I guess we can play the game of how many times does Len touch the ball when he isn't at the top of the key.

Just straight up ignoring him in the post.

Was just going to post that - they're looking off of Len at every turn.

As I said in the Len thread, the kid's regressed to the point where it looks like he's never seen a basketball court in his life.

I remember that spin move he pulled when he came back from the injury. He traveled but it showed some skill and aggressiveness.

His confidence is gone. It is sad.

Man the last three games have been absolutely embarrassing for a team fighting to make the playoffs.

It is understandable to lose if you are missing your best two players, but everybody needs to play with absolute intensity on D and on the boards and stop taking questionable shots.

If you don't have your MVP and have to slow down the pace or take more time in half court sets, so be it, but don't use possessions like you are the Steve Nash led Suns, because that is not going to work even against the lowly Jazz, particularly if you are not stopping anyone on the other side of the court.

The overall talent level just isn't that high. We have a roster with guys who had to fight just to stay in the league. Theres no way a depending on Frye, Green, Tucker, Ish, an Co to win games will yield good results.

I was thinking about the parallels between Kanter and Len while watching the game. Iirc, Kanter was the 3rd pick in his draft? Yet you don't see people talking about him being a bust and he's come along very slowly. He's still only 21 so very young, but in his first full year starting he's only putting up 12 & 6. He's got a long way to go. I think you can expect a similar path with Len.
Go Suns!
