Thank god. Pop needs to just throw him in the fire, that will be the best way for him to re-adjust. Hopefully he doesn't play only 2 min a game in this next stretch. This has the potential to be HUGE for us!!!

EDIT: Sorry for bumping this. I missed the other one. I'll crosspost.

Seems like Green took his place today.

How does he compare to Green? Is Green a better defensive player?

James has a ways to go. He had two young and very different college coaches, therefore he developed in college as a and into a raw talent. I think he has advanced skills and a great head on his shoulders. Danny Green is ahead of Anderson probably because he was tutored and advanced through college by one of the great programs, and not just thrown out there as Anderson was. As far as coachable skills Greens have been farther developed when comparing the two of them. As far as raw talent Anderson looks good. I think it looks like a toss up.

I think heading for the playoffs, Green is the best candidate to develop as that SF defensive guy. Anderson has more talent but still is a bit raw and his injury has made him a bit out of sync.

I expect Anderson, Butler and Quinn to be in the IR list for the playoffs. Unfortunate for Anderson in that I had high hopes that he would contribute this season.

Looks like a good decision. Green is active, looks like a decent defender and can shoot it - albeit probably not as well as Anderson, but good enough.

... It’s not a good sign for Anderson’s spot in the rotation that he was inactive for the second straight night and Green got the first call off the bench. Green produced nine points and three assists in only 12 minutes. It’s looking that Anderson will have to regain his health and work a lot over the summer — workout or not — to try and earn more playing time in his second year next season.

+1. Anderson's shot has been way off as well ever since he came back....
