we are missing 3 of our best players, playing with unproven guys, and playing well.
it's nice knowing that when our main guys get healthy, we will have the bench that we've been lacking the first half of the season.

upvote for optimism that we grab that 7/8 seed and downvote if you think we still miss out.

I would say we missing 2 of our best players with AD and Jrue.

We are missing on ball defense (Jrue)

We are missing rebounds and limiting other teams 2nd chance points (AD)

If this team can rattle off a few more wins here in their next few games, the blender will be rocking Friday and Saturday

No body in the NBA is a bad player, but he plays way to many minutes and people like you and to my surprise alot of fans like him think he deserves +30 minutes. So hopefully he can get us some value in return with a trade.

Allow Cole, Babbit, Cunningham, Pondexter, Asik & Ajinca some more minutes that they deserved

well i didnt say we are missing our best 3 players. i said 3 of our best players.
anderson is without a doubt, regardless what anybody says, one of our best players. he's struggled lately but is still next to davis, jrue, EG, tyreke on our team as far as top players go.

but goddamn am i nervous about getting jrue and davis back and us not playing as well as we are right now. obviously on paper that doesnt make sense, but the guys we have going right now have a weirdly good chemistry

Clearly you are wiser than most of us delusional, ill-informed fans, but would you feel better about Anderson being on the roster if his minutes were limited? By the way, I think most of us do, in fact, recognize his limitations.

You can't honestly look at Ryno's home splits and say that he's hurt the team in home games. I think we can all agree that he's been atrocious on the road.

Pels now have the longest win streak in the NBA (tied with Houston). Both Chandlers are iffy to play tomorrow. I PELIEVE!

Thank you


But to answer your question Monty will never give him less than 25 minutes a game where I think he worth maybe 20 a game

If Monty does limit his minutes that be awesome and I think I will like Anderson alot more, however it will never happen. But if it does happen, why not trade him instead since so many think Anderson should be getting starter minutes

First, I'm not so sure that's true after watching this streak. Monty's stubborn, but he's not totally clueless.

Not so sure that's correct. Admittedly, I haven't taken a poll. But this issue seems to be like a chew toy for a puppy to you.

My goal is to make it so obvious that I think Anderson hurts the team alot more than helps the team.

Ive been doing the same thing about Drew Brees killing the saints when he signed his contract, at first I was called every negative word and phrase in the book.

Back to Anderson, I hope Anderson sits out the whole year so I can throw stats to prove we dont need him

I do realize since he has been out we have scored 100 points ever since, Lets pretend Asik made the late 4th quarter free throw tonight, and thats with no AD who only is top 10 in PPG for the league

To be fair. Our guys are doing their job taking out the trash. We will need the Davis/Jrue combo when we get back to playing the Western mid-upper tier.

Anderson has been so inconsistent this year it's better if he just comes back next year at a hundred percent

This is the stupidest fricking logic I've ever seen.

Now respond to my post about Anderson's home splits.
