You might have missed news that the Wizards signed Alan Anderson running across your ESPN ticker. It was sandwiched somewhere between another FSU quarterback doing something stupid and the mundanity of July baseball.
This is the type of NBA transaction that certainly will not “break the internet,” or even Twitter, but can still make-or-break an attempt to get over the hump of the conference semi-finals. Anderson is not Paul Pierce (nor, for that matter, is Jared Dudley or Gary Neal), nor is he the previous apple of Washington’s eye, David West (who spurned the Wizards and more money for a “really good chance to be competitive for an NBA championship”).
