Archie Goodwin released 

Post#1 » by 8on » Mon Oct 24, 2016 7:54 pm

My least favorite Suns player. There seemed to be a notion that he wasn't working hard from cryptic tweets from other players. He had potential, but he'll need another opportunity to get minutes. Not broken up about it. It gets me thinking about Len's future more.

Just not enough playing time for him. Hopefully he has better luck with his next team.

This was a long time coming. I figured since he survived the last 3 years without getting waived that he was going to stick with us. Guess I was wrong. Hopefully a team picks him up and better utilizes him. Heat could try to turn him into Wade 2.0

Since he has now got shown the door, maybe he gets the message, but i definitely would not put money on that, maybe the talent was already tapped .

I am pretty surprised this happened, but hopefully Goodwin will sign with a team and get a chance to prove himself.

This ups my belief that the suns will do what is the best for this team with Len.

They did not get sticky with "has potential". If it would happen so with Len i hope they are ready to move on if the price is set too high.

So not really (trade him) in most cases.

I guess Jenkins and Derrick Jones Jr?

But there are a lot of other good players out there we could pick up.

Looks like it really surprised some people though.
