    The winging is definitely better than it used to be, that's all I'm saying. Shooting form is still really funky.

    Wait. Crap, what else does he have with it that needs work? I thought the winging was pretty much it. Wrist and arm positions didn't jump out at me that looked like it was off .......like with a Jamaal Wilkes and a Shawn Marion (most hideous J ever imo) LOL.

    Nance looks to me like an honest 6'9" dude out there but he's listed at only 6' 7 1/2" in stocking feet and 6. 8 1/2" in shoes. Guess my eye tester needs a new battery.

    :p

    Apparently it was Randle who broke it.

    That sucks, hope it isn't too bad of a break, D-League is only a week or so away, right?

    Randle couldn't have broken Kelly's nose instead?

    Awww geeez that sucks. Who wants their nose broke. Not something you would hope for. I called it weeks ago, though, jokingly in Randle's thread and said I expected broken noses in his career. His own, opponents and /or both. Damn! I didn't even think about a teammate being in that same danger zone.

    Look at Rivers on Clips ..... yikes.... had like 5 teeth knocked hanging loose in his mouth from a teammate.

    I'd like for him to get some burn this roadtrip. I'd also like to get him spend some time in the D-League; so maybe a combination of both is what I'm thinking...I love his versatility.

    Like the energy Nancelot brought out there. Him and Metta brought it and it became contagious. Gives energy defensively and little offensively but we don't really need him to be a scorer.

    Holy crap that's right he has a busted beak and didn't even wear a mask. Surprised the staff let him do that. Even if it was a small break.

    He worked well with MWP and Black. Good move by Byron. Paid dividends tonight and I can see him getting more burn because of this.

    Ireland said Vitti tossed Dunkin' Do-Nance a mask, but Nance tossed it back before entering the game.
