Goodbye Larry Nance Jr.

[BigZ94]

Anybody else see him bump Belein while walking to the bench during a timeout around the 2 minute mark of the first? Also didn’t play many minutes, wouldn’t surprise me if he’s one of the guys bitching to the media.

He and Clarkson are 100% two of the ones bitching. Who the 3rd is continues to be the real question.

Junior hasn't earned the right to bitch or bump into anybody. His value isn't as high as he thinks it is.

Let Zizic play and keep Nance's rear end on the bench if he's becoming a problem for the coach.

I thought he deserved more minutes last night. He was great and got some crucial rebounds. I also thought Cedi and Porter should have been on the court together more. Cedi seemed to have a quiet game, but he had 7 assists in 19 min. He was also very good defensively.

Honestly if Nance had been in there late instead of Love, I think we win that game.

Such a revelation with his recent good plays. Active and can switch on defense 1-5. Him and TT are great off the bench players. Would love to see him take Osman's spot eventually in the starting lineup. His 3pt shot also looks very good, need to take and make more of those moving forward.

 

[Cavatt]

He did everything

Nance has improved a lot this season. He is not just an energy big. Improving his shot, defense and help defense has been great. Before it was tough to even have Nance and TT on the floor at the same time. I also liked when he got into Dragic and that got him the T.

 

[Cavatt]

He abused Robinson and it seemed to affect him a lot on offense

 

[cabs]

He is playing out of his skin recently.
Sometimes I wonder why he doesn't go for more contested dunks, today he had an open runway and could have just taken off and dunked on Love and his opponent but stopped and I think turned it over. Don't be afraid to dunk on a teammate..

How Larry Nance Jr. emerged from a dark place and turned his season around: ‘We’re seeing the player I came in expecting to be’

Since returning from that one-week sabbatical in mid-January, Nance is averaging 13.9 points on 59.5% shooting and 41.2% from beyond the arc to go with 8.4 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 27.4 minutes.

He's been really good. A glue guy who is also putting up stats. He needs to be commended for his rebounding. He was weak there in previous years, and he has really stepped it up. The shooting confidence is just such a breath of fresh air.

He's continued to improve to make the contract worth it. He's been good at the 3, and is pretty different from most 3's. I'd honestly like to see him guard some of the better wings like Giannis or Kawhi. He doesn't give up much in footspeed, and he has a wingspan that is great.

That lineup is with him TT and love is great defensively, but they just work together offensively so well, it is like a score every time down the floor.

Sort of a break out year for Nance.

Just slam on everyone and players will get out of his way.

He's been the biggest surprised on the team,especially his three-point shooting. I hope,he continues to improve for next season.

Next season, would love for Nance to take the starting SF spot regardless of who the cavs draft. Nance/Love/Drummond frontcourt will punish teams with rebounding and length and the cavs can play sexton and garland more. I feel he would be more productive than osman who should be relegated to the bench.
