What's the common defense for the anaconda?

Or the basic defenses?

The defense I use is which ever side he wants to roll me to, I post my leg to that side so he can not roll me. From there the escape is not too hard as he has started to twist his body.

if he get it while on knees i just sit out then finish with a single leg

If you get to the point where he has already rolled through (you are on your back), post both hands on his hips to keep him from being able to walk his lower body towards you to tighten up the choke. Then bridge slightly and scoot up so that your back is on his chest. Then, you can hook his arm (not the one that is around your neck...the one that he has his hand on your back....in the pic from Aesopian's post above it would be the guys left arm) by hooking your arm on the same side over the elbow (basically putting his tricep in your armpit and locking it down with your elbow). Begin to turn in to face him, and you can start to set up an Americana on that arm. Hope this makes sense.

I tried the aesopian today and couldn't get it to work properly. What exactly is a mule kick? Do you kick up and out or just straight? And where exactly do you grab on the back of your leg?

Mule kick = kick your leg backwards like you were trying to kick your own ass with your own heel.
