Ant dunked on Collins so hard Collins left with a concussion . . . I have never seen that before. Ridiculous.
Da ts that’s was crazy 😂
He got smacked in the face + poked in the eye, that's how ant dislocated his finger... no one can see that?
Oooor he poked collins n the face so hard smh
It wasn’t a concussion
@@sirwavealot3602 him tryin to block with his face is crazy 😂
they heavily edited his reaction😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
lol I thought I was bugging 😂
Lmfao they had to bro went 100% authentic 😭😭
Did he really say people don’t remember how good Vince Carter was as a in game dunker , bruh that’s all people remember to the point It
Overshadows how good he was as a ball player
facts
I think people sometimes tend to think more of his Dunk Contest stuff more than his in-game stuff, but man, he had some BEAUTIES in-game too. That dunk on Zo was ludicrous!!
With all credit due, Vince Carter improved his jumpshot and 3pt game later in his career.
The face of the league is wemby
Stephen A Smith has a showdown with Batman after today's show...
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Lol
😂😂😂
Lmao 😭
I’m proud to live in Minnesota now 😂
Blake griffin was crazy work too posterizing folks in his prime
Imo he is the best in game dunker
Half of his weren’t even dunks. Nor was THIS. Entire generations of greats called these LAYUPS.
@@only1adonislol ok, then ants dunk vs collins wasn't a dunk too.. I bet you never dunked on a regulated rim ever. Fisher price don't count
@@only1adonisno one cares whether it's a dunk or a throwdown, it's about how cool it looks.
@@KvngSmoochie_ Nah, that would be Vince and I doubt he'll ever be topped since he has the single greatest dunk of all time
Salute to Unc for Shawn Kemp..first name that came to my mind
Collins pretending to be hurt in order to hide the shame😂
Pretending to be hurt only adds to the humiliation lol
IDIOCRACY CONFIRMED. PRETENDING to be hurt would make it worse. Collins himself is one of the NBA’s best dunkers. NOT shot blockers. He knows the business. Respect to all blockers/defenders.
@@Onemore984EXACTLY! IDIOCRACY CONFIRMED. PRETENDING to be hurt would make it worse. Collins himself is one of the NBA’s best dunkers. NOT shot blockers. He knows the business. Respect to all blockers/defenders.
Ngl bro I’d do the same thing 😭
Better than getting tea bagged at the rim. Ayo pause.
Thank you for Realizing this . Anthony Edwards is must see box office. Megastar potential
🔥🔥🔥
Get your popcorn ready 🍿
Ant is great but he won't be the face of the league over Wemby, now that alien is MUST SEE TV.. that kid will dominate the league if they put a team around him
They’re not marketing him like they should be.
@@YungJay216they honestly are rn
The 1 against Miami when Jimmy Butler was watching from the bench in awh
Watching in AWE (as in AWESOME).. not AWH (what the F are you thinking and which elementary school did you drop out of? IDIOCRACY CONFIRMED. Educate yourself. Zero excuses. Be better.
@@only1adonis calm down we know what he meant
Jj hit it when he said "they won at the highest level and are cold blooded killers"
WHO doesn't realize that Vince Carter was a great in-game dunker?? SAS you're wrong.
SAS loves creating false narratives its so shameless
For real 😂😂😂
The dunk he had on Zo was disgusting
Like, we understand so much that comparing ant to him now is insulting... And I really love ant.
Bruh why do ppl still think he was talking about John Collins in regards to giving his jersey to? He was talkin bout Colin Sexton who he grew up with down south playing
Bruh not everyone knows quit bitching
he isn't bitching he is stating a fact. Stop mouth breathing. @@SPACEKNOCKERZ76
that man said he gotta give it to COLLINS , not no dam Colin sexton tf you talkin bout
because he dunked on a guy with the last name collins, dummy
@@chrisstoogoated5777 you’re an idiot, sexton had the jersey in the post game interviews
Anthony Edwards vertical is ridiculous.
The offensive foul he got away with was more ridiculous.
Dominique Wilkins is in my top 3 in-game dunkers of all time
Whose your other 2?
Vince and MJ definitely there
Gerald Green is always slept on.
@@mirali7488 he was nasty 💯
Jeff Green up there, he been postering ppl from 07-
Ya know...the last guy labeled the Human Highlight Reel was a Bulldog also! DGD GO DAWGS!
Pippen dunk over ewing was shameful
That was NASTY!!! animosity at its highest level
That was, but it wasn’t this.
Pippen's dunk was actually a dunk
I seen that live😂😂
@@tonybridgeforth4188True- THIS isn’t THAT… because THIS wasn’t even a dunk. And Collins is one of the league’s best dunkers. Not blockers. Pippen over Ewing was worse. Not just the dunk. But the circumstances.
Don’t forget about Blake griffin a great in game dunker too
Shannon said when the cats away the mice will play😂😂😂😂
I heard that too like sheesh!!!
Russ was a phenomenal in game dunker aswell
Definitely
Can the media stop pushing the whole face of the league thing, I don't think there's gonna a sole individual that's gonna carry that title
Most of the media desperately wants the face of the league to be American. lol
Lebron was for a long time , curry was making his way up and was for a bit . It’s now Jokic and guys like Wemby, Ant, Ja, Tatum and Luka are definitely future MVPs with this type of consistent showing from the beginning of their careers. They will be the faces. Giannis is up there too but in a KD-like position , not the face , but not to be taken lightly. He did have his years tho just like when KD was a walking 30 piece.
@cjryuk1909: The league usually gets a face, which is why they’re talking about it. Some points of time it can be 2 faces of the league but people like Magic & Bird (same time), Michael Jordan, Shaq, Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, & then we had Steph (same time as Lebron around 2015).
So thinking that there’s going to be a new face of the league isn't really crazy, now could this be a point in which no player gets a ton of separation sure & maybe that’s a good thing for the league to promote parity & not be so championship focused. Still the league usually thrives with a face which is why they’re looking for one with Lebron & Steph getting older, with that said you can’t force it. It’ll often happens naturally
They're trying hard to push an American. They know the euros are killing and don't wanna hear it.
You cant be the face of the league if you're not winning championships, Bird Magic MJ Kobe Shaq LeBron Steph they all won multiple championships, face of the league comes with championships and FMVP's
Shawn Kemp was a Dawg
My favorite player growing up lol
Yes sur KEMP!!!! Was a monster !!
I think Ant-Man has the charisma, the game, the moxy, the look, AND the cool nickname to be the face of the NBA. He's got it all. Time will tell. Right now he's a top candidate.
He is box office 🚀
Saw him against the clippers last week… even more impressive in person.
Don't forget he's 235lbs, strong as an ox! Even if you challenge him, he's got the strength to dunk threw you.
Wow that’s big.
Personality is a huge factor of mindset, work ethic ,and talent also understanding the value of right and wrong.
That was old school!!! Shawn Kemp/ Vince Carter type of murder!!!
He Got Plenty Highlights But This 1 Was Wild
What is Shannon talking about a skills challenge at the all star game that man is serious to the games that matter
He threw that ball in 😂😂😂😂
Yo the one a couple days ago on AD he missed it tho but OMG!!!!
Collin left in a body bag! The funeral is next week!! Lol
Just like my floor spacing slasher 😂
2k is trash the title is dead don’t ever lie like that again and I have had a 75+ win % SINCE 2014 I also make content on it AMD I DELETED THE WHOLE GAME FROM MY CONSOLE BC ITS LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE NOW ITS A MONEY GRAB LASTLY YOU CAN DUNK ON SOMEONE W A METTER IT TOOK ALL THE SKILL OF DUNKING ON PEOPLE OUT THE GAME
@@2KBPoliteDior who the heII cares🤣
@@2KBPoliteDiorgrow up
Facts lol
That was an amazing...LAYUP.
I agree with Stephen A when it comes to Ant Man in his competitiveness!
He’s easily becoming one of the NBA favorites amongst fans and his competitive nature will rub off on the younger generation who see how some of these NBA stars act like divas while Ant Man is the complete opposite.
He’s refreshing to see and have in the game today and I hope he gets everything he’s earned and will earn in the league for years to come!! 🔥
Told you bruh I was waiting on this since I seen it
Ant man has the defensive play of the year, and the dunk of the year. The only reason he probably doesn’t have the offensive play of the year is because of Kyrie’s ridiculous game winner over Joker the other night.
They cut the best part of the ant interview out 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Just imagine. VC was jumping even higher in games
I agree Shannon that baseline dunk to me definitely was the best dunk to me
The interview was wild lol
People forget about Amare Stoudemire. He use to put defenders in body bags
Gerald Green is a recent in game dunker who was nasty with it
Ant a killer boy I love watching him play and I’m big lebron fan but when he retire Ant gone be my favorite player
Amar'e was my favorite in-game dunker
"The Reign Man" and "Vinsanity" are the Standard of in Game Dunkers
A put in!
THis years playoffs will be fireworks.
That man has a family Ant man have you no shame sir 😂
Everything Shannon said👍👍👍
They had to bleep all that out 😂😂 Ant is wild
The one on Gabe Vincent😬
Ngl I completely agree with UNC on this segment. You gotta bring that competitiveness even at all stars that way ppl know you're true to your craft along with gaining a certain level of mental dominance on your opponents after those all star situations
I agree w/ Shannon on Ant
“Shawn Kemp styyyyle”
Stoudemire was nasty too, when he played for Suns
It's time for new faces to step up.....Anthony Edwards is himmm!!! He's a unique baller with a people's personality!!! He's definitely next!!
Unc spitting FACTS
How do I become a member to use the chat?
A.E doesn't have to change his personality ...
All he needs is to keep improving his game nd stay on a super competitive team in his career.
I remember arguing with idiots telling you how good the wolves would be this year
you will be let down come playoff time. It’s the timberwolves way
What happens if they don’t make it past the second round ?? That would make you wrong so you still ain’t right till they do some good in the playoffs
@@2KBPoliteDiorwrong. It’s an unreal season and the twolves are here to stay. Still a young team.
@@nehzei5625 first great team we’ve had in 20 years literally. In 2018 jimmy got hurt at the end the season, we went from 3rd seed to 8th and had to play the juggernaut rockets. Last year if naz and jaden didn’t get injured we would’ve beat Denver and won it all
@@2KBPoliteDior if we make the 2nd round the season is already a success. Anything past that is a bonus
That's a throw in. Come on man
20 years from now, we will talk that dunk..top 20 of all time❤🎉🎉4
I hope his career not derailed by injuries because of his athleticism
Edwards is a beast!
Ant is athletic & skilled player he still grown in the future
When the cats away the mice will play 🤣🤣🤣
They didn’t put on his full quote tho 😂
I think the jersey was for Collin Sexton, who is also from Georgia like Ant.
As long as he stays humble and doesn't go full Morant, not mad at it
They forgot to say Gerald green in game was crazy
Ant mans mental and physical toughness is crazy.
The reign man
Blake gotta be in the conversation too
The smooth censorship of his full reaction is crazy
How much I love curry with the 3 pointers, nobody dunked like this since Blake Griffin I miss the baptisms lol
Collins family had to call in to check on him😂.
They might as well pass the torch to Edwards… dude is cold!!!!
He's got the likeablity factor and he plays both ways. Say what you want bout Luka but Ant has shut him down several times when the game was on the line.
He's next up.
@@BrendanSlob luka is better , stop it . I know you have a lot of pride being American, but that shouldn't keep you from being objective
No luka isn't better not close@@3self
@@3self Luka Stat pads in trash time and inflates stats, everyone knows it.
@BrendanSlob luka has never once stated padded. Ant is good but not on the lvl of guys like luka, jokic, or Giannis.
What about Dr.J? Especially when he dunked on Michael Cooper.
Baptism in 🔥 Fire! Give John a Purple Heart after he leaves the hospital.
Dont sleep on Jeff Green for in game dunking!!
Russ was insane too
Are we still done with the 90's because if you are, how could you enjoy enjoy this😏😂🤣
If you think about the faces of the nba most of them are in the top 10 of all time so whoever is next sga luka ant JT Wemby really need to have an impressive career
JJ be disagreeing with Shannon just to disagree 😂.
Ja Morant go crazy to tho ❤
JJ REDICK is one the Great things happen in ESPN
Nah when he put buddies head on his Sack in Miami was the best dunk man. Utterly disrespectful 😂
Ant Man more like T-Mac in his prime without the injuries
ant a 2 way player tho
Tmac was lazy , Ant play both ends
Wemby is probably destined to be the next face, but if Ant can win more chips he could take that away from him.
At this point they look the most likely
I need to know if he meant he was giving the jersey to John Collins or Collin Sexton 😂😂😂
I don’t want you thinking you catching nothing when we get back to the main land…classic line TIME
I wanna see him try that on Wemby or Mitch , the nba is in good hands with him Luka and dare I say 😮 Brunson
Edwards bent his finger the whole way and gave Collins a concussion. Enough said. Dunk of the year. The height was insane. No one can beat Carter with in play dunks but edwards is a ton of fun to watch.
Skip dying slow Out here without shannon😢😂😂🎉🎉😂😂
John the Baptist just got Baptized! MY LORD in heaven.
@StephenA can you imagine an Allstar dunk contest with Antman, Zion and Ja.
Shannon slightly mis-remembers the dunk that was waved off for an offensive foul. The dunk from his rookie year against Toronto counted. Edwards had a dunk against Miami waved off the next year.
That JORDAN attitude!!! Ant-man got that swag.
Shawn kemp, blake griffin, wade, kobe, vince, mj
Micheal Finley was nice too
