So where does this leave Kyle Anderson?

[K...]

Kyle has no balls. Sad to say, but I expect him to take the James Anderson route.

Terrible. James Anderson was a foot injury dumbass. Kyle is struggling like a rookie bc he is a sop re playing in the league's most advanced offense

[K...]

fck his worth, time to give boban more minutes

you see how the defense collapse on boban every time he touch the ball...feed the man the ball clowns

Oh, they play the same position, genius.

[K...]

I think the Spurs are trying really hard to make this guy work, but I don't think he is going to be here long term. He has the length for his size but that's about it. He doesn't have the speed. He can't shoot the three. He can't shoot the 2. His shots are a slow. He can't shoot wideopen 3s and always allows his man to closeout. Worse than diaw tbh. His man to man defense is bad. 2 things the spurs love for new guys. corner threes/just threes in general and defense. He doesn't have either.

Another terrible take. Assumes players never improve their shooting. Oops kawhi never happened. Everything else is speculation. Yes he may never be good on defense but his role player skills ought to keep him a spur for a while.

If James was simply a "foot injury" why didn't he return and compete w/ Danny for minutes? All the talent in the world, no balls.

Kawhi showed flashes of talent and took the SF spot quickly. I knew he was special from his first few games. Started for the playoffs and Pop called him the face of the franchise for the future after his first playoffs.

Every player the spurs drafts doesn't become Kawhi/Superstar status.

Because that foot injury robbed him of his only NBA-level skill.

So kawhi replaces a pos Stephen Jackson,, and that's evidence that he's good.

Kyle is competing with a young, prime, kawhi, so he. must be a scrub if he can't get the starts?


As your say yourself, kawhi is special. Every other rookie don't get minutes. It's just dishonest and stupid to say you have an argument.

If you're gonna bash Kyle use stats and stuff. He's not gonna become anything special soon. But he's still a great prospect and will be on this team for probably 5 more years

Bull , a stress fracture is no career ender

Go dig up some threads from the time he came back. Then search for roddy beabois. Basically it killed his jump shot. It's a career ender for marginal players. It kills big men's careers ( o embiid) and athletic guards. Anderson wasn't athletic before his injury.


It's really sad with Anderson, but just remember, if Anderson didn't break his foot, we may not get patty or green.

I dunno.. Durant and Beal look pretty good returning from their stress fractures.

Is that why the Spurs just picked up his 3rd year option?

[rastaspur]

They are not scrubs. They are limited players but they were well coached and can execute a defensive scheme as the coach asks. Belinelli, who is an offensive player, also got paid. He had a significant role in the spurs being a bench scorer, and is now doing the same in SAC.

We have just been so lucky to have better players available who limited the roles for them when they were here, but they can play and have at least one or two things that they can add to a team that will get them playing time.

Baynes and cojo aren't scrubs. However, the jimmer and teddy pendergrass are

[Brazil]

Dude is not good enough for the NBA... I'm saying that from day one

I don't see him at any point keeping up with NBA pace. He seems a good kid and he must work hard and all but he has not the tool to play meaningful minutes in the NBA


I wish somebody bumped dat at one point with a Brazil for this take

[Brazil]

When I say meaningful minutes, I talk about being starter or one of primary guy off the bench

[dabom]

The way the cap and salaries are rising, the best bet is to keep the rookie scale contract.

This guy is primed to be replaced with another project. It's what the Spurs do.

[dweaver99027]

If he can be as good in his 3rd year as Cory was last year I'll be happy.

[steeledl]

Kyle is worthless. We have to figure out a way to package him and a draft pick/prospect for a wing near the trade deadline. Hopefully there will be sellers our there.


Ginobili and Anderson can't be our back up wings if we want to beat the Warriors. Ginobili is going to have no legs come playoffs per usual and Anderson isn't good enough for NBA basketball

The rare quality post from dabom

[steeledl]

Sean seems to be pretty enthusiastic about Anderson. He's even called him a future star. I can see Andersons potential as well. He has some great offensive skills and has great defensive awareness like Manu.

Sean is paid to tote the company line...... he does a good job of it.

[Obstructed_View]

Guys, Pop's running what amounts to a seven man rotation for the beginning of the season to get LMA acclimated. Let's not use it as fuel for our delusions.

[steeledl]

He will have to prove his worth, but ppl ting on him when he's played a spare minute here or there, has to be a special agenda. Either they feel like Kyle is getting in the way of their favorite player or something else is up, bc he really has played very little to generate this amount of negative attention TBH.

Damn, get off this dudes limp ass . He is terrible.... has no business on an NBA floor.

"la la la... I can't hear you.... la la la". Stop posting about a player.Denial and deflection are powerful tools for those who choose to turn a blind eye or elect ignorance.
