He rushes his shots when he does get them. He goes up soft a lot in the lane. We see flashes of interesting things like that reverse layup from the wrong side of the backboard, but those are few and far between lately. At least he rebounds a bit.
I think there's been a noticeable drop-off in his lift since the original ankle injury. That's affecting all aspects of his game, particularly his rim protection.
Good observation.

Yeah, I doubt his ankle has been 100% since that injury. That is not good for a guy that is supposed to keep jumping in the lane and likely coming down after the other guy. You can't stop thinking about it.

i can't stop comparing him to noel. i love len and still think that he is a major piece to our future, but i still can't help but think what if... i know that it's not fair and if noel were on the suns he might also not perform this well because of a lack of minutes/opportunities. so i'll keep hoping for the best with len.

I'll take Len over Noel. Noel isn't a true center. But Gobert? That's the comparison that tortures me. Alex might get there, but Rudy's already there.

yeah gobert would've been nice... but he's so far down the draft that i think nobody thought we should be taking him at #5... but noel was right there. even if he's a pf, i still like his defensive potential. but of course, i'd love to have gobert too. or nurkic...
