    Has a ways to go before he becomes a franchise player as he's only played 11 games this year. However, at 27 ppg he's the youngest player in the league (24) averaging that much.

    I agree, the term is meaningless. It would have been cleaner to simply say Ant is clearly the best player on the team.

    Kind of seems like Simons is becoming a "Nightmare" for other teams? :dunno:

    However you want to label Simons, I'm liking his trajectory.

    That too... You still don't think Brogdon is the best player, do you?

    I love watching Ant attack the basket like he did last night against the Kings. He makes it look easy with his ability to elevate and variety of shots. Scoot looked great last night as well at it. Those two along with Sharpe will eventually be an excellent 3 guard lineup much like we saw last night....but with Brogdon instead of SS.

    Reath is clearly the best player.

    Interesting interview with Ant. Now we know why he gets off to slow starts. This is a segment from the full interview that will come out later.

    I'm getting on the "we better not trade Simons" train because I'm increasingly understanding we couldn't possibly get equal value for him.
