    All I could hear was Kobe's mouth.

    I seriously don't understand how Anderson plays in the NBA. He's the slowest NBA player I've ever seen.

    Dang popovich knows how to groom coaches too. Maybe we should try to steal Becky Hammon hahah. She's for sure better than Madsen.

    Goes to show how much of a difference having a tried and proven system makes. Seems like they figure out exactly how to use any player that they end up with.

    Well, Anderson's nickname at UCLA was "Slow-Mo" so there...

    Hahaha I'm a fan of Anderson's game. He gives hope to those of us who weren't gifted with natural hops and speed. He'll get at least a little more athletic working on his body over the course of his career.

    Dude plays slow and I said it when he got drafted, the Spurs was the best place for him to end up in. He has the talent but not the athleticism, they will figure out how to maximize him.

    True but you know the Spurs will make it work. Boris Diaw isn't exactly the best athlete. He has size sure, but the Spurs were able to utilize him because of his playmaking and IQ. They might be able to do the same with Anderson.

    He's very bad at creating space for himself because he's not quick though. We'll see if it translates at the NBA level. I have my doubts but I see enough skills in him where he could at least survive in the NBA.

    I just don't know. I mean I was nervous with Russell and thank goodness I was wrong there. Anderson is a new level. I just don't see how he's effective in the NBA.

    Because of your avatar, I read every one of your posts in the Most Interesting Man in the World's voice. I even put "Stay Thirsty My Friends" on the back of like a 1/3 of them in my head.
