    lmao, dude was being a smart ass but you couldn't stand someone saying something positive about Ant that you had to give your opinion for the 29676 time on Ant about what you think of him lol. Ant lives rent free in your head it seems.

    Oh wow, you defending Ant when someone is a fan of him but just think's he's a bad fit on this roster. That's mind blowing.

    That being said, you're correct that I am constantly frustrated with the fact that Ant and Jerami continue to be on this roster.

    You should be happy Ant is playing well, it will help his trade value.

    I am... as long as it doesn't net us any wins. I said it in the game thread that it's good to show other teams (even though I don't think his or Jerami's trade value has gone down this season) that he's still a bucket getter.

    Just so we're clear I want nothing but the best for Ant and I think he is better suited to be the third or fourth fiddle on a team like the Magic, which would free him up to be even more efficient offensively and surround him with defensive minded guys.

    Low is in the eye of the beholder.

    Don't think there is a market in which we can sell him high either. Perhaps if we introduce him to Mighty Mouse & Sheed and their "smokehouse", we can sell him high but that may be the wrong kind of high.

    I really think some of you guys have a more negative view of Ant that you should.

    But with that said, his recent play only helps his trade value. Remember how some of you guys were high on Ayton when we first got him? Now many wouldn’t mind if he was traded.

    I’m sure some teams will view Ant that way. We might be underestimating his value, but I thin no doubt with how the salary cap and CBA is now in the NBA, he will become more valuable in the offseason when he is on a expiring contract. Same with Ayton
