Anthony went live right after the game and tried to break it down but it was all so raw that he just ranted for a while. JJ Redick blew this one. Rob Pelinka played a role because of the roster he's put together over the years. Luka Ball is maddening. Ant is really bleeping good. Anyway, enjoy -- or try to.
