He's 23 years old and is getting better every year, even younger then one of our rookies who is in the G league. I think your off the court judgements are clouding your mind. By the time he is 26-27 he'll be the best if not one of the top few in the game. Hard to tell with other guys like Wemby how he develops.Coolbreeze44 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 6:09 pm I don't think it was ever lit. He approached it, but hasn't made it, at least not yet. The two things that have me feeling bad about this team:
1) I wasn't against trading KAT, but this trade sucked
2) I don't believe Ant has what it takes to lead a team to a championship. All star? Probably many times over. But I can tell you I for one was hoping for more.
Just for the record, we drafted a guy who is older than Ant, yet by now you were hoping for more from Ant on the court?Coolbreeze44 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 6:09 pm I don't think it was ever lit.

He's one of the best in the game right now from a talent perspective, but champions have more than talent.Wolvesfan21 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 6:54 pmHe's 23 years old and is getting better every year, even younger then one of our rookies who is in the G league.

If we left it up to the fanbase, Naz Reid would average 25/10/5 and lead us to a dynasty, but that's not gonna happen. I don't think we're winning a title ever, but if Ant ain't the guy, so be it, but then you really wanna blow all of this up to smithereens because that guy isn't on the roster and we're YEARS away from even dreaming of that guy being on the roster via the draft.
So the way this team has set themselves up, either hope Ant gets it done or find a hobby that won't bring you so much agita over the cold winter months.
So Wiggins?Coolbreeze44 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 8:34 pmHe's one of the best in the game right now from a talent perspective, but champions have more than talent.Wolvesfan21 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 6:54 pmHe's 23 years old and is getting better every year, even younger then one of our rookies who is in the G league.
