Not a fan of this trade.  Nelson is a minus and Anderson is good role player.
17/7 is not a role player.


Yes it is. 


He is not a star.


He is a good role player that has found a team that he fits so well in. 

He's a player capable of star-level production who will be under-rated by some people because they associate stardom with volume scorers who can play iso-ball, whether efficient or not. That's ok.  There are people who seemed to think Ray Allen was really just a glorified role player who happened to be really, really good at hitting threes and didn't see him as a Hall of Fame talent until he won a title with the Celtics and started approaching the three point record.


He is not Ray Allen.

He is 3 point shooting big man that is very good.


But he is still a role player.

IMHO, Ryan Anderson is a budding star who might take a step back if Howard leaves, but who might leap foward instead.  This holds especially true if you look at the advanced statistics as well as total production.  The last three years, his PER has been 18.1. 19.0, and 22.6, while his win shares/48 have been .161, .217, and .255.  These are all above average, and tending into All-NBA territory.

No thanks.

Not looking to be the Olando Celtics. Anderson, Bass, Pietrus, Nelson, are you serious?

Formula didn't work for them, won't work for us
