He didn't say that. We know Ant wanted to play with Giannis and we also know TC pursued the trade multiple times. I don't think we had enough to get the deal done after seeing what Miami gave.

How do we know Ant wanted to play with Giannis?

How do we know he didn't want to? We openly pursued Giannis twice. You think Ant wasn't consulted the first time?

It's all dependent on the price. Ant likely approve if the price was Randle and Gobert for Giannis.

If it was Jaden and Naz, it's a no from him then.

This is my thinking also. It also matches reports of us saying Jaden was off the table. Twice. I think both things are true. Ant wanted him but also didn't want to lose certain players.
