Jalen Green too one dimensional at the moment for the Ant discussion. If he got his D to Ant's level I'd allow the disucssion.

LaMelo is the real comparison as I've been saying.

Personally I think Lamelo is just better but he has to stay healthy and the Hornets gotta win or he will be just putting up empty meaningless stats.

I think AE might've been catapulted into that realm prematurely.

Why we aren't giving Paolo that type of love?

Rudy and OJ Mayo were the cheat code in 2k back in the day

Yea those Grizzlies teams were filthy on 2K

Speaking of Paolo

I just want all young stars in the league treated equal regardless of baby mommas, their sig shoes, how many times they curse or how cute they are.

Am I wrong for asking for equality?

I don't know if I'd say he's better, same tier but they offer different things.

I think Ant can shine at the toughest level as his game isn't designed necessarily for efficiency, but because of his strength, athleticism and first-step, he can get buckets against the best defenses especially in the playoffs.

LaMelo probably to me is the best young offensive hub if he can stay healthy. As you said though, big if.

Paolo is in that tier to me as well but also has the Ant issues a little of not knowing how to maximize his teammates yet as he has some tunnel-vision issues at times. The strength, size, skill and athleticism though are impressive, no doubt.

EYE do
But the reason is his (perceived) lack of charisma compared to Ant, I fear

Cats rooting for NBA players just off vibes and not actual hoops.

Doesn't shock me though, that's how we ended up with Jordan

Can't wait for it to work again so I can pull my own "Starboy Paolo" post from two years ago

I’m already accepting that Lamelo is gonna suck defensively because he is a good scorer and facilitator. I can’t have him also having 10 turnovers and fouling out so he can’t even play crunch time though. THAT is a level of unseriousness that doesn’t exist with Ant and Paolo.

Honestly an insane summer by Phoenix front office given their constraints.
