I know I'm making a somewhat knee-jerk reaction post, but I've officially grown tired of the Ryan Anderson era

He's just not good enough to justify certain holes in his game, no matter how much I like him


+1

Ryno is the perfect anti-partner for AD on the defensive end. It clearly fricking kills the team late in close games unless Ryno is on fire shooting, which ain't nearly often enough.

Our guards are shoot first and to hell with moving the ball around.

I agree that he should be taken out when he isn't shooting well, but that's on Monty to recognize that.


He's getting too much hate though.

We have two average at best SF. Pondexter and Cunningham are not playoff team starting 3.

He doesn't suck. Saying that is foolish.


Yea, he's not good defensively, but he's one of the only legit shooters the team has. He opens the court up for everyone else.


Voice of reason.

His defense wasn't even that bad down the stretch. It was silly to keep him in when Denver subbed in Nurkic, but I can't get upset that Lawson scored on him. Lawson does that to everyone.

The bigger problem is the Pelicans couldn't find a good shot with a stretch 4 and Davis on the court. That's just terrible offense. Bad coaching, bad executing.

Avery Johnson on ESPN, calling himself Coach Avery. He's priming up for that Pelijob.

Well, if we're supposed to be copying the Spurs, let's have an ex-Spur as coach who actually was a really good player?

I know that doesn't matter. I just want not-Monty as HC now.

They are defensive minded. They hustle. They give us energy.

It's when our scorers are on th bench is when we struggle. Ryan is our only source of offense for the 2nd unit and he been struggling. We need consistency scoring off the bench.

Plus Ryan can't play on the floor with our defensive team. He's gotta go.

Corn why do we start so damn slow?

Is it coaching or execution? Digging out of 16 point holes isn't a good recipe.

If we could get a shooting wing and move dante to back up PF,that'd be ideal imo.

I think we start slow because the guards do not distribute the ball. EG was 0/7 in the 1st qtr alone.
Denver had 30 assists we had half as many

Well they have before tonight

I mean shite EG is averaging 5+ assists since he came back.

Not having a decent back up hurts too
