The Hornets have stated flat out that they will not be buying him out. It certainly would go against Stern's philosophy to do so, which gives the idea that they would only either trade him or keep him some legs.

A good role player that is putting up near the same to better stats at the age of 23, than Lewis did in his prime allstar year, LOL!
Yeah I would say most are just hating on Anderson.

Like I said before though, I would take Ellis, but if you do, you might as well do a salary dump because Ellis + Howard + garbage = 1 and done in the playoffs this year and beyond so Otis might as well look to 2013 to go after one more big fish.

Doesnt change the fact that he's one dimensional and a **** defender. This doesnt prove anything that I said about his game as false...LMAO You're doing the same exact thing that I said you guys do (had you quoted my entire post) I got the laughing smiley.

I didnt say he wasnt playing well or that he's a horrible player as a matter of fact i said word for word in another thread that "Anderson essentially replaced what Lewis gave us from an offensive standpoint"

He's still one dimensional, he's still a **** defender, and we still lose to the Hawks imo if we played them in 1st rd with or without Ryan..What does your "he's playing like Lewis did in 09" comment actually prove>? Nobody is hating you guys just have nothing else to say when facts are posted.

Lewis was a **** defender as well early in his career. Also if Anderson is so one dimensional, explain the 8 rebounds a game he gets next to the greatest rebounder of our generation?

Also Anderson is a spot up shooter due to the offense being run. The guy has showed plenty in the paint when given the opportunity, which is rare due to our ball hogging guards and Howard posting up 99% of the time.

The guy is a future 20/10 player. Not sure if he will ever be a good defensive player.

Why does that even matter? Dwight is far superior to a 100% perfect health Bynum.

Maybe we could sign Sheed

Didn't he go to the Lakers?

Also...not sure Davis will have many opportunities to even shoot with Ellis and Howard.

you better give him his shots.... or he'll cry!

seriously though, i don't really want to watch BBD for 30mpg+. not sure what cheap alternatives might be out there for a half year rental for the TPE though.

I take those statements with a grain of salt. Any time a team says they won't do a buyout, think back to the Steph Marbury situation in New York. Also, Stern definitely will be hands off after everyone jumped on him about the failed Chris Paul trade. He has to let people think Dell Demps has a purpose there. Plus cutting Kaman now, makes it a little bit more likely that they can find a buyer before the draft in June.

Dwight is better than Bynum at basketball in every single way except FT shooting. Bynum can also go down for the count at any time while Dwight is unbreakable. I don't even know why I made this post.

Skip has nothing of actual value or substance to add, and his knowledge of basketball seems fairly limited, so he has to resort to being the perpetual devil's advocate, going against all common sense and factual information, and relying on stuff like "the clutch gene" in order to ensure people notice what he has to say.

Who cares what Skip has to say? let's get back to the exciting rumor of acquiring Monta Ellis!

And if we trade Jrich for Beasley, and play Nelson and Ellis together?

Ellis, Duhon, Ish
Nelson, Wafer
Dorrell, Beasley, Clark
Beasley, BBD
D12, Biedrins.

He never said that. He said it could be.
