The hell with this wet blanket naysaying!  Antoine is a warrior!  He ain't
perfect but he has as big a heart as ANYBODY in the  N.B.A

You can't gat him out of the game, and I think that he has improved his shot
selection this year. If he ever learned to up-fake down low he'd be God!

He's a Celtic, get used to it and quit dreamin' about Rasheed and  the rest
cause Toine will never stop battling you!!!
