I didn't watch last game so I just went along w all the criticism of Alex len, but I just realized he had

7 reb 2 assist 4 pts in 22mins
In his first game

Which is to be expected for a serviceable center who just got off of an airplane where he lived on at least for the last few days,
playing with doncic and Bron for the first time,
and I'm sure coaching just told him to go out there, don't worry, and just get a feel for it as it was the last game before the long break.

Perhaps the eye test didn't pass as the few plays I saw of him he looked confused but that is to be expected .... but those numbers are respectable I think.

Thought he had 0 points 1 rebound in 20 mins the way everyone was criticizing him.

He's terrible. During the game against the Pels, he was camped at the corner 3 asking for the ball :lol: With that size, he should be dominating the paint, but instead, he wants to be a 3pt shooter. lol

This is puzzling. This guy Len. sucks Balls. And yes, connect is a player. But I am not comfortable at all goin into the dance with 1 guy. This 1 guy gets into foul trouble, we are absolutely Dead. Williams ain't the best center. And when last I checked, dude is still playin. We've seen dominant before, we've had Shaq. But len and this other guy, Mr. Foul machine himself as backups really spells disaster for us in key moments when pace slows down in the playoffs

I feel for the guy if the FO does waive him.
He wanted to sign with Indiana, and then he excitedly changed his mind and flew over here to sign when Pelinka called him. Hoping for a starting role perhaps.

Only to be waived and no where to go.

I say keep him, and waive Keebler cookies and Milt Shake to sign Jemison and Goodwin.

It's a shame if he gets waived, but if Trey Jemison has better impact than you, then it's kind of deserved. I feel sorry for him, but he seems to have really deteriorated in the past 2-3 years. He is nowhere near the useful guy what I've read in the Kings' player reports.
