    some guys are just not built for the postseason and it's looking like he might be one of them.

    Time for him to go in the offseason. $18 million is too much for a spot-up shooter who bricks wide open shots in big games. The league is littered with one-dimensional players who can shoot 3-pointers while making a fraction of what he makes.

    We should let the ball boy take Ryan's minutes. He would at least not commit stupid fouls while not making any shots

    Please get back soon, Dekker. Even you can't shoot as poorly as Anderson.

    He's gonna get a reprieve. If he plays well against the Spurs this will be forgotten.

    But boy was he dog s**t in this series.

    Well if we could do with the Osweiler maybe we can do it with him too!

    Spurs would scheme it difficult for Ryan I'd imagine. He's lost confidence, and being open is not even a factor anymore

    We got lucky we were only playing the Thunder. At this point in the playoffs, potentially going up against ONLY elite teams in San Antonio, GSW (hopefully), and Cleveland (hopefully x2), we need ALL of our weapons. The law of averages is in our favor and hopefully he'll make a comeback, but if he doesn't, it'll be tough.

    Statistically you'd think he would have to bounce back. He shot 40.3% on 7 attempts per game this year!

    Cmon Ryno wake the **** up for the Spurs man!

    Ryan Anderson (and Trevor Ariza) shot poorly this series, but it doesn't mean that he was completely useless. OKC really focused on shutting off the 3 point shots, but the spacing led to Houston getting more shots at the rim and FTs and actually having a decently efficient offense-- enough to win the series 4-1.

    Lol. I was thinking more Millsap but Jones is the next best thing ;)

    If only we would have spent our first rounder at the trade deadline to get Rubio and get the ball out of the hands of Pistol Pete Harden.

    Who needs Lou Williams when you got Rubio?

    Agreed. Also, he must be an awesome mascot in the locker room!

    He was horrible this series. But you can't discredit what he did for us in the regular season. He was a big part of our offense and we played really well most of the year to get this positioning with 3rd seed.

    Obviously, if we were to improve our team next year, you'd look at upgrading from Ryno and Ariza, but then you got to ask yourself, how many players are we actually able to acquire that actually would be an upgrade over either. Millsap is the only one at PF that we may have a slight shot at getting but he'll get near max or max. Not many SF that we can get that would do better than Ariza either.
