The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[ALNotSure]

the way he backs up to get a full head of steam and then he comes down and just uses his strength and speed is similar to lebron. Like a younger lebron. He doesnt have the same 1 foot rise though, but hes also way shorter.

Still is different. Lebron plays with much more force and less beauty. AE dances like Kobe and MJ. He clearly watched their tapes looking at his footwork.

Lebron plays like Pippen on a whole different level. Both amazing to watch but not poetry in motion like the AE, Kobe. MJ. Also they facilitate more compared to shoot first guards.

 

[HIM]

Ant purposely mimicking MJ and then acting fake humble about the comparisons. Wouldn’t be surprised if he quit on his team soon too.

 

[toneboi76]

Ant is more like a supercharged uber athletic Joe Johnson to me.


Also this is gross. Not my 3x MVP

Only one dude (Uptown118 ) had Minnesota advancing past the second round in our NT bracket (also has them as champs). A couple had Phoenix. everyone else Denver

We don't deserve Nick Wright.

"Ain't nobody come here to see you Otis."

Paul Piece technically isn't lying, but him saying this right now is just some old hater behavior. Sit down.

Mike got to his spots, I wouldnt say he danced with the rock a lot.

 

[WASHED KING]

Ant more skilled than MJ.

 

[JMB10215]

Paul Pierce has been singing Ant Mans praises on Undisputed this past week. I hope that was a old quote because thats terrible timing and lack of awareness.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I’ve never seen this, future teammates lol

 

[JMB10215]

Being strong >>>>

No coincidence with how they are calling it in the playoffs . You can see how the guys who take care of their body are rising .
Hali is having a hard time with the physicality of it as well.

Ant really puts it in your chest when he drives and posts up.
Brunson uses his strength to pin his defenders and pull up.

Also when JDub gives you that shoulder bump it’s over. Shai pushes off the lower body of the defender when he pulls up cause he gets so low and most ain’t ready for that.

Well said. I agree 100x

Most swaggerless team left

The reason Ant is receiving considerable praise and attention is due to his style of play on the basketball court. He doesn't resort to flopping or pleading for calls; instead, he competes fiercely, rallies his teammates, and exemplifies the mentality of a certified finisher. It's a refreshing departure from the behavior of larger players who resort to incessant complaining and flopping at the slightest contact. This brand of basketball embodies a more mature, competitive spirit, contrasting with the trend of older superstars relying on complaints to win games. The new generation of players certainly shows promise.

I'm a fan but Ant definitely complains as much as other stars







Just wait for it if they play OKC

 

[RustyShackleford]

How long before Pat Bev takes credit for the Wolves' development?

 

[picasso swerve]

Im still surprised Wolves had them boys locked up in hell last night but still even more surprised Marc Davis aint call that tech.

 

[finessence]

Ant and Wemby have the best mindsets of all the young players. That’s why they’re getting love.

Wemby actually tried to sneak BACK into a game

They truly love the game. Fans notice this

Ant yamming on dudes. Talking with passion. Talking it and walking it

Just be talking just to talk and be loud & wrong…

but still even more surprised Marc Davis aint call that tech.

Strahinjer and Michael Malone must have something that prevents the league from punishing them. Proximity to the horse lover, I guess

 

[rolaholic]

Can't lie, seeing Michael Malone all flustered and looking a bit shellshocked on the sideline was pretty great

Clowns gave Ant a tech for 3 sec staredown after too

Nothing when dude literally takes a TO specifically to curse out the ref
