Ant is not a #1 option

[wizenheimer]

I didn't say I wouldn't trade Ant at all. Just not for anything less than equal value.

"equal" value is a pretty subjective gauge though.

True. Simply saying it shouldn't be a fire sale.

A #1 option, for 99.98% of teams, can’t be shorter than 6’6.

If he's the #1 option on a team playing 8 G-Leaguers in the rotation, sure, there won't be much success. Put him on a roster with a bunch of healthy quality vets, I think there's an argument to be had.
Any clown on here making judgments on players to coaches based on the talent level of the past 36 months is ridiculous. How do you know what Billups can do with a roster like Milwaukee? Or Ant running point for the Nuggets? Quite sure there would be some different opinions.

Clearly he wouldn’t be the #1 option on the nuggets. A player by the name of Jokic might have a say in that.

I just LOVE that THIS is wha the Uber Driver got out of that entire post.

Really tells the story.

Maybe he'll grow another inch this off season?

Or put on about 45 pounds of muscle so that 6’4” Ant Simons can play like 6’4” Ant Edwards.

I remember a game against Minny this season during a FT wind-up the view was on Simons standing next to Edwards talking to each other and it looked like a LB standing next to a punter

 

[wizenheimer]

it's been mentioned, a lot, about how Ant + Scoot just isn't anywhere close to working, at least not this season. Shows in the 2-man combo:



and in the 3-man combos:



4-man combos:

Some lunatic kept trying to sell us on Ant being on Brunson's level and that he was one of the league's best offensive weapons lulz...
