Anderson had an excellent season at the right time. He is still a little overrated, but definitely gets it done from deep. Not likely to repeat what he did last season.


HAHA!!!

Why can't he repeat what he did last season? Hits the three and hustled on the board. Ryan's game isn't very complex so I totally see him repeating what he did during the reg season. Unfortunately I see him repeating his performance in the playoffs as well but you take the good with the bad..that's why we need a true second scorer.

Yea i've always said that, when the defenses tighten up during the playoffs, he sucks at everything even rebounding he gets totally out sync.

Team's in general need at least one player to demand the double team, if we lose Dwight without getting a double team demanding player back in return our entire system breaks down, let alone Ryan's game.

GM notes... Magic made no offers to Gms this weekend... Danny Ferry to 76ers looks close... David Griffin to the Clippers has legs

I thought they said 7-10 days before the draft we'd have a GM. It's exactly 10 days before.

Right...7-10 days

I can't wait to see the over reactionary posts on this board if they hire bower. Those are usually funny.

Also, Kirileko >>> G.Wallace, OJ Mayo, Lou Williams and Ryan? No way.

AK47 played some of the best basketball in his career last season, leading CSKA Moscow to the Euroleague final and earning MVP accolades in the process. Wouldn't mind being a high-class role player in the NBA again. Prokhorov's Nets have long been rumored to be a possible destination for him.


Sounds pretty intriguing if he is healthy. I'd love to give him a shot but I bet he goes to the Nets. Kirleinko was a BEAST back in the day, injuries derailed him, I'm curious as to how he plays now.

This sucks LOL. . . We need to get through this alot quicker. . . We could potentially lose Shaw and anything can happen to one of our finalists. . . Lindsey does back out of offers alot, at least according to some of the reports some of you guys posted earlier. If we take too long we might not have many finalists left. . . LOL.

Does anyone else cringe when the Realgm page is loading (especially the first time you go to realgm for the day)? I stare down the wiretap box hoping not to see "Magic hire former NO GM Jeff Bower as GM"

Or when you go to check this thread in the morning and it's only increased 7 posts from the night before, meaning that there is no new rumors :(

Interestingly, Lindsey isn't super popular among Spurs fans either.
