    Missing shots is something that the team and fans can live with (most of us, lol). What cannot happen is when a sharp shooter like him is passing up shots. Anderson needs to regain his mojo.

    Ryan Anderson (last night)
    2 pts 2 rebs
    That's 9M per pt last night

    It's amazing what happens when you cherry pick stats,where were you the last game when he had 16 pts and 12 rebs? He only took 3 shots that night, what do you expect?

    Btw Bazemore 3-12, Millsap 8-19, Hardaway 6-18, Ilyasova 1-6 but again it's Dwight's fault the Hawks lost. WTF only haters like you can look at that game and say it's Dwight's fault.

    "Cherry picking stats"?

    You post what he did in gm 4 and the reason why you did is because he didn't do JACK $HIT in games 1,2, 3 & now gm 5 from last night.

    So I ask you who's "cherry picking stats"?

    Also this isn't a Ryan Anderson thread. He's being bashed on his own thread.

    Jackshit? Getting a playoff average of 7.8 pts and 11 rebs in 28 mins of play is jackshit now? If he played 38 mins at that rate he'd get 14 and 11! Dwight's pt is short because of his health but if he was able to play normal star minutes he would have gotten good numbers per game.

    Even in the game 5 that you are laughing about he still got 10 rebs 5 pts, certainly better stats than Bazemore or Ilyasova or his other teammatss who were bricking it out there.

    LOL u are just a hater who wants to scapgoat Dwight no matter what. He is far from the worst player on that team and if they had players who could actually hit their shots and provide spacing for him his numbers would be better.

    If you hate Dwight then be man enough to just come out and say you hate Dwight. Don't lie and misrepresent the truth by saying dumb **** that isn't true. Its the same thing the media does with James Harden, they don't like him for some reason so they come up with all sorts of nonsensical reasons to give other people the MVP: last year Curry got it because his team was better even if Harden had better stats, now Westbrick got it because he had a triple double even if Harden was just 2 rebs less to a triple double and his team is way better. Its the same thing here, any cursory analysis of the Hawks will show Bazemore and his brick brothers are the issue in Atlanta rather than Dwight. Ilyasova 1-8, Bazemore 3-12 yet Dwight is the culprit in Game 5? Get outta here :rolleyes:

    "If he was able to play star minutes"?

    The reason he doesn't get "star" minutes is due to the fact that he ISN'T A STAR!!!!!

    He's paid like one however.

    Its due to his health. Dwight's not a star? He only reached Finals, ECF and WCf but ok whatever floats your boat, hater. Why don't u also blame Dwight for global warming, tuna shortage and the polar ice caps melting? I'm pretty sure he had something to do with it too :rolleyes:

    I'm not blaming Dwight for anything. He "reached the finals"? That was like EIGHT yrs ago!! Paul Pierce reached the finals as well (and won but so what).

    Dwight "was" a star end of story. He's still being paid like one however.

    No, it isn't.

    It's due to him being a hindrance to his team.

    How many times throughout this season has he been riding the pine during crunch time?

    By your logic Pau Gasol is a superstar compared to Dwight.

    No one is talking about this series?

    John Wall is starting to become my favorite non-Rockets player. He plays so controlled.

    Hawks finished the quarter doing the same things the Raptors did when blowing their 25-point lead yesterday. Can't even get off shot attempts half the time.

    Also, poor Paul Millsap. Can't ever get over LeBron-led teams, and that once-dominant group of Horford/Teague/Millsap/Korver is non-existent.

    And he's also stuck in ATL for another year.

    I noticed that too. Dwight is a useless, old fossil.

    Yep, he actually hurts them, 100% on offense, probably also on defense...Hawks down 4 now, i lost the count but they should be on a 21-6 run since Dwight went out

    Wall definitely stepped up his game this season, didn't expect it tbh...also, he's a bit too cocky out there for my taste, but it also means he has more confidence so it's good for him and Washington i guess.

    Dwight keeps trying to post up, and it's painfully obvious that Schroeder does not want to throw it to him. Millsap is the one that needs to be posting all the time.

    I think he's just trying to hype himself up while trying to "control" the crowd, at the same time.
