Anderson >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Hairston, Gee from what I've seen
All 3 have the same kind of game.
Well if he can shoot then he can stay on the court.
But really not someone who can give the Spurs a different look.
but if the Spurs are paying his salary then they were wise to get someone who can contribute instead of a project.
the plus i see is he has got accuracy and athleticism.
Anderson >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Hairston, Gee from what I've seen
Today? Or in terms of potential?
I haven't seen enough of this guy to call it. But Hairston would be a very impressive rookie today.
Does this mean James Anderson will spend alot of time in the D-League next year with Gee and Hairston?
Based on intuition?
Got to think that all of those brick shots by Hairston has caught up with him. He may be better off spending time in Europe for a while.
does anderson need time in austin?
so anderson is just insurance that hairston or gee can contribute?
anderson will be the 3rd man off the bench next year behind hill and blair
spurs are now loaded at guard i wonder where this kid will fit i just hope he gets minutes and doesnt just sit on the pine
but with gee,hairston,temple and now anderson the spurs have options at the g spot
He's going to have to fight for minutes this year. As a rookie on a Pop team, it's gonna be tough I think. Maybe something like a Hill rookie year, given looks but then stashed in the playoffs. Just a hunch. Hope not, but if his defense is as weak and he's more of a specialist shooter like described, I see Pop taking a year to fix his defensive problems.
Then again, we do need a shooter.
I don't know. I'm very confused about what to possibly expect from this pick.
If the scouting reports are to be believed, the guy is a great shooter with above average athleticism that could help him attack the basket. While he may not be a quality defender at the moment, it appears he has the physical tools necessary to become more than passable in that area.
Seems to me that he has the potential to add another dimension to the Spurs.
If there was a playoff game tomorrow and I could pick between Hairston or Anderson right now, I'd pick Anderson. Our lane is too busy right now with tony/manu/tim/splitter/jefferson as slashers, Anderson is perfect to fill a role Roger Mason had in '09. Hairston is a better defender for sure though, it remains to be seen if Pop can teach Anderson a thing or two on that end.
Definitly better based on potential, and imo better right now as well, just can't call it cuz we havn't seen him in the big leagues yet
I don't understand this pic. The Spurs are already filled with Guards, but they didn't have alot of options with forwards or Centers because there wasn't anything good available. I heard what I heard with Parker, but I'm glad they didn't pull the trade because I'd rather see Hill and This draft pick go than Parker.
Anderson will replace Mason who actually got minutes last season. That's good enough for me.
It depends on his defense, obviously..while Anderson can work on his D, Hairston and Gee can continue working on their lacking skills as well during the Summer..Summer League is going to be interesting..
While Temple and Anderson are probably more skilled then Hairston and Gee right now(at least IMO), they don't come near the athleticism of the latter 2, and neither of the formers(especially Temple) have the weight to compete against SFs..so that will be important as well..
I still maintain that Hairston and/or Gee's development is going to be crucial for the Spurs..neither are great prospects, but they're the only hopes for the Spurs to have athletic SFs to stick in for defensive purposes..Jefferson has no hope and nobody else on the roster fits the mold..
I really don't know how this will affect Temple/Hairston/Gee..Anderson is more of a SG than anything..are the Spurs going to stack up with guards in Parker/Hill/Manu/Anderson/Temple?..that would leave Jefferson as the only option to guard SFs, which obviously sucks, unless they want to bring Bogans back, which would suck even more..
Hairston was a stiff in college.
Anderson was a stud.

agreed spurs need a legit sf to help out right now off the bench
The thing I like bout this pick is his "pedigree". He's a top dog out of high school, was a top dog in the Big 12 and I think asking him to hit some jumpers off the bench... for a natural shooter, I don't see him getting rookie nerves like most.
Pure shooting ability, wide open shots, with his background it should seem easy to him.
Anderson is a lock for the 12, no doubt about it IMO..it's just a matter of where and how much he will play, and whom it affects..I think this might affect Temple more than anybody IMO..
Okay. I ask it. Does this guy remind anyone of the other Anderson? You know, Derek?
If he is as good as Derek... then we are on to something.
To call Anderson only a guard is unfair. He is a legit 6'6" with good reach. He is as tall as a lot of NBA SF/SG players like Mason or Bogans. He is also a lot better athlete than either of those guys.
good as in mr.loyalty bolting when his contract is up?If he is as good as Derek... then we are on to something.
Anderson is a great pickup...
... for the Toros
