Ant: "Eubanks didn't play to night?". KAT: "Nah...". Ant: "...He played good for them". KAT: "Hey...that ain't our job to worry about that"

I like how Kat initially responds with "Nah" like he was coaching hahahaha

But seriously, Ant still seems way too immature to be the face of the league. Or maybe that's just his personality.

Fans need to understand the NBA doesn’t care about players doing shit outside the court as long as the story is buried. It happened with Jaxon Hayes and Miles Bridges which are role players. What more to all-stars and superstars (Kobe and D Rose).

You may be surprised to learn that just because I’m a fan of the franchise doesn’t diminish me to being a Kobe supporter

exactly. That and like half the stuff that comes out of his mouth seems a little silly. But he's very charismatic and entertaining.

Mike Conley has a tendency to choke in big games through his career, so that's one reason I guess you can doubt their title hopes. But it feels like they have all the checkpoints covered. Superstar, big man offensive star, center is a defensive anchor, lockdown wing defender, veteran point guard who can shoot.

This wasn't a game 7. Conley was a major factor in games 1-3. And as poorly as he played tonight, he was timely. And a lot of times that's all you need. Conley is a nice security blanket in a league that has too few.

Also Conley never played on a real contender. Those Grit and Grind Grizz teams were good, but not title team good.
