It’s a debate show calm down. They have to pick a side. Ant is the new face of the league not jokic. Ant is a leader, plays both sides of the court. He has toughen up Katt who played jokic tough.
Anyone who is athletic and skilled enough to threaten Michaels spot as the goat, is hated by Skip. Skip is afraid of Ant just like he is terrified of LeBron.
Well atleast LeBron made him out to be a liar so for he is on point with this guy but if skip keeps it up he will be unemployed because the league is trying to sell this Guy to the fans with Lbj it was OK because the league want him out to start the next generation
@@focuz4899 so whats your point? AE had 8rebs and 7ast. the point being made is you can still have an impact on a game while having an inefficient shooting night
Jordan went 9-25 in game 7 of the 1998 ecf. He went 4-8 for 18 points in the 1989 ecf game five in a 9 point loss and people destroyed kobe for not shooting against against phoenix. Michaels better than kobe but the point is you can still lead while not shooting well and you can shoot well but not being agressive hurts the team
yes he did cuffed him. one on one murray cant do shit on ant. I watched all games wolves played and I noticed that as soon as ant starts to guard murray, murray chokes on every move. ant has very quick feet and he dont let anyone breath when he's guarding. No mcdaniels or walker could defend murray as perfectly as ant. he did handcuffed murray. All murray point were after nuggets switch off ant from murray.
But yet jamal was the highest scorer on both teams ao i don't see how edwards had him in handcuffs, the Timberwolves beat the nuggets as a TEAM, they didn't just beat jamal and jokic.
@@seekgod365 the handcuffing thing wasnt seen that much in game 7 but it was seen in game 6 and game 5. I think since game 5 ant was main defender on murray, in first 4 games it wasnt like that. And it showed clearly how uncomfortable murray felt when ant was on him. ant impacted murray big time, that's why wolves kept ant on murray for the rest of the games. also ant goes around pick and rolls very well (better than walker or mcdaniels) but not perfectly so that way murray got his points, off of switches. But when murray tried to score one on one against ant he mostly failed to do so. against walker and mcdaniels and the rest of the team but ant murray scored pretty good but when ant goes on him, he is quickly silenced. ofcourse all wolves have beaten nuggets and not just ant but it was super important to neutralize murray and jokic as effective as possible and ant did just that - took care of murray. bravo for ant.
MJ also shot 9-30 in a loss and sweep by the Boston Celtics. This is why Skip can’t be trusted or taken seriously by almost any topic or comparison to Michael Jordan. Because he always presents a narrative as if Jordan never had any bad game let alone playoff game. Ant is leading this team at 22 years old. How many undisputed all-time great players and champions were competing for championships at that age as the unquestioned best player? When magic was winning championships in his first couple of years, he was still 2nd behind Kareem. Kobe was still 2nd behind peak Shaq And MJ, even though he had no real teammates to compete with, was getting beat or swept out the playoffs in the first round against the bucks and the Celtics.
Ant it isn't a ball-hawk like some players who scored 40+ points. Ant plays team basketball and get his teammates involved. Ant always compliments his guys first. That's what a great leader does.
I understand that obviously real life basketball and playing NBA 2K are two different things but I once had an A+ Grade Performance for not being the best scorer but being the best at everything else. Goes to show you that it’s not all about scoring.
Skip is always talking about Jordan as is he took the bulls to the Conference finals in his second year, it took him 5 years to get to the ECF, he will never talk about that.
The issue with MJ fans is they are never realistic, At 22 MJ wasn’t even in the playoffs let alone the second round or WCF. MJ didn’t pass and did not trust his teammates. MJ was getting swept
Skip, Nuggets had to double/triple Ant all game to contain him. Thats what allowed his team to score. Thats his contribution. If they didnt, he'd drop 40+ on them.
I love Keyshawn and Paul, but Skip is the exact reason why I can’t watch this show. His perspectives on certain players or blatantly biased and just absurd. He really doesn’t know the game.
Skip is always going to find a flaw in the players he doesn't like! But if Skip likes the player, he will find reason and excuse to praise that player 🙄 😮😂
Im cool with what antman said. Denver talked trash all about how they exploited DLO last year in the sweep. And to some extent this year. Give Denvet all that smoke! No class winners. No class losers! Facts
Skip is right Ant have a problem in closing out important games. thats not the first time ant has been bad on the offence in a game that matter. he needs to work on that because he cant let that happen against the Mavs
Yeah... ppl think scoring a bunch of points is what basketball is all about 😂😂😂 Skip knows this. He is just mad ppl are comparing Ant to Jordan. And Ant looks ahead of Jordan at this point in his career. He is no where in the top 30 all time, but that GOAT debate can make these Jordan stans do the funniest shit 😂 Hating on a young stud who IMPACTED the game despite shooting terribly.
Skip bayless is a world grade hater. He wants everyone to be like Jordan. If you watched the game you could see they spent so much time and energy trying to stop ant that he ended up dominating the game in the second half without scoring
Always moving the goal post. Edwards is a elite two way player. If joker had D he wouldn’t be in Cancun. Edwards is better . Eye test. Stats don’t win chips. Defense and execution does. Jah isn’t better than Edwards
