@LonzoBulllol imagine saying Luka and the puke emoji after smh

I just disagree with the defense part of the video, first 2 to 3 seasons of his career anthony edwards was not a good off ball defender at all. This year he has the highest defensive rating as a guard. Hes in talks for all defensive 2nd team, hes been given votes for it too. His on ball defense is some of the best for his position, I understand that his off ball defense can improve but he a great defender.

Defensive win shares take in account the TEAM's defensive rating. Minnesota is the 4th best defense in the NBA. Anthony Edwards is playing on a defensively STACKED team. Rudy Gobert, Jaden McDaniels and Nickeil Alexander-Walker are all excellent and doing the heavy lifting here. Remember Edwards is often defending the team's 3rd-4th option so that he has energy on the offensive side. Ant-Man is a solid on-ball defender and with his athleticism he can easily be ELITE. But I think he's got a ways to go before we compare him to MJ

Kid is basically algorithmically learning the game. Every time he isolates a part of his game that needs work, he determines where that dimension of the game has diminishing returns if focused on in a vacuum and which dimension to elevate next to ensure his bag is well rounded. His defense and team oriented play this year is such impressive course correction and shows a self awareness that, when paired with his work ethic, will propel him into the stratosphere.

age matters; back then 3 years in college, Edward had to learn tricks that Jordan learned in the NBA first 2 seasons. luckly MN was patient and had great coaching staff that all has come together for young players Like JM and NWA, Ried.

Anthony Edwards, the next face of the NBA, is looking better than Michael Jordan in his first 3 years, it's a new and different style, nothing like MJ, don't start anymore

Anthony Edwards has a good defensive rating..

Vince Carter was as good in his early days too?

post aged like fine wine

AI took a weird trajectory such a bad comparison and AI played in a completely different era

Well , it seems with these playoffs Edwards has answered those questions emphatically.

His defense is far from suspect. Have you actually watched their games?

And no one will ever over take Mike as the most important player in basketball history because of the heights he took professional basketball. No one could ever do that. Jordan came in the league when most players didn’t live and breathe the game Mike lived to compete and be the best now players get paid enough to consider it a legitimate career path and work on their game full time, view yourself as the product and not just an employee. Once the divaism of players goes away and they just play the league will be the most competitive it’s ever been.

I mean, Iversons stats would have been a lot higher if he retired a few years earlier. Iverson had some nasty seasons though. Miss watching him play in his prime. Imagine if the Sixers were able to get a couple stars by his side.. Anthony Edwards seems to be improving every day though. He's going to be exciting to watch play for a while.. he has the right kind of attitude too

I been a big Jordan fan for 33 plus years and this dude is gonna become the closest we will ever see to Mike! Everything about Antman reminds me so much of MJ❤

Watching this video after he sept the suns hit diff

I hope he's also conditioning his body in the gym as well. Especially now while he's so young. He shows so much promise in his game to come.

The name Kobe doesn’t ring a bell????

ant plays like vince carter + dwyane wade with kobe’s mentality

I love these early comparisons. Now when the timberwolves fail and can’t keep edwards, make sure everyone complains that he had to leave to join other for help. If they bring more help in, hold that against him like you would lebron. Edwards is looking great and entertaining. People are just tired of lebron and trying to push the next face of the NBA. I hope he can continue to be great but make sure you stay consistent in judging someone’s effect on the game.

Im 44 years. Old I seen All three Play And tbh. ANT MAN. GOT IT NO. ONE IS OR WILL BE. MJ. Or Even. THE LATE KOBE BRYANT BUT. ANT CAN ABSOLUTELY BE THE BEST OF HIS GENERATION AND. THE NEW CHOSEN ONE GET. READY HE"S COMING

Ant man is one of my favorite players. Wonder how it will play out. Him and Wemby have the same mentality. Well kind of. Wemby was mad he lost in the all star break because Ant shot the ball left handed. Almost the same mentality. Wemby just put out the best rookie season since Lebron or Brandon Roy. Either way these 2 have trajectory to be the face or best player in the world for years to go
