I think you're missing the point. Spurs are below .500 for December.
He was said to be too slow but watching him move has made me evaluate that again. He looks slow because he is covering a lot of ground with each step. His height and length will make him a better player in 2 years.
Ceiling?? Solid backup at 3 or maybe even 4 positions. A Boris Diaw type player.

That's about as re ed as it gets. Were you one of the idiots whining that Nando was being kept on the bench?
if spurs get healthy he could go to austin and play more minutes and get better
but he is still good
Another decent outing for Slomo. I wish he would quit driving two feet from the basket and then kicking the ball out, you're 6'9 just take the shot already.
Nah, he's right. Nando was a better rookie than Anderson(though Nando was four years older).
I think your missing the point. Was Anderson playing much when spurs were winning? Has his PT picked up in the month of December? My point is with injuries the spurs are down the end of the roster searching for minutes and thus winning games becomes more diffucult. Anderson is going to be a good player, but he well not help this team win this season.
Nando played three years of professional ball overseas. And NO, he wasn't better. He was just plain awful.
No. Nando sucked. There's a ton of potential all over the league, in colleges and smaller leagues all over the world. Most of it will never be realized, and I don't know if this kid Anderson will ever pan out to anything. He could though, but Nando looked pretty good to, had crazy court vision just couldn't play a lick of defense and was basically unable to grab a spot.
he clearly isn't too slow to defend the three and has plenty offensive moves. He is a keeper. His shooting is also solid, although a work in progress.
Reminding me more and more of a big Kendall Marshall.
Good skills, great skills maybe. Good size. But athletically so limited that he's not a real option for a good team. Force feed him minutes, especially on a losing team, and he can show some nice stats. But as a real option on a team that's contending or trying to ... Not buying it.
Kyle Anderson is gonna change the way we look at basketball
He looks like he'll be fortunate to still be in the L a year from now tbh.
Where are all of the people who said he is a lottery talent
Who said he was lottery talent?
Maybe they were because they had the most difficult schedule of any NBA team in December. But expect the Spurs to make a run as their schedule is pretty easy for the rest of the year.
Pull the ka draft thread
Anderson's lookef better than I thought he would. Not every rookie's gonna be Kawhi. If he has a growth curve similar to Joseph, he'll be a top-eight player on the team by 2016. Dude is gonna be a load on offense when he puts on weight.
Not only the weight but he'll be a beast once he realizes his length will let him get shots up over the majority of people defending him. He gets 2 to 3 feet from the basket on the reg but then passes it out. Once he gets over that hurdle, he'll be quite the player overall. His defense is nowhere near as bad as advertised as well. Def a keeper but needs consistent minutes.
i don't think he should put up weight, i think he should rip first and then see what he can do.
Muscle weighs more than fat, so he can "rip" and put on weight.
Maybe the Spurs? RC let out that in this "deep" draft, the Spurs only graded 20 players as legit first rounders, and Kyle was one of them. Nothing says that he had to be #20, either.
Getting leaner won't make him quicker laterally, he's too slow to defend wings in this league. Put on 30lbs, become a power forward and Diaw
