    Been beating the drum for YEARS now that Bismack a) wasn't done. b) was better than the Wood signing.

    The fact that it came down between the two and we didn't reconsider him when we had the opening was a mistake.

    We signed Len for matchups like the Denver one. He only saw 3 minutes and that was strictly garbage time.

    Well we let him prove himself, so now we can sign him for the rest of the season.

    Why are you here?

    We played two of the teams that justify his existence on this team in Denver and Clippers. He saw 0 minutes against Joker or Zu.

    Jemison > Len

    The discrimination at every turn must be very challenging for Len.

    Keep pumping weights big man. Your time is coming to lay some fools out and use 6 fouls.

    Another feather in JJ’s hat compared to how LONG we all know it would have taken Pimple to figure out and games lost before abandoning it …. that NBA journeyman Len at present doesn’t deserve to play …. or help the team more than Jemison.

    Why do you exist?

    He had a couple tap outs in the first Q and some decent reads/passing out of the post. Everything else was atrocious.

    Pacers better send us a cheese of the month subscription from saving them from this atrocity.

    Welp..considering this roster construction going into the summer. I think I'll have to agree with Abeer now, that Isiah Stewart might be a decent option.

    We could use a short tempered/borderline physcopath type big. Might deter folks from the incessantly hacking, on Lebron and Luka with impunity. That dude definitely makes people uncomfortable, I'll give him that.

    But damn at 15M per? A bit expensive for a body guard/enforcer tho. I wish he hit the boards a lot harder too.

    i think kleber and milton could get it done, contract-wise. stewart's a better version of jemison, imo.

    len will be retired in a couple months.

    One of the worst players we’ve seen wear a Lakers uniform and we’ve had some bad ones.

    Seemed like he kind of held his own, physically, but then not long after, i snap out of it…

    Dude has to be the most uncoordinated 7 footer this team has seen in a long time. Like zero skills, slow on his feet, can’t jump, can’t finish that dunk he had… like damn. Does he do any ONE thing well that we can look forward to?

    Objectively, he’s probably worse than a third string.

    Not only is he currently the worst starting center in the NBA. He's the worst center in the league playing 10+ minutes a night.

    We're a few games from me backspacing that "playing 10+ minutes a night."

    Can't rotate defensively, can't contest, can't rebound. Offensively he's scared to shoot, can't hit anything even 3 feet from the rim, doesn't screen well enough, can't catch, and makes every play 4 on 5 situation.

    He can pass decently and can wrestle a bit against another big (but that doesn't yield any positive result) That's the only nice things i have to say.

    Pull the plug and bury him next to Cam. I've seen enough.
