They need him to be back to what he was last year, which is an all NBA level player.

This winning against OKC in that matter, where it's a clutch game and you're actually working against them in the fourth quarter, that's huge.
It's been a great season for Ant, as you mentioned, a good season for Julius Randle.

We've seen it in the past against Denver.
