James Anderson is bigger Marcus Thornton!
Looks like a bigger version of George Hill
James Anderson is bigger Marcus Thornton!
James Anderson is exactly like LeBron James...except shorter, lighter, less adept at drawing fouls and finishing through contact, better shooting, less athletic, and was introduced without a self-aggrandizing ESPN special.
Satire?
Cant wait to see him play. I hope to see more ally oops!
Oh it's true if you read it right. I just thought some of the comparisons were rediculous, so I figured I'd go with the theme.
Dude knows how to score in a variety of ways, but I don't get the Ray Allen comparison (not nearly as smooth a player or shooter), or the George Hill comparison (not the ball-handler or athlete), or Joe Johnson (much more of an all-around player...can rebound, dish, etc.).
It's better to read his scouting reports and understand what he brings, rather than give him arbitrary player comparisons.
Who else can't wait to see this guy in action??
I cant wait
at 3:05, i didn't like that move, opting to pull up for a jumper on a fastbreak when clearly he could have crossed over and be at the rim with a potential and-1.
Imagine if Manu taught this kid the lateral "euro step" he uses when he drives.![]()
Why did he drop to us?
Seems like a Anderson is a scoring machine which we need.
Hopefully, he is another Blair.
I like he squares his shoulders on his way up to shoot......that is a sign of a pure shooter.
He reminds me a little of Mitch Richmond
I agree with AF on that one I don't see the Allen comparison tbh maybe I don't remember well the young ray allen. As for hill I really don't get it neither. Now I see what people means comparing to JJ but we should let him play meaningful minutes in the nba to evaluate his potential.
My "best case scenario" submission: a taller Ben Gordon.
Here's some more awesomness from the unofficial Spurs hottie Denise Milani:

He was great at Oklahoma State and they were pretty terrible. Looking forward to seeing him play with the Spurs.
Athletic, nice body control, sweet looking stroke. I hope this kid can make those attributes into a solid NBA career.
In other news, Pondexter also looks good in summer league. Gonna be a very good defender. I don't think we would have gone wrong with him either.
Yeah, we all know how much Pop would love that.

That is what I wonder too. Forget about the highlight video, you can make that of many players but what gets my eye is the le that flashes at some moment: "Big 12 player of the year". It might not mean a lot, but it can't be something bad.
He hurt his hamstring in just his 2nd workout with Houston, he said he didn't get to show off his full potential in workouts and didn't get to work out for a lot of teams due to his hamstring injury which he is still recovering from.
Teams also overlooked him because he was a junior, even though he destroyed the #12th pick Xavier Henry and the rest of the Kansas team when they played. Teams want real young guys who they think have a lot of potential.
His FG% also dropped last year, that also could be something teams didn't like. The only reason his FG% dropped was because he was double teamed the entire season and tripled towards the end of the season. Teams were focused on shutting this guy down as he was the only good player on his team. Most of his shots were very difficult, quick-release shots. Dude can shoot from pretty much anywhere on the floor though.
