    I think boone and Swilliams will get their opportunites. Frank's mentality is run the same play until the defense adapts. Then they will have to run a different play. So the Pick and roll with Boone and Swilliams may come into play here. Also they have to give Lopez and Yi touches in the post. Hopefully. Who knows with Frank. If he doesnt, these Boone will continue to Rebound and Swilliams will continue to block shots.

    thus far ryan has continued to humiliate doubters of his game...i hope it continues...at least we know he is a competitor and has the right attitude to continue to improve...stromile swift had vc-like natural gifts but what happened to him?

    Ryan Anderson is already a better NBA player than Scott Padgett. That is a ridiculous comparison.

    The white player you have selected for comparison does not meet the minimum white player similarity requirements.

    Please consult the White Player Comparison Database and try again.

    The pick and roll is also one of the hardest to execute. You have to practice with your pick-and-roll partner hundreds of times to get the positioning and timing right. It also involves a skilled bigman and a smart playmaker you can decide when the pick and roll is good or is a blown one. That is why Stockton and Malone are the only ones to perfect it.

    This new system however looks so simple it can be run by high schoolers to perfection so much unlike Frank's complicated Princeton offense hybrid where a play can branch out to multiple sub-plays depending on the situation which is why the Nets execute ever so slowly and tentatively and often results in a blown play and a VC iso.

    I dont think he will be as good as KVH, but the I definitely think he is going to be better then Padgett.

    To avoid getting fined by the White Player Comparison Committee (lol), I was even going to suggest a Pre Nets Rodney Rogers type of player.

    I can't sit here and accurately predict what sort of player Ryan will be and eventually become, but I suspect that he will surprise a lot of people. He can shoot like the 2006-07 version of Boki Nachbar, but also has the instincts to be a decent rebounder. I will say this, though: He'll be more than the 21st-best rookie (or whenever it was that he was selected), even including Oden.

    I like the question mark inside my brain. That's the way it seems to me most days, anyway. However, stacking my kids and driving a stake through them has some appeal.
