re: Anderson the enigma

Amen. I was opposed to picking up Anderson from the beginning. We already had a good back-up PF in Landry and Ayon had good chemistry with Vasquez. So they traded away Ayon and let Landry walk. If you compare Anderson to Landry this year..

Anderson-
30.9 mpg, 16.2 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 1.2 apg, 18.2 PER

Landry-
23.2 mpg, 10.8 ppg, 6.0 rgp, .80 apg, 17.6 PER

Anderson makes 9m a year, Landry makes 4m. Did we really upgrade that much?

Comeon man. Landry had Curry/Jack/Thompson. Anderson had Vasquez/Rivers/Roberts/ 50% Gordon. At least find a player on a crappy team to compare him to, not one that's up 3-1 in the playoffs.

Anderson's % dipped because he was terrible late in the year. You could tell mentally that he was slumping and he needs to find a way to fight through those slumps. His form dipped dramatically too. He started pushing his shots, stopped following through, and was shooting flat footed. I'm hoping this isn't a trend with him.
