    Have to hope that Joe Johnson's miserable year isn't because he's washed up. Shooting below THIRTY percent from 3.

    In his last 22 games he's had 10 games where's he's missed every 3 he's taken, and 5 others where he's been below 33%. Basically he's been god awful.

    True. But I am of the belief he would be better here in MDA's system with a defined role and getting open looks via MDA's offense.

    Johnson gives you the cheaper poor mans Carmelo.

    Hey I'm all for it as a buyout candidate but I'm definitely skeptical. I mean that slump is worse than Ryno.

    Oh yeah, I am sure all the posters here are in complete agreement with you.

    Now, back to your echochamber and general creepiness young man.

    Ryan Anderson sucks. He was overpaid because of Les wanted a splash in FA. If it were up to Morey he would not have signed him to that contract.

    Sucks? That's a little much. I'd say overpaid. But it is what it is...

    He sucks plane and simple. Dude has literally one job and that is to make threes and he can't even do that well.

    He needs to leave the Rockets ASAP. He is not a championship level PF at all.

    1. He does not suck. It is stupid to say he does.
    2. Anderson is hardly a free agent splash. The majority of casual fans don't even know who he is.

    I'm telling you: Anderson and his siblings or cousins have usernames here and they are in this thread.

    For me, Title chances for us this season, I'm ballsy enough to say we're gonna win the chip this year. I mean, I'm probably wrong, but I stand up for my team, na mean?

    But next season is probably more important than this season. Many critical pieces to the roster we have today will be coming off the books.

    It's more than Lebron, it's getting a possible 4th star, securing our big-3 in CP/Harden/Capela, and maintaining a roster of great role players.

    Ryno can single-handedly torpedo those things, WITHOUT his shitty performance on the court. And if we suck in the playoffs this season, this might end our dynasty, because of a single contract.

    It's clearly worth pondering how we can deal with it now rather than the off-season. It's going to suck hardcore if we get there and Ryno is still on the books. We'd essentially end up letting go critical pieces just to keep Ryno.

    Considering I was here before Ryno was traded here and wanted Millsap, Ibaka, or even Illysova... yeah, not someone who is related to Anderson. I will however call out stupidity.

    Ryan Anderson has sucked for most of the season. What is there to debate?

    At 10 ppg with 36.9% shooting from deep, he does not suck. It is completely asinine to suggest he does. Mediocre this season? Sure. Overpaid? Legitimate argument. Suck? Not even remotely close to the truth.

    That's his only job in terms of scoring, not his only job on offense and definitely not his only job throughout the game. Also, you if think 37% 3pt shooting is the definition of sucking, you are incredibly stupid. It sucks for Ryno, because normally Ryno is a great shooter. For a big man however, 37% is DAMN GOOD shooting especially at 30ft out.
