This gotta be the ultimate heel turn since Ant is the favorite current day player of every NBA head that's still stuck in the 80s/90s.


nah it's really the 00s heads that gravitate towards AE. nikkas in their 30s

Hold up yall blaming the old heads for this stupid ass statement he made


:comeon:


Nah hold him accountable, the kid is a dummy
I’m blaming old heads for the disrespect they are getting. You don’t see this happening other sports. It’s the old heads continuously shytting on younger guys who are getting this type of pushback and it’s only in the NBA. NBA old heads are the worst in sports.

Some of y'all letting yourselves get trolled by Ant Man so easily :mjlol:

You think Ant doesn't know he's not even one of today's skilled players? His game is just 100% athleticism. Once that fades, so will his game. He's the new generation's Russell Westbrook and a lesser version of Russ at that.

That's why he knows he's gotta talk big sh*t now at the peak of his powers. I respect the scam. :ehh:

Guys don't know how to pass into the post without turning the ball over and they supposed to be more skilled today? nah

Players today are just more athletic and don't specialize as much in particular roles

this is 92

David Robinson was 1 of 1 and nowhere near the average NBA center. :comeon:


I get the idea behind what Ant's saying and yeah the skill level nowadays is through the roof compared to the 90's. They collectively couldn't shoot, rotate on defense and handle the way the guys do now.

His comment is stupid but was it any dumber than Charles Oakley saying that Giannis would’ve been coming off the bench in the 90s or Rasheed Wallace saying the 2017 Warriors wouldn’t have been able to guard Tayshaun Prince?
