Church of Kyle Anderson

Dude is for arms what Kawhi is for hands.

Dude is for arms what Kawhi is for hands.

That's why he gets steals and occasional sneaky blocks.

That's why he gets steals and occasional sneaky blocks.

And rebounds and assist passing over the top of players.

Dude is for arms what Kawhi is for hands.

Kawhi also has the same wingspan.

What's the use of being speedy, quick if you're too stupid to learn to be in the right place on offense and defense?

I think Slo-Mo KA and his BBIQ will figure out quickly his role and where to be and when.

Also seems like a classy guy who'll fit right in to the Spurs org.

Simply astonished Spurs got him.

When I first started watching him play on these highlights, it looked as if he was slow and unathletic, but he seemed to have command of the court.
Then I looked again, but this time at all the other quicker faster players around him as he had the ball.
I was surprised to see that they too seemed to be slow, even slower than him, as if they were playing in slow motion, and Kyle was just toying with them.
I think that is how he got the nickname "Slomo", not BECAUSE he is slow, but rather because he makes the game and everyone around him appear that they are playing in slow motion.
We will see, but I look forward to it. I haven't been this excited for a new Spurs player since Manu first came to the Spurs.
So many here said negative things about him too, but he proved them wrong quickly.
I look for the same from Kyle.

Another player he might be comparable to is: evan fournier

I hope we get to see some significant minutes for Anderson early next season with Mills and Manu recovering, even though they are guards...

[r0drig0lac]

sometimes he reminds Dejan Bodiroga

These two injuries could be blessings in disguise. Anderson may need to learn how to play PF like Diaw. I just don't see how he'll work out not playing PG.

[Mr Fundamental]

He reminds me Paul Pierce in transition.

Slow but effective when driving to the lane.

[xmas1997]

I think I have probably lauded him enough on here, and now I should just sit back and watch what transpires.
Most are being guardedly optimistic, and rightfully so.
I just hope I turn out to be right, the Spurs will be awesome this year if I am.

Nancy Lieberman loves Anderson and said he is perfect for Spurs. She thought OKC really ed up passing on him. Also Bobby Hurley was his high school coach so it's no wonder he is best passer in draft

Bobby Hurley said, "I think that you let him play the point. He gets everybody shots. You don’t have him back defensively balancing the floor, you’re wasting him. But you let him do a lot of what the point guard stuff entails. But then also defensively you don’t bother guarding him on the little guy. Put him on maybe the three man or even sometimes the four man if he’s a step-out player. And now you have a guy like Larry Bird who anticipates. He gets a lot of deflections and steals. He’s long, he blocks shots. And then when he gets a defensive rebound, you got a fast-break started already."[

Nice block by KA

[Sean88888]

I'm definitely in the minority here but I like his shooting form. It's good enough to get it over the defender, he's comfortable doing it, and he's shooting at a good percentage. It's not broken. Don't fix it.

I agree. I actually think this is what we'll see.
Spurs are really lucky he fell to #30.

[Dre_7]

I LOVE his ball handling skills. I hope he gets a lot of PT early in the year.

I didn't notice this before, but Mr. Anderson is "The One".

[beirmeistr]

I have a feeling that Kyle does mot care for his nickname.
