00:00coach the temptation for Ant in this spot to go for it when Luke is going for it and LeBron is going for it
00:07it didn't seem like he forced his game until really the fourth quarter
00:10yeah I think he's growing leaps and bounds in that way for sure
00:14he's always ready for the moment
00:16he was outstanding, he was down the stretch and he knows he needs his teammates
00:20and I actually thought that there were times where we could have found each other a little bit better
00:27but he had it going and you could see in his eyes that he was going to make the play
00:33he was going to bring us home but early on Julius was really good
00:38and Ant was happy to play off of that
00:41Ant, you look across the way and it's the Lakers, LeBron's having a game, Luka's having a game
00:47how are you able to sort of recognize the moment and not shrink from it
00:52because a lot of people get in these spots, stars or not
00:54and are not able to meet those guys where they're performing at
00:58where do you sit on that?
01:00I don't even really look at it like a moment
01:03I just try to take advantage of every opportunity
01:05I mean because, you know, I've been dreaming of this all my life
01:10whether it was football or basketball
01:11so just being in these situations
01:13and now it's going against Brun and Luka
01:16and Luka probably the best player in the game, young player in the game
01:19and Brun is the best player leaving the game
01:22so just trying to, you know, prove I belong
01:25and to all my haters and people who criticize me
01:29that I'm better than they think
