@@zay222Trueyour wrong okc was a top televised team at KDs ascension after they went to the finals when lebron won his first and they were only 23 they got tons of media attention because KD was the second best player in the nba at the time and okc was a top team every year
Your right, if espn and TNT showed their games. But they don't. He still gets exposure cus of social media and stuff.

Pat mahomes is the face of the nfl, and he plays in a smaller market than Ant. where a player plays, is irrelevant since the internet. Giannis, Jokic, Shai, none of them play in big cities.
It’s 2024 you don’t have to leave to some big market to be the face of the league anymore if your good enough it’ll come naturally just like bron in Cleveland or KD in okc or shai in okc now or Giannis/jokic
If u think Shai is a face of the league player u smoking . Anthony Edward’s catches your eye watching him play like bron did . Shai is really really great but he ain’t entertaining like ant is
Ant Man game, highlights, dunks, and sig shoes will get him to one of the faces of the league in Minnesota. Internet and camera phones everywhere, he can get there soon as long as he at least keeps winning.
Gil dropped the ball with Anthony Edwards and KD. Since KD is Anthony's favorite player, that means he takes pride in beating him. And he will make sure he continues to do it.
yeah he's speaking on his own feelings again he's probably that sensitive that he thinks stuff like that is disrespectful. we all know Gil's full of shit and pride

Minneapolis is a bigger market than Miami and Milwaukee. MN has Ant on a contract extension for five years starting next year. He’ll be in MPLS for awhile.
Not bigger than Miami but definitely way bigger than Denver, OKC Milwaukee where biggest stars under 30 are. Everyone just want everyone to play for the Lakers or Knicks.

@@yvans. To be the face of the league extends beyond just how great you are at basketball, you need to be marketable. As great as Jokic is, he doesn't have an exciting character and he doesn't even seem to really care about the media side of things himself. Kawhi and Tim Duncan were the best players at one point but they were never the faces of the league for similar reasons even though they were both American. Ant has the most potential when all things are considered.
@@MR12AMAZING Joker popularity winning will go way higher now, he is starting to get some talking from espn etc just cause of that ads he did for despicable me. You can't be the face if you ain't winning in the playoffs constantly and lebron/steph is still in there. KD has never been face of the league but he got his props that's more jokic I think in the KD sphere.
This is Why NFL is beating NBA. They promote small market teams and allow those markets to flourish. Steelers are on the most valuable franchises and there in fucming pittsburg. Who cares if Ant is in Minnesota let the man be great and market him and allow him to turn that franchise into something serious.
Ignorant for talking about Minneapolis and MN that way. Number one vacation destination in the USA is Mall of America, next to the Airport. Minneapolis's downtown sizes up with Boston or Phoenix. St. Paul is like placing Hartford, CT next to Boston. Massive industries and corporations created here and moved here. So many things to do year round with the ability to drive across town when 5ft of snow falls. In the Midwest, there is Chicago then the Twin Cities and St. Louis is next. Milwaukee and Des Moines are the size of St. Paul.

Gil trippin, people were most definitely going to watch 2010-2013 thunder. Jokic not popular cause his game is just boring and not attractive. The face of the league WAS heading in ja direction, Nike athlete and shoes was selling out and the kids love him. So it’s honestly just like how entertaining you are as a player more than anything.
How is jokic game boring? Do you guys actually watch the games? HE is one of the best passers and can shoot or post up, he ain't like tim duncan playing below the rim most of the time. I swear yall only watch highlights. A 30pt 20reb 10 ast ain't boring bruh.

Dude don’t ever compare white ppl to blk …it’s not the same …we soften the game to even allow u guys to a play …we have nothing to be jealous of
I get yall point but the bulls weren’t a big market team till Jordan made em one and I think ant can do the same to Minnesota
What they edit on Brandon's Kobe statement?
Reachin w the title
THE HATE FOR KD IS REAL😂😂😂 THIS THE WOLVES FIRST TIME BEATING THE SUNS IN 7 straight games ‼️ FIRST time ant scored over 22 against the suns … AND KD HAD 30 points on 71% FG‼️😂
OKC was on TV damn near every night when they had KD and I'm in Fla...that was my squad over the Heat
He will be good out there like Bron in Cleveland n giannis in Milwaukee
I had to look up Lemon Daddy 😅🤣😂
"But THAT didn't happen!" 😂😂😂😂😂
Clippers hat with the bucks jersey Gilbert??
Face of the nba talk has got to stop lol. Maybe after he wins a few playoff series. There's players in the league with 20+ playoff series wins
As a Blazers fan who had to watch fat Shawn Kemp, this was hilarious! Shawn in Portland looked like that guy at the rec center that was trying to do the Karl Malone fade away...
I can’t get over home girls “black people cant be racist”. Cemented forever in my mind with this lady
We can't be, don't have any power dynamics. We're prejudiced.
Well…ask yourself (or find out) what is racism and then how do black people implement it?
@@SimplyComplicated1black ppl can be racist anybody can be a racist
@@jaywin9048if you really think that your delusional
Bigot but not racist because we can't control were you stay,what schools u go to,denie u bank loans based on color,denie u jobs based on color!! Yes she was right!! Black people can't deny other groups of people equality, freedom and opportunities based on race!!! She's a 💯 % right 😮
Whatever you do in life, and you do it exceptionally well….they’ll find you. Doesn’t matter the city, state, even country.
Ja morant amisses one season, Luka and Joker still killing it, Giannis still here, the list goes on.. and ya’ll crowning ANT as the face. NBA players and fans really do have short term Memory.
Anthony Edwards is DEFINITELY going to be the 1st one to be the face of the NBA LEAGUE why! Because Anthony Edwards deserves it and he's worth IT!!!!!
Gil drip be so disgusting and nobody ever says anything🤦🏾♂️🤣
Gil trippin, people were most definitely going to watch 2010-2013 thunder. Jokic not popular cause his game is just boring and not attractive. The face of the league WAS heading in ja direction, Nike athlete and shoes was selling out and the kids love him. So it’s honestly just like how entertaining you are as a player more than anything.
How is jokic game boring? Do you guys actually watch the games? HE is one of the best passers and can shoot or post up, he ain't like tim duncan playing below the rim most of the time. I swear yall only watch highlights. A 30pt 20reb 10 ast ain't boring bruh.
Nice to have K back!!
1:37 😂💯
The market debate is real. It's just marketing 101
LEBRON FACE UNTIL HE STEPS AWAY..FACTS.
Waffle jokic the face of the nba last 2 years and before that curry by far
How anti-competitive, to outright say that certain cities don’t deserve to run the league.
They shouldn’t have teams where there is no chance to have the best talent.
If the NBA is that fake, I’ll go watch a different sport.
Signed, a Minneapolis resident with hope in a home team for the first time since 1991. And Prince was never “held back” by this city.
Scroll below and above for the later comments.
I believe he's doing it the right way. Love his competitive style of play.
Joker is the only man standing in his way of being the face of
Gil saying 33 of his 60 was on Kobe was cap. All the sources actually show only 18 being on Kobe
i never played basketball and im terrible but i too watch the games muted as well and its much better to watch imo
Yeah the whole big market thing doesn’t matter anymore. When you are winning
The very best transcend their market and become a global superstar 🌲🐺
