It's beyond bad. The league condones it.

The staff should have a guy mark every time Ant yell “hey”
Then make a video after every game and post it to YouTube. Can’t suspend anybody if it’s the team doing the talk. Let the fines rack up, expose the refs for what they are.

I don't know when is Ant going to get some of those calls. But that is the thing, other guys hide the fouls. Towns act like he is guilty when he didn't touch somebody

Jim is right that tech should be rescinded. It’s bad enough you miss the call, but then you add the tech to something that obviously wrong.

Ant, I get he is hot but missed wide open Gobert at least twice.

You don't yell 'hey', that is disrespectful to the Refs - lt is like you dumbf* miss a call again.
He needs to yell 'ouch' to pretend he is hurt to get sympathy points for a call

Ant found Rudy that time!

Tor - OKC going to OT.
Tor gave up the tying shot with 6 seconds left.

Slow starts and fast finishes... Oh my poor old man heart lol

I haven't been able to watch the second half, are the Rockets shooting terrible, or is it our D that's stifling them?

OKC has been good in the clutch this year with Holmgren and SGA

If I was out there and they missed something that obvious and egregious, I might have yelled “you god damn dumb*** moth*******.” I think he showed great restraint. In general hey is no worse then yelling “foul” like Karl does. The answer is stop yelling anything and just get back on defense. Then take the fine and trash them when they are especially bad.

if ANT ever gets that "feel of the game" that even Kyle Anderson has, he could be MVP caliber
ANT's such a bull in a china shop, everything is full speed, beating guys with athleticism, when a lot of times just reading the defense and making the simple pass when two guys commit to him, could get such easy offense

KA is pretty effective even when he's frequently one of the least athletic players out there, hence the nickname
just takes his time, hardly does anything fancy or impressive

We are moving on up - to coach the all star game. Finch and Flip are in elite Twolves coaching history.

100%! I think Ant has the physical tools, desire, and willingness to improve that is so rare that he could be the League’s MVP. His ceiling is that high, and if we have to lose games, even this season, for him to learn how to do it - it’s worth it. That’s how valuable an MVP is in the NBA.

However, his ultra-high ceiling makes it so much more frustrating, and makes us impatient.

You’re right - if Ant can learn when to shoot and when to pass, how to read opponents, we could have the best player in the NBA.
