ANT's elevation by the media and fans last season was nothing more than a response to foreigners takeover of the league

His team did make the WCF sweeping the Suns and walking down the defending champs in game 7 on the road. He got personality and game and his complexion allows people to delude themselves into saying he resembles Mike :mjlol:.

If they were desperate for an American star you got Tatum and Brown right there in Boston and they won it all.

He's avg like 27 shooting 42 percent from three

Comparisons are thief of joy

Think about how it started for this guy coming out of school…People didn’t even know if he liked basketball. Nobody expected him to be the player he already is

What happened was all this Michael Jordan shyt got you nikkax lopsided so they can’t appreciate money for who he is

Was Penny the best in the league? G. Hill? TMac?

Skip Bayless fukked Yall in the ass to the point y’all want to get takes off you can’t even make money off of lmaoooooo

Having one good/great season isn't enough to elevate a player to that level

For example,Isaiah thomas season in 16/17 was better than Ant last season where he finished on 28.9 ppg, clutch as fukk and took the celtics to ECF and yet He didn't receive half the hype or elevation. We have seen plenty of players have great seasons and never got elevated, Ant's elevation was neither merited nor organic

Define this “elevation” you’re talking about? IT had all kinds of hype and fanfare. Even non-Celtics fans were cheering for him because he was doing what he did at his size. He was in commercials, name mentioned everywhere. Televised matchups, etc.

There is no “elevation”. If ANYBODY being celebrated, it’s Ant. His game puts asses in seats. Adidas gave him his own shoe, like many other signee’s. Were they not supposed to promote him?

Not only do wolves fans froth at the mouth over him, others tune into his highlights almost every game. Plus he stays out of trouble.
