Kevin Garnett & Paul Pierce HEATED Debate Over Anthony Edwards Michael Jordan Comparison! 

KG said this shit mad long ago and he’s was pretty on point with analysis 🤷🏼‍♂️💯

Once KG explained himself he got a pass for saying that.

Anthony edwards reminds me of MJ

Anthony Edwards definitely have a lot of Michael Jordan movement. Even his style.

Bruh trash talked kd, then gave him a 30 piece for the sweep. That man is Anthony Jordan

Antman is just 22,let em grow he can pass all of em

Ant definitely reminds me of Jordan. Similar physical profiles, nth level athleticism, beautiful style of play, even his skin complexion. Still, there are marked differences of things that probably don't change much starting with: 1. Hand size. It's mentioned in this video and it definitely played a part in MJs ball fake ability, steals and ball handling/low turnover rate. In terms of outside shooting (where Ant is probably beyond Jordan) smaller hands work to Ant's advantage. 2. Primacy. Ant just doesn't shoot as much as Jordan did this early in his career. He still has nights where he'll go 6-14. Jordan's mentality was "at least go 6-25" and never stop shooting. It's probably because Ant's team is much better and more balanced than those early Bulls. KG is probably right that he may average 30 on a crappy team. His lack of extreme primacy may sometimes cause... 3. Inconsistency. Ant delivers most nights but he still has nights where he doesn't influence the game heavily. He has quarters or even halfs where if things aren't goin so well he'll fall to the back a bit. He can absolutely improve this part of his game. 4. Movement without the ball. Jordan got 3 years of Dean Smith. He knew how to get open in the midrange as much as the perimeter and with Ant playing in today's game, the emphasis is more on getting open for 3 pointers. Ant can and will improve here too. Also, at 4:17 that was Mel Turpin (not Mark Eaton) Jordan. dunked on, still a big man though. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tQdDfRV9-OE.htmlsi=4BWRMNeZe9FDzC7N

Anthony Edwards (2020 Draft Class) recently said about Patrick Beverly comparing himself (Anthony Edwards) to Michael Jordan, “I just want him to stop…..yea, it’s just because he (Michael Jordan) is the greatest to ever play basketball and I’m so far from it.” 🐐

Imagine if prime kg with edwards

Everybody comparing this man just let him ball

84 MJ was wild. man can contort and get shots/layups done. there was nothing like it. if you take 84 mj and drop him into todays game, it'll still be shit you've never seen. especially with the current defense and touch fouls. 84 MJ is literally the combination of Ant AND Morant (minus the missed dunk attempts lol)

Just in your opening statement. Yes, absolutely! I said the same thing He was reminding me of Jordan for sure. Ever bit as good as 84 Jordan

He is the MVP this year I can’t believe people ain’t screaming it. Spent most of the season on top of the WEST. Fighting for Number 1 seed until the last game with KAT missing half the season and nowhere near the talent Jokic, Alexander, or Giannis got. He is gonna get robbed this year.

Do you have the link for the original clip. Thanks

Even Jordan himself said there where similar in ways mostly the passion and competitiveness

Jordan dunked on Mel Turpin and asked the fan if he was bigger enough

Anthony Edwards's game is remarkable similar to MJ's. And he is getting better.

I understand the MJ comparison generates more hype but…What about Dominique Wilkins? He might end up being a great scorer and leaper. Jordan is just a for a select group which sums up to just Kobe. We had Harold Miner, Stackhouse, Vince Carter …. Definitely like watching him play but give it time to a player develop…. Specially now in these playoffs.

KG RIGHT ON THIS ONE !

I don’t know how you got that third wheel story about Jordan dunking on Mark Eaton. He didn’t dunked on Mark Eaton. He dunked over Melvin Turpin at Utah. 12/02/1987 - Cmon man, you gotta research 😮

It’s not blasphemous. A lot of us see it. IMO…his handles is his last step to becoming unstoppable.

what's song is the outro?

AE is super electric, alpha,dog, best new star in the league. Not MJ tho ,just let him be himself

"Mel Turpin" Utah Jazz - (is that one big enough for you) ;)

It wasn't Mark Eaton it was Mel Turpin Jordan dunked on.

There will never be another michael jordan never

Bro dunked on kd and Beal then blocked booker at the end even though they were up lmao that’s some Jordan shit man

These folk have to stop with these idiotic frivolous debates. Stop the damn nonsense. This crap is getting old. Its the same old foolishness.

I think Ant is every bit as good as 84 MJ. But I think Ant will start winning it all sooner because the league is way softer. There are no Bad Boys, Big3 Celtics and Showtime Magic to keep Ant in check for a little bit longer.

Antman is definitely sippin’ on the Jordan juice.

the only elephant in the room is injuries

😂😂😂 ticket right if he works on his game every year that's the equivalent of MJ and Kobe combined yeah i said it and im from the Chi Mj is my goat but damn that young man is impressive

Like they are calling Luka Larry Bird after a short stint in the league....respect the actual Legends

NOBODY IS MENTIONING LEBRON AT ALL!!😂😂

Ant has the tools, and the team around him to be great

I remember that Jordan dunk on Mark Eaton. Mark Eaton was damn near 7 foot plus

putting on my retro jerseys!!! 🎉😅

It wasn’t Mark Eaton it was Mel Turpin that Mike dunked on.

Don't compare nobody to MJ . There will never be another one. That's Ant Man. He's making his own name

I agree with kg...he even look like mike

Something's not right with KD. Paul knows too much for these crazy loud ogers. His knowledge from the office to the techniques on the court. I actually wish he had his own show for his analysis. I'd love to pick his brain without someone trying to be in a competition with him all the time.

Jordan started 85 he is not compared to no one he doesn’t have defense kyrie did what he wanted

Ant is Jordan now lol!!! He better never lose

But with Jordan it wasnt just skills. it was leadership and matureness also, of which none of these players have.

The comparison is not too far off base. As a 57 year old from Chicago I can tell you the biggest difference is only that MJ had worst teammates at that time and he was far more tenacious ob the defensive end. There are literally videos on RU-vid of Jordan's rookie seasons and the full games. It's unfortunate that today's generation have aversions to watching any video that is not in HD format. It's like they think watching such videos will blind them. I honestly think that many of their brain have toi much lag being able to process what they are viewing which is why theur attention spana are considerably shorter today than kids werw in the past. They have been raised in the highlight reel era. They believe if they see the video it tells them what was in the book. For example I read several books like the Color Purple long before the movie or plays came out. After watching the movies when they eventually came out the first thing I noticed was how much from the books the movies had to leave our in order to make the movie fit into a two hour runtime. Most of today's young NBA fans don't even watch full games od their favorite players. As Bulls fans back in the day we planned our day around watching the game that night.

A grown man shouldn’t be looking at another mans hand size (Yashua take the Wheel)

Speak the Truth KG!!

I see u seen my comment and mention hand size nowb

This dude say Jalen brown better then booker I can’t listening to this no more

KG got Paul in his feeling 😂😂

I'll just say he is one of incredibly few to get the MJ comparison and not be a disappointment. Even if his game didn't look like MJ's his mentality and pride in his defense would still draw the comparisons.

‘83 Drex better than ‘84 Jordan… Pierce really be hating sometimes

He definitely has some of the physical attributes, the attitude, and the competitiveness.

Everybody just done forgot about doninvin Mitchell

Regardless of.Love to watch him Play.He Is on his way

Minnesota assembled that old 87 Bulls team Bill Cartwright with his set shot ect…

It wasnt Mark Eden it was Mel

Dude you dont watch the games. You just watch highlights. He plays similar and he has their mine set. Watch full games before talking

KG love ANT. He needs some Wolves ownership

He has the potential to be one of them ones but don’t compare him yet let it come

This channel is WRONG EVERYBODY EVEN SAS IS COMPARING HIM TO MJ EVEN MJ SAID HE PLAYS LIKE ME YPUR WRONG DEFINITELY A GREAT COMPARISON

D Wade is a better comparison

I’m pretty sure ant man got gobert in practices

I see the comparison of the 84 Jordan.

Michael Jordan reminds me of AE.

Paul u think Jay Brown is better than Booker??!! Wow you go hard for you guys 😂😂😂😅

Compare them both in yr 4... jordan 10 more pts a game and made it to eastern conference finals

Lord? KG out here bangin now!?

I'm bout to clown right now, Anthony Edwards should be called, like the song in the 80's, AEIOU and sometimes 'y' , why are you owning us! Anthony Edwards is owning you and sometimes why, is he dominating everyone else in the league!

love KG but this shit gots to stop! let that youngMan walk in his own shoes & carry the weight of his own name & make his own mark on the game, he’s got the potential to be as Great as he wants to be…sports media gotta chill & let that Man write his own story….get’cha popcorn, sit down, STFU & watch the story unfold

He from UGA not Carolina

Jordan dunked over Mel Turpin not Mark Eaton in that game. Also 84 MJ won a gold medal and Olympic gold, he was way more tenacious, but i see how guards pattern themselves after MJ. MJ also used his athleticism much more.... layups, shots, and dunks

don't know about this conversation but Anthony Edwards will make Denver Nuggets miserable for sure

Bro just play the clip yall dudes just be wanting to hear yall selves talk

Anthony Edwards not like that

Bro I can tell your a casual 😂

He reminds me of Jordan yes because they play the same position same height and got some of the same moves but they don't have the same game Ant game is more like Pippen minus the defense

Mel Turpin not Big Mark Eaton

Bruh Eric Gordon is short at all lol

His hands ain’t big enough. Them hands when u look at em when he was on letterman. Is frightening. Jordan all day. The highlights prove it

Antman taller den 6’4

Im sorry but Edwards is extremely gifted on both sides of the ball a real dawg more dawg than kobe , watch out

That wasn't Mark Eaton

Actually mike is the leader. Mike keep everyone is in line

Way to go kg that is awesome 😎

You know he’s from Georgia right and jaylen brown we’re built different down here

it ain't really much to know bout thess folks

Ngl bro on that goat path

It's easy to see him as a modern MJ reincarnate. It's not a lazy comparison like it has been the last 30 yrs. He's like a Marvel comics "What If?" Jordan.... If Jordan was born a couple-few decades later in the Souf. This is what it'd look like!

Devon Booker😂 MJ was bangin on +footers who used to camp in the lane fool

84 mj was a alien 👽 from another solar system

Lebrron took Cleveland to the NBA Finals at 22 with no allstars, all nbaers or regular season awards winners.

Brown isn't better then Booker lol

Anthony Edwards better than MJ, MAMBA, LBJ and DWADE in his 4th season compared to them in theirs. If he has a healthy 10 or more years and continues to get better, he'll definitely be in the GOAT conversation if not the all out GOAT. P.S. Jaylen Brown, currently is NOT better than Devin Booker, and it's VERY DISRESPECTFUL to compare Ant Man to anyone that isn't in the GOAT CONVERSATION!

Jordan one hand palming the basketball at will was like an alien nothing like it before or after, kawhi is not as good at it as Jordan was

Antman have a midrange package 📦 and can dominate with an Air assault

Jordan took the league by storm like the beatles and James Brown Every team Every Night.. Time will tell if Ant Man will give the game what it must have/Practice evolution sacrife Jordanism

Fam you gas -in Jalen brown to much he a barley allstar to me

ant look like mike

KG been tending to his nose to much
