    I'm a lot more worried about the prospect of Vile ot (sp. intended) than Anderson. Kenny actualy showed some signs of contributing against Toronto. The last few games he was hustling on defense and coming up with some big steals. Against Toronto he also made some shots and got a few assists, his best outing since he returned from his injury(he is still limping). 
    Many observers(?) have blamed him for the defensive let down. I don't think so. Jackson didn't hurt us (1-6). Who was guarding Carter, Oakley and Davis?
