them honest.

    He's playing better and with more confidence every game. I think he's a keeper.

    Nance has clearly worked on his jumper.

    He's got great role player potential.

    His shot looks a heck of a lot better. He's doing a lot less chicken winging and the shot looks a lot smoother.

    Did you think so? I hope you're right ..... seemed to me at least on one of them the left was still a long way off the ball too soon. But HEY .... knocking down some shorter ones too, plus the 2 3pt bombs in 2 games ..... plus this little thing below..... what's not to love?
