    first time in a long time I've seen the Rockets actually call a play for Ryan Anderson to get a 3.

    I thought he had similar bounce in the Lakers game too.

    JVG on Anderson:

    At home, only shooting 39%. 48% on the road. 44% from 3 on the road, 33% at home which is unusual. When I quoted those stats last year, Daryl Morey took me to task saying it's an insignificant amount. Something about the data. He & his wife lambasted me. ... Statistically insignificant from what I've been told from the MIT nerds. I think it's very significant.

    Rockets' 1.15 Points Per Possession on isolation is NBA's highest since 2004.

    No other team this season is 1.0

    Seems Shaq would be a major factor in '04.

    If he's contributing on offense, it helps everyone. He takes pressure off Harden, Gordon, and Ariza when he's hitting his shots.

    Gun to my head, I still put the Warriors as prohibitive favorites but the Rockets are clearly the 2nd best team. - JVG

    JVG knows basketball inside and out, Daryl is a good GM, his knowledge of the game is limited.

    That or they know they have to fix this man mentally. We all know he can shoot and hes been afraid to imo

    We need a confident Anderson again
