It's terrible, he falls down half way and always seems to want to go horizontal with the move, not the smartest..
I am not sure anymore if he can make a normal 3 pt shot. It seems he always has to be at least several feet behind the line to make it work. Also it seems it doesn't make the difference whether he's open or not. I wonder whether this perplexing nature of his played a part in his ex gf doing what she did. Whatever I like having him on the team and I am surprised how well he held his own on D in 2 games vs spurs.
While he doesn't have a post game, nor a jump hook, he does seem like someone who could adapt his current move into Olajuwon's version of the fadeaway and excel at it as opposed to the low flying dirk move he has now. He's strong enough shooting wise where he could take advantage of the horizontal separation.
Let's set the scene here - Ryan Anderson is basically on an island out on the wing with Kawhi guarding him. Somehow, he gets Kawhi off his feet and drives right. Kawhi is trying to catch up with him on the left while Aldridge is coming over to help. Instead of continuing on the path of the clear lane to the basket, he decides to spin into both of them, turning the ball over. The end.
But he does it after every made shot? Regardless of the reason why, that seems excessive. That can be a problem, when getting back on D. James has done that too..
Wow, just noticed this. WTF does his ex gf committing suicide have anything to do with his basketball ability? Incredibly classless thing to say.
I always thought he's thinking God that he made the shot lol. I have no idea what his religion is but where I come from a lot of players point their fingers up to the sky or make a sign to the cross after the made shot. Almost all of Andersons shots come from the 3 pt line anyone and presumably he's looking at the ball so it shouldn't be an issue getting back on D. But considering Anderson's building a road of bricks to the great city of Oz right now I don't think we need to worry about his finger pointing...
