I’m going to use my first ever “NBA Source” line.
An NBA Source tells me that Antonio is one of the nicest people they have ever dealt with. They couldn’t speak highly enough about him.
We specialize in misinformation around here. Facts and stats just get in the way.

You can be nice AND tough, can’t you? In fact, that’s even cooler.
“That Antonio is a really nice dude. But if you cross him, he’ll destroy you.”

I did say I was sorry. It’s probably too late to take him out verbally but I’ll do it if you want me to.
Give me a minute to prepare myself.

Yes, your apology was completely accepted and anything else is unnecessary.
I was simply answering your Dumas family question.
BTW, excellent choice in preparation.
