Goodbye Larry Nance Jr.

[Lets_Nance]

Is there any way we can un-retire the 22 jersey?

Would be so fucking cool to have both father and son wear the same jersey.

And yes, welcome back home, Larry.

He should wear his father's jersey just for the dunk contest. That would win him some style points.

Man there's gonna be some absolutely filthy Bron->Nance sequences....

Bron has to stay at least thru next year because 29game+1 playoff run isn't nearly enough to satisfy my alley-oop cravings

#Cavs GM Koby Altman on Larry Nance Jr: "How cool is it for him to come home? The kid was in borderline tears when I talked to him today."

 

[Simmy]

The first time he dunks on someone with his old man sitting courtside is going to be truly special. The Q will explode.

I can't tell you how badly I've wanted Nance on this team since the day he was drafted. I literally thought that would never have any chance of happening.

And yet here we are. This is going to be bad-ass.

EDIT: I had the same affinity for Korver before we got him, too. It's actually pretty awesome when guys you've longed to join your team, do.

Really excited about this pickup. Should be a tremendous addition for the team.

I saw this in another thread, but I think it deserves to be posted in this one too. Enjoy!

Had no idea he was such a good defensive player

Dude needs to be starting c

 

[RuanuLaw]

Any “realistic” chance he starts at C besides TT getting hurt?

 

[ice cream man]

I have a feeling since he actually gets offensive rebounds on a consistent basis, and he can throw down, we’ll prefer him to TT.

Can’t bang with big centers like TT can, but other than that, a great fit for us offensively at the 5. I’m happy for him.

 

[Return of the King]

I don’t care if he starts, just want him to play more mins than TT

 

[Benedict_Boozer]

Any “realistic” chance he starts at C besides TT getting hurt?

With T Lue? Not a chance.

But he should get plenty of run, especially with Love out he will get a chance to shine and his energy will keep him on the floor. Lue doesn’t hesitate to ride guys in game who are producing.

Really excited about this pickup. Should be a tremendous addition for the team.

Really excited about you posting, period.

I think Nance jr is my most favorite addition today with Hood being second.

1. I really hope he gets payday to stay in Cleveland for many more years to come (they HAVE to re-sign him... right?)

2. I hope we get a Larry Nance jr. Bobblehead on one of the two bobblehead giveaways this year!

 

[Tressel33]

Nance does jump out of the gym. Totally different player from TT. If only TT could jump like Nance. As someone stated in a earlier post, you won't see Nance get stuffed by the rim like TT does so many times during the season. Larry will be out an running with Lebron. The oops that Lebron and Larry could do. Wow!!!

Yes, this is how I feel as well. I like Clarkson and Hill, but Nance and Hood are the ones I'm really excited about. Lebron isn't going anywhere

Hopefully his dad shows him how to put the ball in the bucket more like he did
