We haven't had another MJ since Kobe, now Ant is that dude.
PERIOD!!!!!
Kawhi is pretty close to
Kobe close in skills but not athletic prowess that Ant is
I see Ant being a lot more like Kobe. Jordan’s athleticism was on a whole different level.
@@BGeezy4sheezy nah..ant's athlecism is close to MJ's lol
He even has a similar build to 89-92 Mj
2+3 = 5 🎉ANT MAN
Underrated comment
Bird was notorious for telling you what he was gonna do and then doing it anyway.
Bird trash
FOH! Jordan torched Bird for 63 points at TWENTY THREE years old and all Bird could do was say Jordan is God.
@@NelsonLovell Who won that series?
@@PaulJackson729 don't care. In the conversation of who talks the most trash and makes you eat it, Bird sitting this one out. No trash talker ever called their opponent God after they got spanked 1on1 😷
@@NelsonLovell It’s true but MJ had to learn what Bird & Magic already knew which was how to get the best out of their teams as opposed to doing it all. Isiah Thomas himself said that once MJ learned how to be a team leader, in terms of getting other involved, it was a wrap. Though I get that the Bulls were weak in the 80s bar MJ, it was a steady process
I been sayin he the next mj. Even from a marketing perspective domestically and internationally, bro is the next american superhero 💪
Naw mj was more charismatic tbh but he can get there
@@replicacity92u must be high if you think mj is more charismatic then ant u clearly haven’t watched ant vids😂
@@replicacity92ant is easily more cool and charismatic by far he’s like a high school kid 😂
There's no next MJ. You can't be someone else.
@@replicacity92 u must be talking about jackson cuz ik u ain’t talking about jordan 😂😂
Kobe was trying to be like Mike and ant is just being himself but happens to be like Mike naturally
Ant is definitely tryna be like Mike look the arm and leg wear come on
@@JalenToyer his favorite player is kd thou.. lol pluss mj is way before his time
If you think Ant = MJ because of 1 series in the first round than you = 🤡
@@leraj1639just because he’s way before his time doesn’t mean anything. Everyone has UA-cam and you can get inspired by anyone
@@replicacity92 Your absolutely correct.
However like I said growing up ants favorite player was kevin Durant. He watched live games of KD.
When I watch ants game I don't get the impression that he's trying to be like Mike his game is just so natural and just so happens to be similar to mj
However kobe definitely patent his entire game like mj. He studied his game to the T because that was kobe favorite player
I pray!!!!!! ant stays healthy! Take care of his body! Stay humble but confident!! He going places.
MJs son Jimmy is out so his other son Ant is coming!
You guys trying to push this?Jimmy thing so bad jimmy does not have the same talent level as ant or m j
@Daveyjdigital that's not why they call Jimmy MJ son man. Has nothing to do with basketball
@@Daveyjdigital
Man, WHAT? 🤦 Butler IS ELITE. Ant... or multiple other "superstars" haven't led their team to multiple deep playoff runs or finals, like Butler.
And Jimmy Butler has MJ's MENTALITY. PERSONALITY. GEEZ.
Thats what some people are comparing between the two.
I don't know why many act so ignorant to some thing Stevie Wonder could see. 🤦
@@db-hj9cubutler is elite until it’s time to actually win
@@Daveyjdigital but this is fact. everbody knows
ANTHONY EDWARDS IS THE PERFECT SPECIMEN
Marry him
Looks like I need to start watching Timberwolves games!
If you want to see what complete basketball looks like… Timberwolves play great defense, play great offense, get steals, has star player, has physicality, and more… so fun to watch
Don't fade the Wolves
Keep sleeping
probably fewer distractions too
You are waaaaaaaaay late to the party lol
Can we stop the comparison and let him be Ant
Exactly. I'm so sick of this.
They are so desperate to keep Jordan's name relevant.
No. Go antman!!
No....
Facts 😤😤😤 I like the kid and all., But cmon man stop this fuckin BS 💯💯
Anthony Edwards is Michael Jordan 2.0
Your dreaming to much kid
Its alright i’ll let you be
No Anthony Edwards is just Ant-Man, Michael Jordan was MJ.
MJ without even trying, just crazy. Even their mannerisms.
He’s not.
no
We finally have a player that’ll tell you TO YOUR FACE AND BACK IT UP
Jordan was in Chicago and it was cold there too.... Why the best always play in cold weather? Lol besides LA
Because they are the toughest.
Cold blooded killers
Cold gives you lots of energy and it’s very good for your blood flow and immune system.
cold weather makes you hard
Lakers were also in Minneapolis and won their first 5 chips too.😂
Damn I can't belive this is real life. As a Minnesotan.. never actually thought it would happen to us.
Edwards is MJ. The jump shots so much comparison the attitude. Been watching NBA since 90s and Edwards is closest to MJ style and showing it big. This dude is coming to take over NBA.
Finally happy to see a player bring it. Take on the challenge and talk ...back it up and play hard. Think it's the way he moves that reminds plp of MJ. MJ had the huge mitts like Phil Jackson used to say.
Crazy how he looks like Jordan when playing
No one is saying he's going to be as great is MJ when he calls it a career. BUT his game looks and feels very MJ. He does have that MJ Aura on the court.
Ant is a real one. The NBA should be focusing on talents like him instead of LeBalco. Can’t wait for that flopper to retire.
Bron about 50 bro
Haha Edwards make us forget about the cold too. Minnesota is cold but you missed out on the rarest winters. We barely had any snow and the average was in the 40s all winter. It must be our season ;)
Kinda demonstrates how Jordan's game would still dominate in today's game... especially with the NBA allowing the "zero step" which would give Jordan one more step than when he played.
The funny thing is Stephen said he called MJ and tried to make it seem like he was the first one but Chris brousard said this almost a month ago 😂😂😂
nah are you serious lmao. you think multiple people cant call someone for an opinion or something.
@@aidan9563 I didn't say that I said he act like he the first one to say when Mike already told Chris he does see comparison
he is the reincarnation of of MJ in his first 7 years
Most of downtown Minneapolis is connected by the Skyway. If you follow the arrows, you never even have to go outside.
Ant plays with heart, not afraid of the moment, very athletic and takes defense seriously. Its hard not to see mj in him.
W STEPHEN A SMITH
Hey Steven A, it’s nice here in June 😎
I know where you're going with that comment and I absolutely love it.
2:04 NO DIDDYYYYY!!!!!😷🤣☠️
It brings tears to my eyes man. Magic handed it to MJ who took it and flew. MJ left it in more than capable hands with Bean. Lebron let us all down with this era of politics and superteams. Now we have a worthy Heir and his name is Anthony Edwards. Grandson of Magic, Son of MJ and brother of Kobe.
I mean he and Jimmy Butler are Jordan’s sons 😂
Stop glazing butler. He’s not even close to ANT level
@@Astelchdidn’t know speaking facts was glazing
@@icetray2727 Butler can only play10-15 games a season and even that he failed this year. Yall keep gassing him up he cant ball out on a daily basis like ANT.
@@AstelchThank you.I think it is heat fans.Jimmy doesn't even have talent nowhere close.He can work hard all he wants.That's not enough
Jimmy Bumler is a poor mans MJ. He's more like the adopted son who won't ever get recognized. He's nothing like MJ and those Finals losses and his performances prove it including his 12 points Game 6 in 2020 and 13 points in Game 1 2023. Don't mention bum and MJ in the same sentence again.
SAS - your show is better than first take … keep going!!
hey Stephen if it was between mj and antony Edwards same age who would you pick to be the leader,the superstar in your team?
This made me subscribed!
Ant-Man destroyed his Idol... and let him know about it... That's Mega Star In the Making... I agree with you Steven A... Talking Smak and Backin' it, is the fundamental art of Greatness and competition... Essentially, it's like playing H.O.R.S.E on 5 on 5. Truly Incredible.
Steven A... Convince this brother man, that he is the Future... The New Face Of The League. I have not bought a Jersy since the 90's my brother... Athony Edwards will break that streak.
The Best Starting 5 Of All Time.
THE NBA OF THE GALAXY
Step Curry
Michael Jordan
Lebron James
Tim Duncan
Shaq Prime
THE AVENGERS
Athony Edwards....
I need four more players in a seeable future now…
To be continued...
Part of the way Edward’s plays reminds me of Bird too
0:15 Listen to this YAH YAH YAH WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO GREATNESS LOOK LOOK EM LOOK EM LOOK EM
I respect that Stephen A, I see Jordan and Kobe all day in him absolutely 🧾
3 point line was moved in in 92 dont forget that but hey 3 points is 3 points whatever ANT is a far better 3 point shooter
It would be embarrassing if he wasn't.
What?. No, the 3pt line was not moved in 1992. They moved it in 94-95 season, making it a foot shorter then Moved it back to its original distance in 97-98 season.
No one is debating who the better 3 pt shooter is. 3 pt shooting really wasn't Jordans thing which makes it even more impressive.
If you're going to throw fact outs bro, get them right.
@@AB1B1 the line was moved in get off jordans nuts bro we all know jordan aint no 3 pt shooter bro that was fucking rigged look at his career 3pt pecentage if he was capable of shooting that many 3s from that distance then how come he keeps missing the wide open shots bro. Get a clue bro the line was moved in 2 years before they annonced it if you dont believe it thats your problem.
Mr Smith what brand name of that sweatsuit please??? Thanks
STAY OF THE WEEEEEDUHH!!
ant is definitely the closest thing ive seen since jordan coming str8 from rookie str8 to a franchise player just like mj has that fire to win like mj went to the world cup an was the main guy missed alot early but never has no let up like mj this is him quickness elevation already has the fade and fall away he is him. note i never followed nba after jordan so never saw kobe but this kid is him.
Omg we not going to be doing this another 20 years please with this goat talk
we? turn off youtube.. its happening.. stop crying about what you choose to see
People will always compare people to MJ. He is that good
@@keithstone6411 I get that he alright he still no where near on Jordan level
@@Blazenetwork1990 he is a beast for sure, can’t wait to see what he does in the league.
They have similar mannerisms on the court. And plus Edwards got hops just like Mike
Tellllleeeemmmmmm Stephen AAAAA !!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow your awesome when you see things the way I do, just nice hearing it come from you
He reminds me of Derek Rose before the injury.
U bugging bro
That's more of ja morant
He needs to get past Denver first.
Minnesota
Did SAS really just try to Dim Kobes light to make Ants look brighter 🤦♂️ Win at least 2 Chips before bringing up Kobes name please and thank you!
While I would like Anthony Edwards to be a better playmaker, I can't deny his talent and ability to absolutely turn it on and cook, when he is hot he can be the best player on the court against any opponent, and that is something I absolutely respect, I mean he doesn't really even need to be a better playmaker, he is a 2 guard for a reason, I just think sometimes he can get so fixated on scoring the ball that he forgets he can pass the ball to someone else, withe more experience he will literally be a Kobe or MJ like player, he at least has the talent to do so, and from what we are seeing from him the mentality as well, I have been skeptical of him because other than Kobe and MJ iso players have never been the best players on championship teams, and both MJ and Kobe both had another person to play off of in Pippen and Gasol, but Ant has proven me wrong completely and I do believe that in his career he will be able to at least contend for championships multiple times, I do believe OKC vs Timberwolves can be a good budding rivalry in the west, unfortunately I don't think they will meet in the playoffs this year because the Nuggets, Mavs and Clippers are all very capable of going to the conference finals instead of them.
I’m a Pacers fan but I’ve been watching those T-Wolves because of that bad man 😂🔥
I’m from Minnesota and not a NBA fan but the first time I saw the ANT play I thought he could be the most dynamic player I ever saw in a Timberwolves jersey.No disrespect to Garnett though.They need to keep him there for the next 10 years!
With freedom of movement and no calls
1.5 points is Stephen A Smiths new name From Barkley & Shaq😂
Kobe didn't talk? He bet 500k he'd make a free throw and told grown men he didn't respect their work ethic
MJ was more athletic but Ant is basically how MJ would play today but probably average 40ppg
Its not cold in june when hes holding the LOB
Yeah buddy 😂
HE'S A SPECIAL DOG, ~ A SPECIAL LEAD DOG! FEELING SAD FOR THE DOGS BEHIND >>> BECAUSE, THE VIEW NEVER CHANGES ! ANTHONY EDWARDO ! LIKE A FINE CUBAN CIGAR !
Anthony has the skills on the court and the charisma off the court. One championship and that’s the new face of the NBA.
Stephen A is the ghetto basketball poet
His descriptions are box office
He is box office
Minnesota isn’t cold this time of year. You should come during the summer sometime. It will change your perspective of Minnesota. You’ll understand why Ant and Naz Reid and KAT love it here.
Bandwagoner 😂
I actually agree with Stephen A on this one lol. The dude did show up and backed his words. A sweep is a sweep and Phoenix has great players.
It’s spring and summer during the nba playoffs it’s not even cold really in Minnesota right now lol
"A-1 from day 1"
Ant Man
That fadeaway though 😮
Anthony E. Is The Young Billy Goat Not Full Grown Goat Yet!! He's Coming !!! Stay Tuned FOLKS!!
MJ the BILLY GOAT himself CO-SIGNED Ant man?!?! 🤔
There are FEW compliments in basketball higher then that!
Brian will never be ready for Giovante davis
AG is not KD.We'll see how he will handle Ant
Ah yah! Yah! Yah! That really was how epic MJ was!!
Ant Edward’s is the man. But we’re forgetting about Kobe and D Wade.
1:45 !!
1:41 pause 😂
For anyone who understands that ANT is the next Jordan and Kobe. You need to understand it's not that he is being compared to those guys or that he is trying to be those guys. He is simply carrying on in their tradition and carrying that torch. We've been waiting for the next guy after Kobe retired. Kobe never made it to the level of MJ but if we wanted to watch MJ after retirement Kobe was the closest thing. ANT is the closest thing as well to those guys. Especially when it comes to the mentality. So far hes proving that he's not just a one time buzz. Hes been improving year after year. He is only 22 years old and he's leading his team in the playoffs.
He does have the killer instinct I seen it. This brother is on another level right now. Suns is a good way to showcase what he got but the true challenge is how far and how long will he keep this up
Minnesota not cold at all during the summer. Gotta kill that narrative.
Duh! But they dont play NBA in summer bruh.
That brother is coming..... pause SAS😅
Ant-Man playing like "Herringbone Mike". The "Young Caesar cut" Mike. Homie is special.
No, if you look closely at Anthony Edwards, he took the best from Penny Hardaway, MJ, Kobe, Vince, and T-Mac.
Because he did this, he became his own variation of dominance.
Don't compare him to those before him, he honored them by taking good from all of them to form something new.
🔥🔥🔥
This is annoying because he’s been playing like this all year, but now all of a sudden “he’s my favorite player” smh
This a bold statement let’s see how this plays out first
I finally agree with Stephen 😂
Ant is the truth
He is a savage and I love the comparison. But the series is not done yet. Let us see how KD reacts to being in this predicament first, then we can proceed.
4-0
Let Ant be Ant. Similarities are just that SIMILARITIES. I enjoy watching him play but give him room to win AND lose. He has a bright future and I'm enjoying his journey.
Guys we have our man...he has the potential and the attitude !THAT FKING ATTITTUDE.HE FGKING KNOWS!
Jokic is a mix of Magic and Kareem
GO AE!!
HOWLS UP IN THAT MF CHAAAAAAAT
🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
The league will be in great hands. Him wembanyama, and Luca
Lets see if he can play well during this series first.
There are 2 guards on the Suns who can light it up themselves.
Imagine MJs master plan to continue as the greatest of all time was that he spread his seed constantly around the country and all these players with MJ-like mentalities are actually all his kids and prospects to become the next goat.
Come back to MN when we’re in the finals then you’ll see the most beautiful place in the U.S. In June #lakelife
What people don’t realize is that he’s doing it in a league that has aliens in it now 😂😂 the talent is way better than the 90s
That's Clifford Robinson tho
How can you compare that he didn't even take one championship!?!?.
Winners have a certain glare in their eyes and Edwards has it
MJ is MJ. Ant is Ant. That simple... A lot of similarity in their plays, but they are two individuality.
Whoever saying Ant is the next Jordan can't possibly be a Jordan fan or really don't know anything about Jordans game. D wade or kobe maybe but not Jordan, its levels to this shit
Ant Man is a Leo so he was meant to be on the stage. Leos shine in the light and grow even more confident when the pressure is on. You also highlighted his charisma and smile, two other traits ruled by Leo.
