go back to the threads that were created on draft night. The crazies got a dose of reality.
Definitely a good sign that he wasn't taken out of the game mentally because they were daring him to shoot and his midrange shot wasn't falling. The frustration could have taken a young inexperienced youngster out of the game. On the other end, Kobe gave him the business at times, and the crowd got him going, but he didn't get rattled, showed composure to make the right plays, and helped us in the win. No TO last night either.
KYLE ANDERSON CAN TAKE ALL OF US HERE, ONE-ON-ONE, SEQUENTIALLY..........and all of us here, one by one, would be humiliated...........humans have such big heads
no human in spurstalk can defeat kyle Anderson one on one in basketball, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha..........conclu sion, guys in spurstalk are ENVIOUS of kyle hahahahahahahahahha
Many of his detractors focus on his lacking a 3-point shot and his refusing to take it. Personally, I would rather see him play within his limitations than hoist 3s at a 29% rate at this stage of his career. Working with Chip, Kyle will improve his shot everywhere on the floor. Even so, he is not the only player in the league who doesn't shoot the 3-ball well. O, Rondo, Rubio, MCW... Kyle was pretty good last night going up against Kobe, for the reasons you and ceperez cite. He is definitely a part of Spurs TNG.
Ya are some stupid cucks.
Can't do vs the clippers and got owned by a washed up Kobe. Made the lakers look like the thunder there.
I agree he should not be chucking the 3 like Austin Daye if he's not making them at a good rate in practice for example. POP is not exasperated by him passing up a 3 and taking a midrange shot. The 3 he's forced to take is the corner one and he does take it when he must.
I think it does limit him at this point. We will see more Butler in the playoffs for example bc the spacing and shooting is paramount, but Pop has to be aware of Kyle's current limitations. It is something he'll continue he to work on and hopefully improve. I'd like him to be at least Diaw like. It's not like he will be shooting them in volume, but shoot and make enough of them that he can pump fake drive like Diaw does bc we have seen he has skill around the basket, can finish around guys bc he has a nice touch. Last season Diaw regressed in his shooting the 3 and they were daring him to shoot too.
If it werent for KAs creativity, hed be screwed. He still needs to improve, and take his 3's when hes, at least, very open but its amazing that he gets away with not shooting it. The space he considers the defender to be too close to take the shot is huge, which is fine because of his creativity but needs to stop passing when hes completely open. That negates the good passing that got him the ball when he is completely open and that goes against team.
Looked like KA got destroyed by Kobe the other night...
We won that is all that matters.
P.S. (Kobe got 25 last time he was in SA guarded by another SF. You can't underestimate the desire Kobe had against the Spurs. This time he was playing at home).
Yeah but Kyle got owned by Kobe. No need to sugar coat . And this is a Kyle "thread". You can discuss the game in the gamethread.
Shot 10-25 and 1-8 from downtown... We won the game....
Shot 10-25 and 1-8 from downtown... We won the game....Beat the tanking Lakers. Celebrate.
Good thing we won and Anderson certainly had some good plays.
If you can't see some glaring need for improvement....
I can, but some also can't see that he did show up and made a difference in that game... won't say more bc it's passed, like water under the bridge. And the trolling will continue and I don't have infinite time nor desire to beat a dead horse.
Good thing we won and Anderson certainly had some good plays.
If you can't see some glaring need for improvement....
Anderson - 5pts, 3reb, 2ast, 3TO, -4 in 28 minutes
Butler - 12pts, 6reb, 3stl, 1TO, +11 in 25 minutes
"He was boxing out" SAGirl
Was not there to close out the game... against the suns....
2 assist 3 turnovers....
Suns with 3 more wins than the lakers....
If Kyle could hit the 3 consistently he could be a useful player. Without the 3 in his arsenal though he isn't really worth playing at this time. *cue a SAgirl novel*
Nah you are right. Have said this too. I don't see him in the playoffs either for that same reason.
I actually like him at the 4. If he can bulk up I think he can be useful at the 4. Still not sold on him as a 3 and don't see a future for him at the 3.
He definitely needs to add strength. I agree. Hopefully he'll continue to work on his game.
Been a die hard fan since 1989 and appreciate the words Dabom. I've been sticking up for my Spurs and Seahawks since 89 and I don't back down. I'm like the ROCK "JUST BRING IT" if u smell what I'm cooking
