LOL. I wonder if Ant will end up poor. He seems the type. I mean fathering 50 children in a 20 year span cannot be cheap.

He already has what 4-5 and he isn’t even a first team all NBA player or NBA champion yet. Dude needs to learn to keep it in his pants.

Ant is a finalist for Clutch Player of the year? Is that the Award given to the player that potentially generate the most money for Clutch Sports? LBJ must had won that for the last 10 years.

Clutch time is more than the last 10 seconds of games....

This is what I mentioned before the series. My worry was that the wolves as a collective just don't have the IQ to beat a LBJ lead team in a series. It's extremely tough to do. Ant will have to grow up quickly throughout this series if he wants to win.

How do you not love him...

Ant's legacy is slowly building. After beating Durant and Jokic last season, he's starting out these playoffs by doing it against James and Doncic. Next round, Steph Curry could be waiting for him as well.

It's easy to get caught up in the minutia when he gets tunnel vision or misses a defensive assignment, but he is certainly leveling up his game when it matters most.

After showing no real progress all regular season, his level of simple competent playmaking was a significant step up in the Laker's series.

I know the whole "Ant loves football more than basketball" narrative was mostly a meme, but one aspect of his that I think was strongly influenced by his football background is his attitude towards film. In basketball, especially at the lower levels, film study is treated as a necessary evil you would rather avoid. Conversely, in football film study is considered the life blood of a competent team and good players.

Ant making multiple mentions in postgame interviews of needing to look at the film for answers and taking study feedback from his trainer reminded me of that football mentality of figuring things out in the film room so you don't have to deal with surprises on gameday. Ant's willingness to really dive into the film this series to be fully prepared for what the Laker's were throwing at him is a big part in why he was able to read their defense effectively

Ant needs to forget game 5 and remember game 4. Yes I know he played well except for shooting like crap, but shooting is about the most important thing.
