Missed the last couple of games, so good to see the report cards as the box score rarely tells the full story!

Good job, kek. SloMo has become somewhat of a whipping boy here recently, so I'm going to raise him to a B just to keep his spirits up :D . His defense was very good the entire game (loved the steal in the first half that led to an easy basket), and he led the team with 5 assists and only 1 turnover. He missed a couple easy shots, but overall I thought he played a very good game.

I agree that KAT has improved his defense this year, but I like Finchie subbing in SloMo for him in late game situations.

Not a great box score for Bite Bite, but you can't overlook how different we look when Daddy is back...there's a reason we have the best record in the league in games decided by 5 or less.

I find it almost impossible to grade Ant because of his inconsistency. Last night he had a terrific offensive first half, a disastrous offensive second half, and then one of the greatest examples of one on one defense in the last 25 seconds that we have seen. Ungradable!

I don't understand why teams go at Ant iso/one on one in those situations. He wins that matchup almost every single time.

Despite Ant's very unclutch offensive performances this year, he has had some late game clutch defensive performances. That's something some of the other stars just can't do. But man, he has a long ways to go on offense in late game possessions. Confidence is awesome, but when mixed with indiscretion it becomes foolish.

Q, if you get a chance, check out the clip of Ant's defense on Jon K's X last night. Jaden (another great on-ball defender) claps his appreciation for Ant's defense as the play is still going on...fun to watch!

...saw it. Impressive stuff. He's a real weapon on that side of the ball in clutch situations. That will come in handy during the playoffs.
