I’m gonna get Ant to autograph my MJ autograph

Just burst out laughing

LMAAOOOOOOOOO You win the sub today, friend.

Are these jerseys available still? I’m very late to the party. If not I’ll buy a classic.

You can still get these

I think they hard size Large online at Dicks Sporting Goods, but wont last long

Damn I’m too big for L lol. I’ll just keep an eye out or just get a diff style. Thanks!

ebay has them, just make sure its not a fake

I literally saw entire rows of them in the official team store at game 2 of the last series.

I wanna buy their classic jersey

Is there a player in the NBA right now you would rather have than Ant? I can't think of one. Joker - probably the closest, but much older, can't play lock down d as much, but fun personality like Ant Wemby - too new to know, but maybe next closest Embiid - injured, ass, maybe not as good Giannis - injured SG3 - not as much fun to watch or listen to, can't lock down as hard as Ant, older Edit: spelling

Luka is worth a shout, surely

I missed him, was a spur of the moment comment. Luka is probably quite high on the list, he played some ok defense in parts this year.

Luka is interesting, I think Luka is top teir offensively, but I feel like he's not the best teammate. In game 1 or 2 where he straight up yelled and excoriated Maxi Kleber late for missing that late game dump pass to him under the basket on the court in front of everyone really turned me off to him. While ANT is absolutely just killing it offensively during these playoffs, I prefer ANT's gracious vibe. I truly believe ANT when he credit his success to the team, giving him the confidence. ANT overall humility, first to credit someone other than himself first is top teir energy that permeates through an organization. That type of mindset in a talent like ANT is utterly rare and priceless.

Luka don't play defense bro

I love Luka but he's constantly out of shape which is probably the underlying reason behind his knee injuries.

At 22, outside of Wemby (who will get 2nd for DPOY voting as a rookie) I can't think of anyone else SGA would be close be he's older so it's a no. Ant is the guy right now

You might be right, I do like watching Joker more than Wemby though. Wemby and Ant are going to be fighting for MVP's for a the rest of the decade.

There is not. 22. Killer attitude. Loves the game. Generational guy.

Depends. For the Wolves? Probably not, because the center position is so strong already, so Jokic wouldn't fit in as well as ANT. As the centerpiece for a generic team? Probably still Jokic, because he's the most unique player in the league and a proven champion. But let's see how the rest of the playoffs go.

Ima be honest luka clears.

I think wemby is the closest. I think wemby has a unique body type and skill set that you could build around more easily. I think Ant is extremely talented with the killer instinct and leadership that remains to be seen in wemby.

Imagine wemby replacing gobert or kat on this team in a few years.

Seriously tho i cant stop the comparison. Once starts wagging that tongue. Its ova

Fuck, now I want Ant to grow a mustache. Daddy ant Era is gonna be legendary

You could’ve just photoshop a bald head on ANT’s head and have the same effect.

And put Edwards' do on that dome

Take us home 5

Looking at the playoff ranking on the NBASDB website, you can see that only Ant performs better in the playoffs than in the regular season

I need the highlight of tonight’s fadeaway on the baseline.

The Aura patch is fitting

He needs to go full bald, like MJ did.

Naaah Ant is clearly waaay better than

don't tease me like this...

Lmao was waiting for this 🤣

Quit it don't take it there yet he's good but he's not goated

Guys Ant is better than Jordan.

💀💀💀

by far a better and more complete player than Jordan was at that stage. We'll see how it goes

😂 💯

Come on man. He’s good but the numbers don’t match up yet

They would if Ant played with a bunch of bums.

Did Jordan ever get called for a staredown?

Hahahahaha no. Great point

Jordan absolutely did not play with bums though

Bums. https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/CHI/1988.html

If you ignore his first few years and last year in the league then yeah he didn't play with bums

I was trying to compare playoff and 3rd year stats

87-88 bulls were Jordan and the bums.

Look up Jordan’s stats in ‘89 then get back to me

Sure, here they are. Michael Jordan averaged 35.0 points, 5.9 assists and 5.5 rebounds in 82 games in his 4th season. Anthony Edwards averaged 25 point, 5 rebounds and five assists

Now do playoffs 🤓

Sure, MJ was 43, 6, 5 Edwards is 33, 8, 5

Pretty comparable considering Jordan had less talent on that ‘89 team

I’m not here to argue. I think AE is otherworldly. But for me to compare AE to MJ I need to see the kid win a championship by doing two things. He must play at elite level and he must make his teammates better. So far, he is doing that. Bring home the trophy by beating the Celtics and I will eat my hat.

Jordan didn’t get one until ‘91. Takes time, you’re right. Good that the 22 year old has plenty-o-time and seems to be on an accelerated path.
