We pay him to have games like against GSW. As long as he shows up hot when it counts, I don't mind him having a few bad games. Also, just by him spacing the floor and being that outside threat is worth money because it allows for Harden, Gordon, Ariza, etc. to drive, dish, or shoot much more efffectively
you try to make the most noise by far. that's why you get singled out. don't like it? then calm down with the irrelevant posts thinking you have his scouting report down to a T. egg in my face? not really. the rockets are doing great right now actually Alot of posters? nope doesn't look like it. especially with any credibility for that matter. You've posted some good stuff in the past but as of late not so much.
The rockets are a different entity from Ryan Anderson, see this is where the hyperbole comes in you act like Anderson is like the physical manifestation of the Rockets, whenever the team does well it's because of Ryan ****ing Anderson in your eyes. If you are gonna rank the people responsible for the Rox winning record you would probably put Anderson above Harden LMAO since you always equate the Rox great performance this season to him. He was 0-6 on 3 pts tonight, if it weren't for a Horford blown layup (something that happens like maybe 1/30 times) we would've lost the game and I hold Anderson directly responsible for that because he played 30 mins and didn't do anything, even MDA realized it and benched him for Sam Dekker at the end of the game. Your posts are some of the most condescending and egotistic I've seen in this forum, just because people don't agree with you they are irrelevant? They are dumb? They don't have credibility? Why are you even posting here then? Just go talk to yourself then since apparently all you want to interact with are posters who agree 100% with you. What are your goals for this team? Do you want the team to win a championship, or are you just happy with the 4rth seed? Well they can't be a contender as long as Anderson is playing like garbage, spacing or no spacing because 20M is a big hole on the budget for a shooter who only contributes 12 pts per night. We all saw this on the GSW game, Anderson needed to explode for 20+ pts, that's the type of performance we need from him if we want to beat the best of the best. His game average of 12 pts doesn't cut it, we need more from our starting PF spot if we want to be a contender. I don't know why you're so happy with his performance you keep ignoring all his flaws, you don't even acknowledge Anderson's wildly inconsistent performance every night he's so erratic you don't know how he will perform night in and night out. Morey is someone who always looks to upgrade the roster, but for me out of the starting 5 Anderson is the only one severely under performing his position, his volatility is extremely worrying.
Your problem is you're focusing on something that's not there. Just because someone doesn't agree with your ridiculous belief that Ryno has played horrible you want to believe we attribute everything to him. No that's not the case. You should just stop right there and trying to make yourself feel better and actually understand what people are telling you. It's been said from the very beginning. He has a role. And up to this point that role has been huge in getting the Rockets playing the way they have been this year. Couple that with guys like EG and our young guys playing much better this year and it shouldn't be a surprise they are playing well. You have this perceived belief Ryno needs to be a 20 pt scorer night in and night out for this team to be a title team and I definitely don't see that. His usage doesn't allow that on this current team. There will be plenty of nights where he will though, just not enough to average that Great timing once again on your part. This thread has been dead for the past week but low and behold who is making the most noise once again after last night. lol
Dude look at your posts, I said Ryno played horrible then you replied not really because the Rockets are playing great. What do you mean you're not attributing everything to him? That's exactly what you're doing. When was the last time somebody said Brewer played bad and somebody defended him by saying the Rox won the game? That's exactly what you're telling me here, what kind of role "is getting the rockets playing to playing the way they have been playing this year". Then what's Harden's role? MDA's role? Since when was Ryan Anderson responsible for the whole team's performance? He's here to provide spacing and score lots of points for the team, while the team benefit is important it is also important for him to put up his own individual numbers, just like with every other player on this team. I'm not surprised that the team is playing well, even in the preseason I said the Rox had the potential to be 3rd best in the WCF. Making noise? I'm just responding to all your posts LOL you keep posting replies to me then say I'm the one making noise? Then when I didn't post you keep saying I'm nowhere to be found which is it? It's hard for you to see anything because your mind is already closed, you've never acknowledged any single criticism of Anderson you just keep denying everything people say about him, if people say Anderson is not up to par automatically they're stupid, ignorant or both in your book just look at your posts in this thread. Even your term "noise" is ****ing offensive, who are you to tell other people what to post or not to post? You're not a mod here what right do you have to call my posts just noise when I'm posting my grievances in a thread about Ryan Anderson making 20M? I'm perfectly in line if you don't want to read it nobody is forcing you to do so. Maybe you don't think we need a better scorer but the record so far doesn't agree with you. So far these are the results against the top 2 teams in the WC and EC: Spurs game 1: Win Ryan Anderson 20 pts Spurs game 2: Lose Ryan Anderson 6 pts Cavs game 1: Lose Ryan Anderson 12 pts GSW game 1: Win Ryan Anderson 29 pts Raptors game 1: Lose Ryan Anderson 13 pts Celts can also arguably be classified as a lose as Horford wouldn't miss layups normally, in fact their last game he scored their game winning layup so while technically that was a win, it also shows how we need actual scoring from Ryan Anderson rather than just "spacing". Obv we have wins against crappy teams or when Harden or somebody else goes on god mode but if Anderson has his typical 12 pt average night we will likely lose against the top teams when everyone else also has their average performance. In the NBA everyone can win or lose against anyone, but the real contenders have a good chance of winning against the best teams in the league when everyone on the team just plays their normal game.
I've criticized Ryno plenty since he decided to come here and acknowledged what he may or may not be known for. Just because you didn't see it doesn't mean it isn't out there. The type of player coming in was the type of player we were going to get. The only thing you see is me targeting you is because again you have gone on and on about him. And quite frankly just to complain like i've said before. Yeah you make the most noise when you try and find reasons to support your agenda but coincidentally quiet when he has even a good game. What does being a mod have to do with anything? If you're going to make off judgements about a player then be prepared to get called out upon. Right now all your comments are basically on par with Harden's beard and his Beverley thread about defense.
I cant remember when was the last time he did that spin move. He started putting it on the floor now. I like it.
Love ya, ROXTXIA. SacTown allegedly had a falling out last night. Here comes the implosion. Atlanta is a mess. Here comes the implosion. And, Gentry's mess is ready to cut it minus AD. Good parts there. #Birds! Birds! Just for you: Look at the teams going through implosion. There's many. We have short list of 5-8. I'm most excited about Tobias Harris. Get to the the rim like nothing. Young, wants to win. Secondly, the front court needs help. You may not get Boogie, but there's a few Free Birds begin to leave. So, again, the BIRDS are going through implosion. Mislsap is an expensive wildcard, but willing. Jahill is left for dead, but is great off of the pick and roll. We have options. Tyson has had it. Wants to win again. Bring him here. Protect the rim. Just know KJ is OUT sooner or later, unless he becomes Eric Gordon. KJ/Brew (maybe) role-players/picks and your front court/backcourt is good to go. Free Birds. Free Birds. Wildcard: Mr. DG in Denver is ready to play for a better coach. Ne is close, trying to get him here for more shear shooting/slashing/one-on-one. Peace. Radiation again. Love ya'll.
Ideally you would like to get more out of a 20m/year guy, but without him this offense wouldn't work nearly as well IMO. He's effective not because of his actual production, but because of his gravity to draw defenders and open up space. Reputation matters and every scouting report out there says don't ever leave him open.
Tyson, yes even at age and contract. I'd go for Splitter, much needed interior d there. Omer back in Houston, would he fit? Gallo or Korver would just be sweet on this team. I'm not that sold on Tobias, this team needs defense and frontcourt rebounding. And that contract yeesh, little less than Anderson though replicating his flaws still. But he'd be a sure stretch 4 fit with slightly better D. Yes KJ is certainly looking like trade bait about now. As are other players if its getting expensive upgrades like Gallo, Millsap, Holiday, Tyreke, etc. Can't fall in love with ANYONE on Rockets roster not Harden, Gordon, Capela, not even Beverley, Ariza, Dekker or Harrell
Cod, peace to you and yours. Get through that g**damned radiation. From my aunt who underwent the same, I know it's rough as hell; it's one of those things we can only imagine the suckitude. Strength, bro. And thanks for the information. We have to look at these teams closely. Thing is, I don't know what player I'd give up, unless we get a star in return; Capela and Dekker are playing very well for us, but as we all know, it takes stars to win big...or, at least, Morey will chase the big names if or when they become available.
Ryno has absolutely played horrible, and no where near the value of his 18 million dollar contract. Stop acting delusional because your attracted to him. He's overpaid. Deal with it.
Yes! Thanks for the info COD! I always look forward to you're posts. I've been wanted Tyson since the begging of the season. Please please bring him in!
Sounds like how much he makes bothers you way more than me so you might want to take your own advice there. Can he be more consistent. Probably. Absolutely played horrible. Not even close.
