    Welllllll. Time for scoot and Shae backcourt. Sad day though, hope he recovers quickly

  2. Whatever the line is for team turnovers, take the over.

    Well 3/4 of this sub wants to trade his ass to start scoot and Shaedon together anyway. Now they’ll get to see it.

    Hope they’re happy. For the other 1/4 of us that know he’s our best player though, It’s gonna be a long month and a half without our boy.

  4. Fuck off he looked so good against the Clippers and I was so keen to watch him play tonight.

    Going to be a long 4-6 weeks without our number 1 scorer

    Goddamn I wish this was the Flagg draft class coming up

    At least now we can take away any shred of hope (or worry based on how you look at it) that we’ll overachieve and sneak into the playoffs.

    And let me say yes I know it was extremely unlikely to happen anyway, all I’m saying is that now there is basically no chance. So do with that realization what you will.

    Woooot more games to tank!!!

    And Sharpe gets to start now. Let’s go Sharpe!

    CHAMPIONSHIP HOPES ARE OFFICIALLY RUINED!!!!!!

    Sucks for Ant. Silver lining is less off ball Scoota. Boy needs the rock.

    Like I’ve been saying, health is the #1 concern over the course of this season. If Ant needs corrective surgery, get it done ASAP, get it sorted. If it’s just rest/rehab – Take as long as it takes to get right.

  11. This fucking sucks, no matter what you think the future holds for Ant here. If you are rooting for him to stay part of our core, this is a really unfortunate time for him to be out ~2 months and unable to gel with the rest of the young offense who need a scorer on the floor with them. If you are rooting for him to juice his trade value before the deadline, even worse.

    The only upside is that Sharpe gets more minutes and can start, I guess.

    Gonna be brutal but… Player development, I guess. Get well soon, Anfernee. Just bummed for him more than anything… This is his time to shine.
