The Suns are 14 games into the season... The young guys will get more minutes as the season progresses. Goodwin's been getting more minutes consistently, since he barely got any at the beginning of the season. They're going to bring them along over the course of the season... Would be nice to see Len get some minutes, but why risk re-injuring his ankles? Just give him the time he needs to be 100%. Goodwin was getting completely destroyed tonight... there's a fine line between that being a lesson for him, and that completely shattering any confidence he has. He was playing most of, if not all, his minutes against Ray Allen, who has been a star in the league for a looooong time, and is LITERALLY twice Goodwin's age.
The Suns youth and inexperience showed in this game, not to mention coming on the back end of a b2b. Miami didn't play yesterday. Tucker isn't exactly old at 28, and can be a part of the future for the Suns for the next 5-6 years. He should get minutes until one of the young guys beats him out for them. You can't just hand young guys minutes, they should be earned. The minutes being played now are highly unlikely to be the same come all-star break...
Hence... the chill-pill. Take it.
