    You like 28% from 3 for a 1 dimensional open 3 pt shooter?

    What am saying is that he played descent the first 2 games, I didn't say I like him as a player and his percentage, no one wanted to take on his contract in the off-season, maybe when cp3 gets healthy and our unit start meshing together he'll start shooting better and stop being timid and gain more confidence in his shot...till then take a chill pill

    I really think Anderson are twins like in the prestige, they just live the same life. Road Anderson is the older twin and an nba superstar. Home Anderson is actually an accountant and would rather do calligraphy at home than hoop. Remember when Anderson cut his finger taking out trash? Only Home Anderson actually got cut because he is a clutz, but Road Anderson also had to injure himself to keep the illusion up.

    Let's not call 13 pts and 8 rbs superstar like but it's good stats for him. Prolly not enough if his salary is considered.

    James Harden looking nimble out there. You can tell he is in much better shape than previous years.

    Road Anderson's just holding himself back so the disparity between his twin doesn't seem too ridiculous. I mean you can already see its 2 diff people with him holding himself back, if he really played to the best of his abilities everybodu will see something is wrong.

    he may be overpaid, but i would still say he's worth 14-15 million a year. he stretches the floor and what he does, doesn't show up in the stats. other people like harden and gordon score instead. and though his defense is not good, he still has length and allows us to play small ball when the other teams center is not a threat to score inside. he's playing really well, being lighter and should be better on back to backs...

    I bet the Knicks love Kanter and Mcdermott. They could have had Ryno for Melo but nooooooooo...

    He's not worth 15M fam, his max worth is around 7M or the MLE. Look at Tucker if we had two Tuckers on the team would we even need Anderson?

    Before you say whether a guy is worth X amount or not you need to look at other options and how much those cost. There is no non Star level Stretch PF making even 15M a year, most are on MLE deals or even lower if you look at the contracts of guys like Patrick Patterson, Luc Mbah A Moute, Brandan Wright, Channing Frye etc. That's why Anderson's contract is so immoveable not because he sucks, but because he is so vastly overpaid compared to his peers.

    I've been very impressed with Anderson's defensive effort and getting dirty in the paint going after boards. Hope he can maintain the intensity throughout the season while keeping the stroke going. I'd like to take a peek at him at the 5 in small ball again. But just a peek with a quick pull if he even started getting beat defensively but with further examination if he held his own (even though I still seriously doubt he could).
