I've been fairly anti-Len until the end of last season. I just don't expect him to take Gobert one on one. Gobert makes most guys look bad, and going right at Rudy seems like a bad idea for almost anybody. But I think Len has the tools to learn to be part of a team on either end of the court, and that the team plays well with him out there.

Again, I missed the first half. But the numbers don't lie. He's +11. Len.

Len: 15 Points, 7 Rebounds, 1 block. +6

Gobbert: 17 Points, 8 Rebounds, 2 blocks. +4

But eye roll. I'm an idiot. GTFO.

Len's last 3 havent been close and he's shooting every time he touches. Better to be doing it in preseason though

You admitted to not watching the first half. I then told you if you had seen it you would understand why there were so many negative Len comments. You then came back with a +/- number padded against guys that probably won't be in the league on opening day. The eye roll seemed appropriate. Shrug.

Fair enough.

Bender tries to pass to Williams in transition who had 2 guys on him. That can only end 1 way.

Bender plays a little too soft. Shoots too many 3's. Just threw a very weak half court pass. I'd definitely like to see him attack the rim a little more. Play more inside. Definitely work on his strength and frame.

Jones looks a lot better than Goodwin. I think we all know there's nothing more that Goodwin will add to his game.

Fantastic ally oop feed from Ulis on the break to Jones Jr. Very athletic. Got up there!

100 FT attempts. That isn't a made up stat. 100 FT's.

Ulis is a ferocious defender.

Suns down 3 with 40 seconds left after FT attempt 103.

Goodwin to the line to tie it with 12 seconds left.

Well at least Archie will have two good memories from his time in the NBA.

That dunk was sick.

CLANK. Then we get the offensive rebound and Goodwin flies to the hoop for a RIDICULOUS tomahawk dunk with 3 seconds left through traffic! Wow. That might be the play of the night in the NBA.

Jazz miss at the buzzer. Suns with the win.

Preseason games don;t mean much, but dammit, I'm glad they won anyway!

High fives and orange slices for everybody!

Watch that replay several times and pay attention to various members of the bench, including staff. Entertaining.

The gelatin ones covered in sugar right?
