Pracis 68 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Umm... can someone check to see if there was some sort of magnetic anomaly that occured in the Earth's atmosphere? 5/10 FG, 11/12 FT (yes.. Free Throw), 13 Boards, 1 Ast, 2 Blks, 3 TO This can't be the same Alex Len that we've been waiting on.. could it? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No time for fool around if he wants Monroe bought out and Chandler traded. The time is NOW. He heard ya big time all right and told you to SIT. DOWN! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have a Lonzo Ball problem and Len totally rectified that. My Roto team is still at 78% from the FT line, but progress. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jjbooda 322 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 This is the type of game that indicates he needs minutes. He is better than Chandler by far and needs to get the bulk of the minutes whether starting or not. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
affliction 2,172 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 played 40 MINUTES wow just stay out of foul trouble Alex 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Apollo_87 407 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Big Alex Len fan - have him this year, and had him at times in the last couple of seasons too. But this screams outlier and could very well be his best game of the season. I want him to do well, but he’s just not consistent. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jake the snake 1,749 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 He is the Danny Green of the Front court. Flashes of brilliance followed by a bunch of duds. Expect him to get dropped and picked up about another 1000x this year. He has the physical tools, but I'm not sure he has the mental ones to really succeed and fully breakout (see Jonas Valanciunas) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tekno Team 2000 1,569 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I think at this point the Suns know what he is and are not interested in really developing him anymore. He just isn't that good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
L3onD 714 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 he has all the tools to become a good starting center, all he needs is minutes in the thirties...dude is 24, not like hes 28 and hes going nowhere, its all about confidence, you cant expect him to flourish everytime hes on the court when he gets 38mins in a game and in the next one he plays 22...sorry but at this point its all about confidence, everyone who has seen this dude over the years knows that he can perform when given the minutes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KuramaHiei 271 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 With a full day of games and suns against minnesota. Will he get into foul troubles matching up against KAT? I'm considering benching for Kieff. Looking at his games so far he has on and off games consistently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Those guys never make it to the top. You can't teach reactions and BBall IQ, its something people have or not. Len seems like another low BBall IQ guy. Good luck to you if you think otherwise but 4 years of making the same dumb mistakes isn't good data to work with (5.5 in JVs case). The reason guys like Gasol Bros and Bro Lo and even Vucevic have succeeded (with arguably less physical tools than either Len or JV) so well in this league is because they are such smart cerebral players than make great passes, learned to shoot because they saw how the league was evolving. Some guys just don't have the reactions or court smarts to do that... Edited November 11, 2017 by Jake the snake Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have you ever considered it’s Len’s lack of bball IQ that’s preventing him from getting more minutes? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
