If KAT continues to play defense like this and shoot the hell out of the ball he can stay on the team as long as he wants. Mike Conley was a +23 with the best turnover percentage in the LEAGUE. Edwards and towns were both a +27 and +24. Tough to beat a team like that when they are playing efficient and being nasty on the defensive end. Ant looked so much better in this game. Stayed patient with his mid range. Didn't go off the rails taking low percentage shots. Shot 3's. Just minimize the turnovers. Bottle this up and take it with to every game from here on out.
@Ben. Dude you really need to stop nitpicking at Ant’s game! There is no perfect game in sports period let alone basketball! The kid is carrying the team! With the exception of game 1. He’s played lights out! Stop reaching for material! I like your show, but some of the takes are ridiculous.
Plus/Minus and stat lines aren't really measuring what Rudy is doing. The Big Intangible.
Ant is a great scorer. How he finds his rhythm is not an issue. He needs to be much more careful with his dribble and passing, but the rest of his game is stellar.
Intrigued by the Boston game tonight! Feel like we match up favorably against Boston's biggest weaknesses which appear to be bench and big man depth!
