At 6-6 he is going to get more of a chance to play at the small forward than at "swing guard". There is that Crawford kid. Losing BJ Raymond's 3 point zone buster seems more crucial than CJ being too fast for opposing power forwards in close.

This is a problem I love to have. Nice find on the article.

I never understand why they call CJ a "swingman." heck during the pre-game for one of the games on the CBS station, they we're talking about his inside out game.

CJ is a pure PF with ONE move. He drives straight to the hoop, no baby hook, no jumper, no fadeaway. That said he's REALLY effective at that one move.

Hettel, he also has a pivot and reverse pivot to be fair.

What make Anderson D-1 worthy is his INCREDIBLE ability to finish from any angle, his anticipation skills off his own misses, and his physical strength. He does handle it pretty well too. When he takes a shot he is an animal until the ball goes through the strings.

He is D-1 deficient in Size, 3 pt range, mid range, ft shooting, and athleticism.

If he wasn't just uncanny in his ability to finish he'd play D-2 ball.

In that article the writer talks about Parrom's shooting and how it is greatly improving. Does anyone know how good of a shooter he is? Can you compare him to someone on this team like Dante?

I agree, though CJ does have a pretty unreal first step, and is strong as hell.

The best I've seen him this year was against UC. He was kissing it off the glass with guys draped all over him. He's better when our offense is spread out and has to take his man off the dribble. He won't be denied at getting to the hoop, but when it's crowded he has problems. Having guys like Redford on the team are a blessing to CJ, as it prevents whomever is guarding the perimeter from coming in to help when CJ drives. You can't really guard Anderson one-on-one.

I agree with the first four. But I think he's very athletic. And he can handle the pretty the ball pretty well.

He actually has decent size. It's just that he's a 6'6" interior player who can't shoot. There aren't many of those around playing major college basketball.

My understanding is that CJ has changed his game from his days at Manhattan. I was under the impression that he took more jump shots in that system, though I could be mistaken.

[MHettel]

Don't get me wrong. I like CJ quite a bit. He reminds me of a relief pitcher that throws a 100mph fastball, and you know that's all he's coming with.
