Like Ant used to get in the paint, have his fade, have his spin fade. It wasn't there. He stepped through. That wasn't there. He'd get back to the spin fade. Like Shea does that really well. And what Ant has done with the getting all the way to the rim is everything is kind of in the air off of one foot. You saw him last night in there like flying at the rim.

Yeah, but so I would add to Ant is maybe playing off a two a little bit more, and that would go hand in hand with getting to that second level scoring when you have to. If the three's going in, Logan, look, I'm not an old curmudgeon. If you're shooting and making enough threes to win games, do it. But you become more predictable when that's what you're doing, especially when they're not running.

okay but it's more nuanced you know what i'm saying because i i do but what i think to some degree if you will what you're missing in that is like it it's a threat for steph because he shoots it so well and because of how they keep him moving to get them the action that sets up his three is a very reflexive action. So you do this and you make that wrong read and Steph's popping for a three.

And because he's such a good shooter, people are closing out to him, just trying to run him off of that three. So now you've got a live dribble where you can shoot the head fake and use the threat to get by your man. Ant doesn't have that luxury because everything is off the bounce. Like, look, look. Yeah.

Like, I got a young son that plays like Ty. People have heard me talk about him before. Right. And he plays in a program that that it's a very good Under Armour program. But the guy who coaches him at the Under Armour level isn't his high school coach. Right. And I kind of stay out of it. Like, I just watch him play. But Ty's a pretty good scorer and they need Ty to score.
