    He's not my first choice, either.

    But if you're sick of seeing the ball swing around the 3pt line to Mo or Aminu and the shot taken by those two, Anderson won't disappoint.

    I totally agree with you!
    But of all the proposed garbage trades where we trade Hark for Anderson, I'd rather the Ariza/Gordon trade occur. But I don't want to get involved in ANY of the rumored NYK/HOU trades.

    MmmmmmmmmmmmWRONG. Three points - Anderson scored THREE POINTS more per game, on 2.5 more shots. He has a worse 3P%, worse 2P%, worse eFG%.

    You're looking at his worst season.

    Anderson has averaged 16 PPG and 17 PPG in 30 minutes in a season, 81 games and 66 games. That would be 6/7 points more per game.

    He's also scored near 20 PPG (19.8) in 36 M

    Seems to me, based on the baseless speculation in the tweets that are floating around, that Houston and NYK, and Melo, really want to get something done. Ergo: Olshey has them over a barrel. One or both of those teams need to make some moves to get Olshey what he wants, or they can suck it. Or go play with someone else.

    :cheers:

    Agree! In Olshey I trust. But they would also be helping us out by taking our bad contracts/Meyers. :cheers:

    We don't have any contracts that are as bad as Anderson's. Meyers at $10M is not that bad of a contract, even if he never plays a single minute. Turner, while not great, isn't awful. And Crabbe - our worst contract - is still young and one of the best shooters in the league.

    We don't? That's weird because I'm pretty sure Golden State dared about six of our guys to shoot.

    Vonleh.
    Back-ups: Collins, Davis, Swanigan, Aminu

    That's 5 guys at that position. Versus two guys at SG:

    CJ
    Back-ups: Crabbe

    It's not weird and you're not making sense. You cannot match GSW's firepower. You get defensive players for that. Who the FUCK is Anderson gonna guard? Not one person on that team.

    RA will be just fine on this team. He has a skill we sorely lacked last year from his position. (Nurk will cover for him at the rim defensively)

    Vonleh hopefully will make a big step this season, if not we have a few youngins waiting for their opportunity.

    I would hate to lose hark, but if we can get some picks in the deal we can salvage this off season. I just don't want a panic move just to make a move. Patience is the key when teams are scrambling to beat the W'S. Because we can't...yet.

    Paul George isn't a lock to go to HCP'S team. We need to put ourselves in a position to at least take a shot at him in free agency next year.

    I like what I have seen from Swanigan so far and see no reason to bring in Anderson.

    Nurk covering for him = Nurk getting into foul trouble more often.
