    Default Wolves were "too much" for Nugs after 2 games, but now they need more help??

    What will be the excuse when Ant loses?.. How can it be "not enough help" when even Lebron said the Wolves were stacked with "length at every position" - but now they need more help?..

    It's impossible that "more help" is the answer - the answer is Ant learning how to have great chemistry that "elevates teammates"... Currently, teammate elevation is impossible with his predictable down-hill, transition style that seeks mostly 3's and layups - little diversity in the looks given to defenses.

    He plays like the typical modern American player - a "down-hill" player - this will never generate championship chemistry just like it didn't for Lebron - Ant will need to team up to win titles just like he did.. And he'll still mostly lose

    It’s not that they need “more” help. They just need “less” Toody

    It’s actually funny. Ant looks like MJ with hair and plays like him. Op is shook.

    you're saying if Donovan Mitchell starts pouring in 3's and win another game against the Celtics, Wolves would have been perfectly fine, shutting the door on Gobert by not giving him help.

    they need help on offense not defense. the length was good for their defense. jaden mcdaniels shooting 19% from 3 for the playoffs is bad for their offense. Also ironic how when pippen plays poorly its his own fault and he's a a terrible 2nd option when pippen plays well it's because mj elevated him to a winning player. When KAT plays well he's a franchise player who "laid the foundation and kept them afloat", when kat lays an egg it's edwards fault . Hysterical mental gymnastics

    Ant's 44 had zero diversity - he's just a typical modern American player - a "down-hill" skillset that seeks predictable 3's and layups, which yields weak chemistry and weak teammate development or performance - casts need great chemistry to play great, so they can't play great alongside Ant's simpleton, "down-hill" skillset.. His point came via "down-hill" threes or layups, while Jokic scored a lot of mid-range and paint shots outside the restricted area - both of these are Ant's weakness but this in-between capability allows the team higher strategic capacity and chemistry, thereby allowing better teammate performance.. this stuff is intuitive and bball 101

    you're acting as if there's a tempo that can be played where Gobert isn't a turnover machine.

    Ant has to keep both hands on the ball until the last instant on layups, due to smaller hands... So he can't do the one-handed, extended arm layups that wrap around 7-footers like Dr. J or MJ did.. All his "hangtime" shots are the same - he keeps both hands on the ball until the last instant and takes a 2-foot jumper basically - it's weak shot-making skill compared to the wide variety of shots that MJ made... Ant is bad at paint shots outside the restricted area because they require the touch and shot-making diversity that i'm talking about.. Ant also sucks at mid-range (35% on mid-range)

    American media has had Ant's dlck in their mouth since before the World Championships last year. That was 'Ant's coronation' his 'coming out party' and his 'next step into superstardom.' He got owned by Germany in the semis and SGA in the BRONZE.

    He's a nice player, but the Nuggs are letting him get his playing him one v one, and asking KAT et al to beat them.

    Obviously until KAT shows he can step up its the right call

    Ant plays identical to Kobe (and thus somewhat MJ), when its Kobe OP says its superior brand allowing everyone to thrive, when its Ant its down hill 1 way type scoring allowing no one else to get involved.
