    Home Anderson is a p***y who hesitates and results in bricks

    Away Anderson is an Alpha who just lets the ball go.

    Im kind of optimistic about it. We will only have homecourt in the 1st round anyway.

    I think problem is when he is at home his fiance arguably made him to take care of the trash and other chores so there go his legs and on the road he's carefree and has his legs back...

    Good to see him adjusting his game. It means he's aware of the problem. If teams start leaving him at the Toyota Center, then we'll have a problem. For now, it is what is. Having Dekker in the wings certainly helps ease the pain. I wouldn't say Harrell because it seems he's been getting most of his minutes at the 5, right?

    At home he drains his wangus; on the road he drains his threes. Dude needs to vow celibacy for the next few months.

    Clearly we need to replace the red paint with mustard yellow.

    i think its ok for me for him to shoot 30 feet sometimes but even at behind the 3 pt line he moves too much. you don't see Gordon move a lot after a shot so he has better percentage

    On serious note, maybe Toyota center lighting or depth perception is a problem for him?

    He does better from corner at home and I don't think it's because it's closer. Its because he's not looking at bleacher depth behind basket that clearly causes him issues.

    The only real difference is that he gets to be w fam and fiance.
    I read somewhere that Verlander gives Upton the cold shoulder before games.

    Maybe Ryno should do the same? For the sake of the team.

    Ryno does more for the Rox than just score...ask Harden about all the spacing he's happy with...The Rox now can win games with a couple players not having great nights now that Brewer is gone replaced by Lou

    I think players kinda start slow at home because the Toyota Center doesn't really start filling up till the mid 2nd quarter. The empty arena definitely throws the guys off

    Players have issues in certain buildings due to the lighting behind the basket and other problems. It's a common occurrence.

    I just want him to stop taking mid-long range fade away jumpers. He cannot make that shot with any regularity. I've been ok with him trying it all season since it would be a nice weapon, but it's not going to work. Time to cut it out imo.

    To your point, his percentages on 16+ footers are way down this year compared to last (37% vs. 47%!!!). But yeah I hope he keeps trying it and finds the range for the playoffs.

    I dont buy that. I think its mental/anxiety/nerves

    There is nothing about toyota centers lighting that he isnt capable of adjusting to.
