I just want him to put on some weight to help him finish through contact and compete for rebounds the way Diaw can. I reckon weight is the wrong word-- strength is the better word. Diaw in Phoenix that third year was still strong enough to snag 7 boards a game, and I can't see Anderson approaching that in his current body (Phoenix's offense style helped those stats, obviously).

Ideally, I'd like to find a way to have him run the point, but it seems unlikely with his speed that any team would have him as their primary handler from a starting position. Maybe when their starting PG is sitting/injured, he can give the team some tick there.

But he's got the Diaw relative size and passing for sure.
