    Our PF position is looking so rich right now. Between Randle and Nance we have it covered for days and they each bring their own strengths and skill sets to the table. It's our best position. Plus we have T Rob if we need him as well.

    Larry kind of reminds me of Udonis Haslem a bit. Haslem played 4 years in college like Larry did. The Miami coaches always liked Haslem because he was a "glue guy" who did all the little things you need to do to win that don't show up in the stat sheet. Things most players who are "one and done" don't learn because they leave college too early. I wouldn't be surprised if Riley tries to snatch him from us when his contract comes up.

    Nahhhhh. Larry will be a Udonis type doe that would probs take less to stay here with his buddies. We got a lil something special brewing, and Larry is definitely the 6th man candidate type scrapper you gotta keep. Crowd favorite, brings so much, he's staying ;)

    Larry is our small ball center, as I said in the Julius thread.

    He does everything on the court and he covers a lot areas Julius is not known to do. When Julius was out on Schroder on the switch, Larry was battling low with Dwight and secured the block.

    It's little things like that they allows Larry to complement each any lineup he's in.

    AC Green was unhurtable. Nance certainly is not made out of iron like AC was.

    I said it before and I'll say it again, Larry Nance is that special x-factor guy that fills you with hope. Remember that Ariza dunk against the Suns on Xmas (honestly, who doesn't)? Larry Nance gives me those same kinda good vibes. He's humble, always hustling, and does all the thankless dirty work. Awesome.

    Thinking of his old man...Nance to Tower, Nance to Tower! The son has it too. Did not give up on the ball on that chance tip-in.

    If only we can play him the entire game, the dude just does everything out there and does it right.

    He hustles, huge highlight dunks, defense, some great interior passing, doesn't complain.

    Great moment was after a play where KD backed Ingram 10 feet into the paint, he went over to Ingram and switched defensive assignments.

    Just heard the music .... :SadPau2: ..... not sure about that. Has to be something better. LOVE all the angles though and the expression up close on his face still at the other end knowing he had just been a very bad man.
