@@gabrielaugone8135not to mention the fact that in the most important game of his career in a game 7 he went 6-24 for 16 points lol. Yet they try to push he’s the next MJ agenda because he kind of looks like him? Makes no sense.
IKR, Ant. E. is a great player but he's already coming in short, even in this "great" season he's having. 16 points on 24 shots... In the most important game of the series... Mj scored less than 20 points only 6 times ever in the playoffs and he had a much more efficient percentage in every one of those games.
That MJ can withstand a massive coordinated effort to whitewash his legacy w/ tens of millions in capital (probably more) and decades of tainted narratives is a testament to Jordans presently unassailable greatness.
1988 Jordan averaged 35ppg on 60% true shooting in a tougher defensive era + he was a great defender. At least their new player to promote has skills, unlike the last one (Lebron).
In 86 at age 22, game 3 against the Celtics and facing elimination, MJ had 19 points and was outscored by 2 teammates, Paxson with 23 on higher efficiency than MJ, and Dave Corzine with 22 on higher efficiency than MJ, MJ also had 5 turnovers, 22 year old Ant isn’t that far off from 22 year old MJ, I don’t know why he’s being compared to 25 year old MJ in this video
@@TheLionaaa1985 first round, 21 year old MJ vs bucks, Game 4 facing elimination, MJ shot 6/16 from the field, 0/2 from three, with 4 turnovers, and was outplayed by Terry Cummings on the opposing team, 21/22 year old Ant was pretty much just as good as 21/22 year old MJ
I came here to say exactly this. I almost feel sorry for people who weren't around to see MJ play. I'd never seen anyone like MJ before NOR since. Dr. J's game had a lot of the same creativity (and he was definitely an inspiration), but MJ was just on another level. Kobe came close, but even he wasn't quite MJ because he didn't have MJ's enormous hands that allowed him to control the ball in an otherwordly fashion. MJ was an artist out there on the court, truly "one of a kind". When another MJ finally shows up, there will be no need for media shills to try to convince us. We'll know when we're seeing a player that special. Neither AntMan nor LeBron are anywhere close to being "That Guy".
I've been watching basketball for 51 years, and I respectfully disagree. After I saw Dr. J for the first time, everything after that was just a pale imitation. George Gervin was similar. That's not a knock on Jordan, it's just that my generation couldn't see what the big deal was. What we admired was how his midrange jumper was money, that he played perimeter defense like a beast, and that his game was constantly improving and evolving, especially the mental game. I enjoyed him the second time around because he was starting to slip a bit, and still found a way to win. I even liked his time with Washington.
@@zachmartin1458 especially during his ABA days. Dr. J was a beast, no doubt and Gerving had sick offensive skills. But I think MJ was right there with Dr. J in the "high flying" department and MJ had more to his game.
It’s not that. It’s the fact he had two dynasties. It’s when he won,he 3 peated twice. Some players win one go back to back but only two players were apart of two dynasties him and Kobe. Yes him. The 3 with shaq and the three he went to after shaq winning two of them
@@kylonp7311 On the other hand, Wilt Chamberlain has 'just' two rings, and Larry Bird has 'only three. Ain't nobody gonna argue that they're not part of the GOAT debate. LeBron definitely ain't, though: anyone who has to proclaim they're the GOAT is no GOAT.

Especially when Ant doesn't even wanna hear it! If they really paid attention and actually liked Ant, they would acknowledge it. They just out here disrespecting the game every morning.
@crocidayle close to what..? Edwards is nowhere near Jordan's performances. Go look at both stats, then go look to the footage. Michael Jordan was way ahead on leaving his imprint on each game in 88-89 season. Dont get me wrong, Edwards has a strong case in the future, but come on, let's give him some time 1st before the Jordan comparisons. Can't he just be the 1st Anthony Edwards.?
How many awards did Ant win this year? I guess a possibility he’ll get a chip still but MJ did things that year nobody else ever has by winning MVP, DPOTY, a steals and scoring title in the same season.
And ASG MVP, Dunk Champion, and WS Leader on a team with 0 other all stars. Not to mention he was the 1st player ever to record 200 steals & 100 blocks in the same season, and he also broke the NBA record for blocks in a season by a guard. ESPN is delusional and knows less about NBA history than us casuals 😂
Brian Windhorst and Kendrick Perkins ARE 'complete' CLOWNS!

The hillarious part is they act like Ant doesnt have a whole DPOTY, 6MOTY, and All Star while having great pieces like Conley, McDaniels and Alexander Walker
The only place Ant beats MJ currently is that Ants teammates are much better. MJ at age 22 averaged 44 a game in The playoffs. Most of his stats went up in the playoffs. ANT has had several games under 20 points this run. There should just not be any comparison at this point. Let Ant just play and see where things go.
The league is just desperate to recapture the Jordan era that they're grasping at straws in failed attempts to build a new Jordan. Ant is no Michael Jordan but that doesn't stop the media from pushing the narrative.
@@20noldi indeed, remember how Jordan as a college player beat a team of NBA All Stars eight games to zero in 1984 in the pre Olympics scrimmages, including Larry Magic and Isiah,.. then took Olympic Gold.. .so yes if he had just a little more non cokehead players actually wanting to win, he would have.
Yeah, I remember 88/89 Jordan having, a former all-star, a current all-star, sixth man of the year, and a 4x DPOY on his team that's a stacked team. Oh yeah and Jordan did lose a 7 game series to the Pistons team with 4 Hall of Famers. ESPN are a bunch of 🤡.
As a T-Wolves fan, at least you can take consolation that the entire basketball world (even MJ GOAT camp) highly respects Ant. You guys are lucky. But yes, everyone knows the comparison is dumb.

@@sosaraycharles358 is it? Or is it that James has no bag, no fundamentals, and a horrible shot? He was a great athlete, so much so he fooled most people into believing he was a good basketball player. And now that his physical skills are waning, he has been severely exposed and is showing everyone his complete lack of actual basketball skills. Mike did things no one has ever done, as a guard. And that is why he is the GOAT, and who everyone is compared to, not just in basketball. Your cap is duly noted, as is your Stanzboys status.
I watched the Bull since one year before MJ got drafted. I don't remember him ever being as disrespectful as Ant. Maybe it was his upbringing or him playing for Dean Smith and Bob Knight, but MJ was always classy to the opposing stadium's fans and if he trash-talked, it was to an individual player and you barely caught wind of it. People need to stop this comparison, man.
It's not fair to Edwards or Jordan. Ant has that killer instinct MJ, Kobe and DWade had. Instead of just appreciating what the young man is doing, the media has to do the Jordan thing. It's tired, it's annoying. Let's rate these guys at the end. It's a total resume thing and you can't just say a guy is Jordan or Magic or any all time great. Just let them play and celebrate greatness.
That's exactly what ESPN is after, turning MJ fans against AE, so we leave Lebron alone. I love MJ and AE, and I don't need to choose a goat, I just like how they both play.
@@ByGraceThroughFaith777 Ant himself said he doesnt want the comparisons so ESPN not Ant will get all the backlash unlike the Burger King who's refusing to retire so he can stat pad and push more false narratives thru his pod
@@JustLikeYou.Indeed man, look, Ant-Man is great, but in the playoffs, Jordan ALWAYS was the best bull player, even when he lost to the Celtics or the Pistons by example, he was the best player of the series, I mean, if great Larry Bird calls you a god in your second season, that truly means something, meanwhile Ant-Man (I might be wrong) has had more off playoff nights than Jordan in his whole career
Edward's and his team have faced no opponent who was as strong as Jordan faced from 1985 through 1990 in Boston, Detroit, Atlanta, Milwaukee, and Philadelphia.
Edwards is playing with the DPOY, 6th man of the year, another Allstar, teammate of the year and a good bench. They don't mention that when they bring up MJ's name.
88 version of MJ is literally the top MJ just haven't win a chip yet. MVP, Steals leader, Scoring Leader, DPOY, 200 Block 100 steal monster stat, All star MVP, Dunk Champion. Seriously Ant is not close.

Never will any sport ever see an athlete, a competitor, or a WINNER like MJ. People have more chips and personal accolades, but no person had his true winners mentality or the fire to win at any cost. Hence why he is the gold standard still to this day.
Thanks for giving grounded context for the insanity on any bball news outlet these days. haven’t been able to turn on a sports show in over a decade, and it was terrible even then. But the extent it’s gotten to is Orwellian levels of misinformation.
I wish big media would just let these players careers play out. In every sport they’re always projecting and forcing the next goat or next dynasty. Let it play out then discuss when it’s over. Just enjoy the moment! Players can get hurt, teams can break up, etc.
You know what you do that i hate but is also a reason I sub? I'll be in the middle of writing a comment on an aspect I think you're missing and mid sentence, you hit that exact point. 👏🏿👏🏿
I like AntMan, but the form of Jordan he is closest too is the 2001 version of Jordan before he tour his meniscus injury. Just being honest because here are the facts ] In the 46 games that Jordan played before the injury, he averaged per game 25.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.5 steals, and 0.5 blocks on 42% shooting. Jordan's numbers were also improving as the season went on, as in his last 20 games up to the injury he averaged per game 27.5 points, 6.4 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.3 steals, and 0.5 blocks on 44% shooting, and in his last 10 games up to the injury he averaged per game 29.7 points, 6.6 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 1.2 steals, and 0.3 blocks on 47% shooting.[54] Before the injury, Jordan was considered an MVP contender at the age of 38 for what could have been a record-tying 6th MVP award! People just don't understand no one is ever coming close to MJ! Also Jordan had 8 40 points games on the wizards twice after the age of 40 and 1 50 point game with the wizards!
Over 1 bpg for a perimeter player is crazy. It's like the inflated stats future pros get in high school where you know at the next level they'll even out to 'decent' numbers. Then, when they're pros, they either average a career triple-single off the bench or get numbers similar to their college production overseas.
These sports shows have to have something to talk about plain and simple. Comparisons to the 🐐 are never going to end. Not in our lifetime or to the end of time for that matter.
This is why videos like this is so important. I like Ant & he's on his way to greatness, but it's blasphemy to compare him to a 88 or 89 Jordan. As a sports fans, it's crucial to understand how mainstream media is pushed by agendas & finding different outlets that offset the propaganda.

Because Lebron is a freak of nature. Jordan is more relatable than Lebron tbh. How many’s are 6’9 250+ with the speed, athleticism, passing and scoring that Lebron possesses nowadays??
@@sosaraycharles358 A guy that cries on the floor, flops, travels on every drive and desn't have any post moves or go to moves? No one, wants to be like that.
@@sosaraycharles358 there are a lot with more endurance who play both sides of the floor. even jokic is an overall better athelete.
what use has a guy who cant defend shit anymore?
@@Marlowe10100 bro you don’t score 40k points and have the most All NBA selections ever if you aren’t offensively skilled.
@@sosaraycharles358 is it?
Or is it that James has no bag, no fundamentals, and a horrible shot?
He was a great athlete, so much so he fooled most people into believing he was a good basketball player.
And now that his physical skills are waning, he has been severely exposed and is showing everyone his complete lack of actual basketball skills.
Mike did things no one has ever done, as a guard.
And that is why he is the GOAT, and who everyone is compared to, not just in basketball.
Your cap is duly noted, as is your Stanzboys status.
I watched the Bull since one year before MJ got drafted. I don't remember him ever being as disrespectful as Ant. Maybe it was his upbringing or him playing for Dean Smith and Bob Knight, but MJ was always classy to the opposing stadium's fans and if he trash-talked, it was to an individual player and you barely caught wind of it. People need to stop this comparison, man.
It's not fair to Edwards or Jordan. Ant has that killer instinct MJ, Kobe and DWade had. Instead of just appreciating what the young man is doing, the media has to do the Jordan thing. It's tired, it's annoying. Let's rate these guys at the end. It's a total resume thing and you can't just say a guy is Jordan or Magic or any all time great. Just let them play and celebrate greatness.
Ant would cook that boy dwade easily
That's exactly what ESPN is after, turning MJ fans against AE, so we leave Lebron alone. I love MJ and AE, and I don't need to choose a goat, I just like how they both play.
@@ByGraceThroughFaith777 Ant himself said he doesnt want the comparisons so ESPN not Ant will get all the backlash unlike the Burger King who's refusing to retire so he can stat pad and push more false narratives thru his pod
@@solidsnake8331 Lol Ant is closer to Wade than MJ 🤷🏽♂️
D Wade was a bad man on the court.
When you have different people on different shows and different channels repeating the same talking points, then you know exactly what's going on.
They tried this narrative with Jimmy Butler last year.
Imagine if MJ got to play with 2 top big men as well.
Ant was saved in game 7 by every teammate, that's very jordanesque😂😂😂
You are falling pray to espn agenda to turn MJ fans against AE.
Last 3 games Ant scored 18,27,16. I love ant he is a great player but it’s just disrespectful to compare him to MJ with these splits
@@JustLikeYou. Add last night's 19 points for the supposed next MJ
@@85pearlboy crazy right?
@@JustLikeYou.Indeed man, look, Ant-Man is great, but in the playoffs, Jordan ALWAYS was the best bull player, even when he lost to the Celtics or the Pistons by example, he was the best player of the series, I mean, if great Larry Bird calls you a god in your second season, that truly means something, meanwhile Ant-Man (I might be wrong) has had more off playoff nights than Jordan in his whole career
As usual, they’re going too fast and need to pump the brakes. No wonder Ant wants them to stop comparing, he knew they’d say some dumb shit
To be fair, the last player to be compared to LeBron James was BEN SIMMONS! 😂🤣😂
Edwards got carried to the Western Conference Finals while going 6/24. The NBA media has lost their damn minds.
i THANK YOU, "Uncut Hoops", FOR KEEPIN IT REAL.
Edward's and his team have faced no opponent who was as strong as Jordan faced from 1985 through 1990 in Boston, Detroit, Atlanta, Milwaukee, and Philadelphia.
Mike set the bar so hight it’s almost unreachable.
And we're only comparing numbers. Not to mention how slasher-friendly the league is today, compared to the late 80s.
Edwards is playing with the DPOY, 6th man of the year, another Allstar, teammate of the year and a good bench. They don't mention that when they bring up MJ's name.
What the NBA needs is rivalry. What is going on with all this hugging and wine drinking?
88 version of MJ is literally the top MJ just haven't win a chip yet. MVP, Steals leader, Scoring Leader, DPOY, 200 Block 100 steal monster stat, All star MVP, Dunk Champion. Seriously Ant is not close.
1988 MJ is the best individual season in NBA history…ESPN is completely out of their minds.
M.J. deserves to get paid every time the lame steam sports media uses his name .
Bro Edwards greatest season outside of a ring will probably still not even compare to MJ rookie season alone.. 😂..
Edwards is a little too clownish right now... he needs to be meaner
ESPN has turned into a political diversity woke network, not a sports network.
It was always the mirror of the USA mentality. Since they are "woke", they are the biggest racists on Planet earth. Just like the whole nba is. The racism against Whites is getting New highs. But Americans dont see that......
that racist shit aint woke bro
Look at who owns ESPN. Disney. Enough said.
You obviously have a problem with black people looking at all the anti black comments on any video talking about a black athlete... people like you can't even define woke without sounding like fox news
ESPN is a tabloid, they are the TMZ of sports media. I wouldn't be surprised if they hired P. Diddy and Kim Kardashian as NBA analysts.
Wolves fan here. Absolutely love Edwards. But he is not MJ. There is and only ever will be one MJ.
When I was 10 in 6th grade church basketball people thought I was the next white Jordan. Now I’m 29 with hemorrhoids
Le Barbie has transcended this time into the “trash “ era!
Brian Windhorst reminds me of an ‘05 Ralphie May…but without the personality and joke telling ability
Ant has been great this year. But no. Just...no. Stop it. Get some help.
When i was a small child kids would talk about MJ like he was a literal superhero, not just admiration or fascination, but a reverence.
Jordan is so ahead of everybody it ain't even funny.
How could lebron be the goat when everyone's comparing newbs to jordan? "he's the lebron of this or that" ?.. Never.... I've even heard "he's the micheal jackson of this or that" 🤷🏽
Harold Miner was the true next Michael Jordan
len bias was gonna be the closest thing to mj, rip.
I was gonna say this, and Grant Hill.
@@jansmitowiczauthor78and penny hardaway, and Vince Carter, and Kobe Bryant, and tmac, and Jerry stackhouse, and Andrew Wiggins, and Deshawn Stevenson, and Allen iverson, and d wade, and Westbrook, and oladipo, and kawhi Leonard, and Michael Finley, and of course the most ridiculous of all… lebronze James
They act as if Jordan came into the league at 18 when they say he aint win a series at 25
Edwards is more like leflop considering the treatment he's getting. Never even been to a finals and is getting Jordan comparisons.
Not ants fault though he can't stop ppl from talking Bron encouraged it
3:57 2024 on graphic*
He’s comparing Goose’s time traveling.
Kawhi looked like Jordan vs the Warriors during the playoffs. And then he got injured by Zaza Pachula.
The thing is, to be the next jordan, not only do they have to win, have skill, and a ferocious mindset, they have to have the swag jordan had too. He was smooth with it
Lots of "Next MJ" failed but no one beats Ben _"Jumpshot away from Lebron"_ Simmons.
The guy failed due to FT.
Ironically Lebron doesn't have a jumpshot
@leonardjackson6210 Doesn't have a jumpshot, but he shot 41% from 3 in season 21?
@@BBallGOAT Yea how'd that work out against Denver. The man shoots 37 percent outside of 3 to 5 feet. Has no midrange terrible handles and is a turnover machine
@@leonardjackson6210 LeBron was on an inferior team against the defending champions
@@BBallGOAT Inferior team. He had AD who's and allstar and competent role players. Joker is the only allstar on his team. Lebron didn't have an Inferior team he's just not that good. Doesn't matter your 3pt percentage if you can't hit the wide open ones when it matters
Never will any sport ever see an athlete, a competitor, or a WINNER like MJ.
People have more chips and personal accolades, but no person had his true winners mentality or the fire to win at any cost. Hence why he is the gold standard still to this day.
Thank you. This is what I am talking about. The media needs to stop with the MJ comparison.
I'm really surprised Grant Hill isn't mentioned more before the injuries. HE WAS A BEAST!!!🏀🏀🏀
Thanks for giving grounded context for the insanity on any bball news outlet these days. haven’t been able to turn on a sports show in over a decade, and it was terrible even then. But the extent it’s gotten to is Orwellian levels of misinformation.
If you adjust for pace, the gap will be even greater.
I wish big media would just let these players careers play out. In every sport they’re always projecting and forcing the next goat or next dynasty. Let it play out then discuss when it’s over. Just enjoy the moment! Players can get hurt, teams can break up, etc.
Man is chilling and enjoying life while living rent free in those guys mind. He retired 2 decades ago and they still talk about him.
You know what you do that i hate but is also a reason I sub? I'll be in the middle of writing a comment on an aspect I think you're missing and mid sentence, you hit that exact point. 👏🏿👏🏿
Jordan had already won a College Championship and a Olympic Gold before he even hit the league...theres no way Antman is in his league
yes AND he beat that team of NBA all stars eight games to zero in the 1984 pre olympic scrimmages. as a COLLEGE PLAYER
“Stop it….get some help” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This was good man. Thanks for posting.
Uncut hoops you have my respect, bringing straight facts
Sports media is so toxic now. I just shut it off and won't tune in anymore.
How come we never hear “ who’s the next Lebron? 🤷🏻♂️
Jordan one hand steal is ridiculous…
I like AntMan, but the form of Jordan he is closest too is the 2001 version of Jordan before he tour his meniscus injury. Just being honest because here are the facts ] In the 46 games that Jordan played before the injury, he averaged per game 25.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.5 steals, and 0.5 blocks on 42% shooting. Jordan's numbers were also improving as the season went on, as in his last 20 games up to the injury he averaged per game 27.5 points, 6.4 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.3 steals, and 0.5 blocks on 44% shooting, and in his last 10 games up to the injury he averaged per game 29.7 points, 6.6 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 1.2 steals, and 0.3 blocks on 47% shooting.[54] Before the injury, Jordan was considered an MVP contender at the age of 38 for what could have been a record-tying 6th MVP award! People just don't understand no one is ever coming close to MJ! Also Jordan had 8 40 points games on the wizards twice after the age of 40 and 1 50 point game with the wizards!
Over 1 bpg for a perimeter player is crazy. It's like the inflated stats future pros get in high school where you know at the next level they'll even out to 'decent' numbers. Then, when they're pros, they either average a career triple-single off the bench or get numbers similar to their college production overseas.
Great bounce back from last video! This is more like it
LOL I love the "stop it get some help" 😂
Love the thumbnail with Jonah Hill and MJ.
These sports shows have to have something to talk about plain and simple. Comparisons to the 🐐 are never going to end. Not in our lifetime or to the end of time for that matter.
Comparisons need to stop until someone wins similar individual accolades to 80’s MJ.
They are trying to do the same to tom brady and he just retired
Im so glad we have content creators that can counter the narrative of mainstream sports media
"Stop it get some help"😂😂😂
Is this the only content this guy uploads now? Like GOD DAMN 😆
MJ is unique , till this day nobody is at his level.
I'm seeing the '24 version of ANTMAN!
The times is so different so its hard to compare numbers properly.
Windhorst couldn't lead the league in getting donuts for Lebron!
We had another MJ, and his name was Kobe
He retired in 2003 and his name is still being spoken to this day should give folks an idea how great he and his team was.
This is why videos like this is so important. I like Ant & he's on his way to greatness, but it's blasphemy to compare him to a 88 or 89 Jordan. As a sports fans, it's crucial to understand how mainstream media is pushed by agendas & finding different outlets that offset the propaganda.
No. Just no.
It will never be another Jordan and i was there as kid to see him as his greatness happened
His playoff stats alone are mind boggling!
