Anthony Edwards may be the ONE to save the NBA. He isn't one of these boring skinny 3 point shooters. He has a midrange, footwork, fadeaways, dunks, can drive in the paint, can also shoot 3s, post up, has dribbling, crossovers, can pass, can play DEFENSE. Anthony Edwards is the REAL DEAL. And he has that killer winning mentality.

There's players like Anthony Edwards, guys that want the smoke, need the smoke. They're able to perform at another level when they're against the very best. It goes to the killer instinct gene most old school fans keep talking about. Those types of players don't complain regardless of what they got going on. They work on getting themselves better, improving upon their weaknesses because they're the obsessive types that won't rest until they're able to complete their goals. Devin Booker, not one of these guys. It's one of the big issues of the modern NBA. More and more of these types of players are more vocal about not being as driven as others when it comes to improving their game and or stepping up during the playoffs. Players like Deandre Ayton and Ben Simmons comes to mind. They got it in their head that they're already at a high level and don't care about getting outside their comfort level in order to open up their limited game. Players aren't as dedicated as they once were. Worse of all, when confronted by adversity, lots of younger players aren't trying to overcome them as often as the former era players have. The money has gotten too good and the game's gotten too soft. They've gotten too comfortable.

Thank you for this video! Born and raised I the 612 of Minneapolis, not quite old enough to still be bitter about the Lakers leaving (but, we are ALL born bitter in Minnesota about that one. Though I am who you have described as a casual fan, I did watch a lot of hoops in the days of Magic, Bird, MJ. I celebrated the inception of the T-Wolves, enjoyed when we fans would chant “Pooh” for Pooh Richardson, cause it sounded like “Boo” but wasn’t. Suffered through all our improbable ping-pong ball first picks fall out of the top 3 until KG! We all got heart-stomped by Stephon, befuddled by Isaiah JR Ryder, suffered the Joe Smith debacle, were heartbroken when Malik Sealy died. I could go on, and on, and on…RIP Flip Saunders. KAT brought me back closer, but with fear we would mess up his tenure and watch him KG with another team. This is truly exciting. Ant is actually a pro-typical professional Minnesota athlete. Like the Kirby Pucketts, a threat at the plate and in the field, a real leader, demands much of himself, so expects the same from his teammates. The MN sports skeptic in me will have to wait, to see that we do not screw this up like a David Ortiz. Ouch. Again, thanks, and have a superb weekend!

I don’t take the MJ comps too seriously for obvious reasons and I don’t see him being the best in the league with Jokic/Luka/Wemby around for at least the next 10 years but he brings much needed character and competitive energy the league has seemingly lacked in recent years.

Plus with both of their games not being predicated off athleticism, there’s no reason to suggest they’ll be slowing down anytime soon, unless early retirement IMO. Even for Wemby, you can make an argument that he’ll be at or beyond Ant's level by the end of next season considering his offensive skill at his size and insane defensive impact. Ant is amazing and will only get better as he’s just 22. But I’m not predicting he’ll be overall better than these 3 players in the near future, or maybe even Giannis depending on his health. At his peak, I’ll give Ant easily best SG in the league, a top 5 player, and at least one league MVP

The current NBA is LIT. I've been watching since the mid 80s and this is one of the best seasons ever, with more good teams than I've ever seen. Edwards would be wreaking just as much or more havoc in the 90s.

Great video & excellent take! Keep ‘em coming!

Haven't seen a full game since Kobe's last game. This young man reminded me of Kobe. He has my attention and will watch him ball.

The DIRECT communication area for Millennials and GEN Z has begun!

Today's T. wolves is so exciting to watch! Men! Defence is what NBA lacks today, it's boring to watch with just shooting and shooting, scoring so easily it's boring, while Nuggets is also interesting to watch, what I want is to see a defense that can stop their dynamic offense!

Man you definetly got sub, great take. Keep up the good work.

This kid is a throwback to the 90s Era. The nba isn't ready for him!

update: no tf he ain't

Play-In Tournament = No Player left behind

Diehard Lakers fan. I’ve been on the ANT bandwagon for a cpl yrs - and I’m rooting for him to stay and win with Minnesota. He’s a DAWG, and he deserves to be the next face of this league.

I have to admit, I was so skeptical when he first came into the league because of some things he said, but man oh man was I wrong about this guy. His game is incredible and his work ethic and attitude seem to be almost second to none in the league. I see championships in his future

Great video BUT LEBRON does not bring fans to the NBA he’s almost ruined the nba all by himself. Look at ratings when he came in and look now

Agreed. Watching a sulking man baby on the court doesn't draw viewership

I hope Ant gets all the publicity. He needs to become the face of the NBA so it can start turning a new chapter.

Whoever wins Wolves vs Nuggets series wins the whole thing.

You can’t get more people like this, one of a kind. Respect

When he made that statement about players resting in the defense of fans who may not have the luxury of seeing multiple NBA games made me a fan. I'm now a fan. I hope they sweep Denver in fact they should because they're more rested. Nice win in game 1 I'm a Cavs fan but Timberwolves go get the ship💪🏾

As a Wolves fan, it's going to hurt when he wins a title with another team...

Nah, I'll have faith in the Wolves. This current core might go all the way. The great thing is that Ant does not have to go off every night cos there's good guys in the team wo take the load off of him.

@@loopseeker For sure, but I've learned not to get my hopes up.

What you're saying kind of makes no sense. Lebron James is the reason the league sucks so much these days. Having an overrated star is not what the league needs. Because that's just continuation of what we already have. Then the entire topic is that star beating records and winning more rings than Jordan. Same old crap. Instead it should be about the game itself. Lebron encouraged this bitch behavior. Quitting, making excuses, teaming up and the rest. Blatant flopping. Resting on defense. Not playing games. They need to look up to the ufc. UFC makes stars. But the business is not about the stars. It's about the fights. If a star leaves, great fights are still there. So you get new stars. With the nba, they're prolonging a star's career so much, because they rely heavily on that star, as far as coverage of the league goes. It's literally not about the competition at all. Or earning anything. It's about giving people awards. You have Jokic schooling the league. They completely ignore that, and talk about how LeBron needs more help. Or what he'll do off season. Because they're used to the usual casuals. Seeing highlights of a single dude. Of a team sport at that. They do not appreciate great basketball. Because the league does not even promote it. They're rooting for narcissist's. Because the league promotes them. They made wining irrelevant. Now it's more about stats than winning it seems. 90% of the league just a bunch of softies. On and off the court.

I kinda agree with you, but Ant is all about winning. He sacrifices his stats to play within the system, he is the top rated defensive guard and the only guard in the top 10 in defensive rating this season Ant would easily average 30+ ppg if he was just about himself. Listen to the way his teammates talk about him, he is their biggest supporter and they regularly credit him for the confidence they play with. He is the ultimate team player

@@IllMatic97 of course he is. He's the face of the league. He leads by example. And his example is shameful. Therefore everyone does the same since the "king" does it as well. Everyone teaming up, cheating the game, making excuses.

massive respect to this kid... I called it when he ran off the court trying, during the playoffs. he gave everything and he passed the skills/attributes eye test.. Edwards is that guy

Gotta love Ant, his effort, mentality and leadership is why they will win the chip this year! Yoooo that Rick Grimes vid after his dunk was perfect 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Im 44 years old,I watched MJ during 90ts.And by the way,Im from Serbia,so its only natural to be fan of the Denver Nuggets,because of the Nikola Jokić...but man,this kid reminded me on MJ .Every move he got,its same as when I was watching the Air Jordan.This kid will be the new face of NBA in years to come.Just to stay healthy

When he tells KAT to stop fking fouling, he looks JUST like MJ. I'm sorry that's MJ's son.

So refreshing! Definitely an old school mindset. That young man is a competitor!

I think MJ said what Edwards said about playing games. I grew up in Denver but this guy has my vote.

Ant is absolutely like an NBA player from the 80s. Gritty and tenacious. Love how he is calling out all of the load management queens.

Damn, he looked KAT dead in the eye and said stop fouling.......Respect

damn Kobe "you gotta send another one" :D

I hate how everyone pretend like Timberwolves are not stacked.

"Send another..." KOBE, KOBE, KOBE!

“The people might have money to come to one game” - that spoke volumes about this exceptional talent. Jordan movements, mamba mentality. This is what the “modern” nba load mgmt league needs

Man ! Thank you for showing the clips and not having them in a tiny box in the corner of the screen, while you take up the rest of the screen with your face and a big ass microphone.

1:25 a true dawg and winner!!

Ant and the rise of Paolo Banchero are two guys that are all in for playing each game. Mad respect to both.

That comment about fans paying money to watch you play, that feeling of abligation to play and perform every night for the fans is jordan kobe, just old school mentality, respect for the fans, and the hunger to win. Love it. Now go get that chip and many more, show the young fans who have never witnessed basketball in the 80s, 90s, 2000s what true competitive spirit and consistency is really about.

I really like your channel! Great views even when I don’t agree a 100% I understand why you think differently. I’m not from the us but currently living in it. I have a simple but I think valid question that I would love to hear your point of view. Why does the USA players don’t go into international competitions with the best players? I think that between Europe and USA there is a different play style that could be pretty good to watch and learn from both sides. And I think that the “level” difference that some people say the us haves over Europe is more a ignorant view than an actual reality. Thank you!

Great video my guy. Much needed analysis. I'm sick of pretending that this current nba product does not suck.... Whole generation soft... Player empowerment though right?

Old school lives forever the real is back!!

Respect to Ant…funny to think that the fans we’re alll on Booker like two years ago…what a joke…thanks Ant for trying to bring the league back

Love everything about AE on the court, great take. I love SGA game too.

Hopefully he gets us out load management, flopping, foul baiting, zero defense etc…

the fact he is seeing so much success this early in his career makes me so happy

Watching this while wolves are up 2 zip hits different

Man Ant is just so genuine and down to earth too. But nobody talking about just how smart this kid is. That mentality makes the entire product of the league better whereas all Booker and most stars care about is themselves. This kid is 22 and talking with far more maturity than 90% of players in the NBA ever reach

Massive respect! Haven't seen this media day interview, but the kid is talking sense.

I remember where I was the night MJ went off against the Cavs and hit the game winner on Craig Ehlo which ignited my love of NBA hoops. Anthony Edwards is single handedly making we watch the NBA again.

Those first 5 seconds 🤣🤣🤣

I thought the NBA was dying. The games suck to watch these days so i haven't been following Edwards game. Dude is legit. Props to him for trying to bring back the fire. Def gonna be watching Wolves games if i can, and i might get one if his jerseys. Thanks for showing this.

1:35 GOOD FOR HIM! awesome.

His comment about players sitting out games made me a A. E. fan for life. Hope he leads his team to a championship!!! P.S. this is coming from a Pelicans fan.

I respect Anthony Edward for his comment on not missing games

Wow, hearing him say these things genuinely made me a fan of his! God bless him!!

The thing is that the Ant man is really a 110% effort guy, and on top of that he plays defense and then after all that you had the talent and spectacle he puts up? holy hell, hope he doesnt get hurt cause he is pure show
