Sources: Rockets pushing for a RYNO trade before the deadline

First game of the season Ryan Anderson got 8 three point attempts against GSW.

Next game he got 4 attempts.

Next game they gave him 1 three point attempt.

That is called scouting. They have ALREADY adjusted for Ryan Anderson, and that isn't a bad thing.

 

This isn’t just GSW. His three attempts are declining with his percentage. Check it out by month.

 

Wrong.

It's a...SECRET...AGENT PLAN!

They are just rope-a-doping Dan Tony and Mauri. In the playoffs they will leave Ryno open beyond the 3 point line and laugh all the way to the Finals.

 

Not because teams are leaving him open. Teams have been doing the opposite. They basically stick to him like glue because he's proven he is scared to shoot if even the smallest player on the court is near him.

 

Hey genius,

They did exactly what I said they would do. They pushed him a little further out.

Game 1 - 3 for 8 (very meh)
Game 2 - 1 for 4
Game 3 - 0 for 1

Anderson is a huge negative against the Warriors........period. He can't defend anybody. And they're too good defensively for him to hurt them with his 'spacing'.

 

@basketballholic what are your predictions for the Rockets at the trade deadline?

 

Dude, are you a gawdamn r****d? That is not at all what you just said. You 100 percent just said that they would leave him open. They obviously did not.

He was open for 1 three pointer.

What in the ****?

 

He has been such a p***y, dude won’t even shoot

 

I think we'll get Anderson moved. I'll be disappointed if we don't. And we're gonna get another big from somewhere. I don't know who. Long list of possibilities including Tristan Thompson, DJ, Boban, KOQ, Ed Davis, Brook, Robin, Jonas (hope not), Noel, Biyombo, Whiteside, others, etc.

Not willing to go beyond those generalities. Our greatest weakness centers around interior defense. It will be addressed in some form.

 

Is dmo better?

 

What I am seeing from Anderson right now is the defense just needs to make a "token effort" to close out, and Anderson is gun shy to shoot the 3. He puts the ball on the floor and ends up doing nothing.

Not gonna get it done.

These @Clutch tweets from the last game say it all.

 

Watch the game.

Lol

Just because he only took one shot doesn't mean he wasn't open.

 

I wonder if we can get Holmes somehow, seems like he's basically out of the rotations at this point and he's going to exprire next season...

 

8 attempts.
4 attempts.
1 attempt.

Gameplan leave Ryan Anderson wide open appears to be working in an odd way. The more wide open they leave him, the less he shoots!!!

 

It's this exactly. They stay in his proximity and then run at him. He pulls the ball down and NORMALLY can't do anything after that. He tries to draw a foul on a weak pump fake that no one falls for, pivots a few times and then gives Harden the ball back.

He's a total mess.

In the 60 point game that crazy spinning 3 from Harden came after he gave Anderson the ball and Anderson got scared and gave it back with no time and Harden had to heave a miracle.

 

That's why I wouldn't mind the Rockets getting Joe Johnson on a buy out. He would be taking those 3pt shots. And if he had put the ball on the floor, he could do something with it.

 

Anderson is always open. He shoots too slow and the scaredy cat balls too often for someone that really is a great shhoter.

Hence sitting out 3 feet behind the 3 pt line. He is easy to negate at this point and should be moved to the bench.

 

Exactly. Make him catch at the very end of his range or a little beyond and distract him while in shooting motion.

 

I would love that move.

 

Apparently you ain't watching the games. Several posters here are telling you what is happening.
