I've been watching part of this game and he's been terrible thus far
I'm putting him on the trade block. You can have him for just about anything. I'll take a 2nd round draft pick if you want.
Get him the out of Phoenix. A starting center who can't score and can't guard traditional centers![]()

The Suns were putting together a run to tie the game and Plumlee single-handedly said "Nah" and gave Brook Lopez like 3 straight and-1's.
He started off strong but regressed as the season wore on.
Probably just not happy with his situation..I was told bledsoe is such a diva and now you have thomas..
hard to play motivated basketball when you're playing with players like that, but I don't really know though.......
I mean last year he regressed and it's carried into this season. Plumlee can't possibly he upset about his situation, he's been given a starting spot that he doesn't deserve. He might be the worst starting center in the league.
Ya - Suns FC is in shambles and the FO needs some blame. Difficult to call Len a bust, but he does not look promising.
If the lack of bigs continues to cause major problems, I wouldn't be surprised if the Suns are active at the trade deadline.
The three games we've lost--Memphis, Sacramento, and Utah--were all due to opposing bigs going HAM on our frontcourt.
It sucked last year too and relying on the Morris Twins and Gerald Green to keep it up to offset guys like Len/Plum is really, really tough. IT3 has been worth his contract with regards to production, but if they can secure a legit big man they should be open to it.
I know you've talked a lot about the guard situation, but I think that whole thing will work itself out. Dragic, Bledsoe, and IT are all too talented to just sink. They just need time to adjust to their roles.
The frontcourt, though...it's a fatal flaw that teams with good FCs can exploit night in and night out. If we somehow make it to the playoffs, we're just gonna get destroyed in the paint by Dwight/Blake/M.Gasol/ZBo/etc.
I agree the backcourt is fine and should improve with good coaching and utilizing people the right way. I was just saying if it comes down to getting a legit C/PF they shouldn't be afraid to part with IT.
I rarely watch the suns play so I'll take your word..
I love Anthony Davis but outside of him this is the rank and file of your young C talent in the NBA. You might not like him but beware his replacement.
Suns team as a whole has regressed. It's early. Weird saying it, but they really miss Channing Frye.
we will give you daye and ayers for miles and goodwin
he's fine, you guys are spending most of your money for guards, so you can't complain about a cheap center rotation. You need to draft someone for the sf spot with the lakers pick (this or next year), the rest is just developing your players year in and year out without losing them to max contracts offers..
Dragič+Green have great chemistry together with Dragič as a main ballhandler.
It worked great last year, it works great this year. When Bled is on the court... he somehow disturbs this chemistry with overdribling and turnovers...
I would be OK with Suns parting with either Bled or IT (who are both very talented) for a quality 4 or 5. Tolliver is terrible and Plumlee not far behind if he isn't spoon fed by the guards for open Dunks.
It would be great to keep all these guards but to get a quality big someone has to go - unfortunately.
Suns don't need no bigs imho. they could start >Lee at C and still curbstomp the league in the regular season. Plumlee can't run nor shoot 3's no wonder he's struggling to perform in the Suns system tbh.
Miles Plumlee: 19 minutes, 0 pts, 1 reb
Alex Len: 29 minutes, 19 pts, 7 reb

I thought this was the same guy that Coack K had brought along to be the ball boy for Team USA until I looked him up.
Seriously what is up with Suns signing the re ed siblings of decent/good players? Its getting kind of weird tbh.![]()
We've gotten into the habit recently of just signing both brothers just in case.
