As a Twolves fan I never thought I’d be called a bandwagon
lmao same
its been a rough franchise history haha
As a thunder fan (who literally lives in OK), you'll get used to it. 😑
So happy it’s finally turning around for us
I've been a timberwolves fan for 3 decades. We finally have something to talk about. There's still no such thing as a t-wolves bandwagon fan 😂
@@TYKU121there’s definitely such thing as a Timberwolves bandwagon now.
If I'm Edwards, I'd be working on these things at this point:
1. Conditioning. He wore out in the Playoffs, late. It was his deepest run. He'll learn. Part of conditioning is diet. He admits to eating poorly. Change that fact.
2. Workouts. He admitted to missing some workouts. Have the Kobe mentality and go hard, every time.
3. Post up Isos. Teams started to loosely double team Ant in the Playoffs, and did it early in a set and way beyond the three point line. Go off ball and in the post, spread the D, and make a quick decisive move.
4. Off ball. Too often he is standing in a corner. Watch old school Reggie Miller or Curry now. Yes, different skills and players than AE, but he could put a lot of pressure on teams in this regard. I have a feeling he's saving up due to #1 above.
5. Decisiveness. Know your spots and read the D quickly. The ball and offensive pace can stall in his hands. Go quickly, decisively. Even watching Team USA, he's been good, but the ball sticks a bit too long in his hands.
My favorite player. Excited to see him grow.
Smart
Facts I’m glad he’s on team USA 🇺🇸 soaking up all the game from the goats
This is such a good take I forgot I was in a youtube comment section for a second! lol
Ant said he will be working on all these things this off-season 💯🔥
@@KThangcrazy good point
Sometimes he trusts his team too much. There are many times when I'm thinking why didn't ant take the shot, or, why did he take the shot with so much time on the clock. As a Timberwolves fan, he's still got so much room to grow it's crazy. Both offensively and defensively he can still improve, and like the video days, each year he DOES improve which is crazy. Where is his ceiling? Is he ever going to regress? He hasn't shown it yet even in Olympics. Even with LeBron Steph Booker embiid Tatum AD and everybody else, he's still sticking out like he's the best player on the floor. Only person who's looking better than Edwards on team USA is AD.
Yall are all trippin saying he’s overrated
Hes very overrated
@@jalynjones9136watch him play live. He’s not
@@jalynjones9136no I don’t think say
sounds about white
you're goofy haha
If ANT develops an efficient floater the league is fcked
faxxxxxxx
I’ll never forget getting into a heated debate with one of my home boys at the start of the 21-22 season after I showed up to school in my new Ant jersey. I’ll never forget how hard capping he was for lamelo. Good times fr
He’s one of those guys where his stats don’t do him justice for his impact. Not like they’re bad but he brings a certain type of energy that needs to be accounted for.
As a wolves fan I won’t let down the Anthony Bennett comparisons when he got drafted. Times have changed greatly.
Ant doesn’t just remind of MJ and Kobe he got his own style too, and he got the potential to actually be like Kobe or MJ, he a young star for sure
Yeah he definitely has is own style which is a good thing about his game
His euro is deadly and apparently he learned it from Luka Garza
I hope they hold on to him. He's got some skills offensively at least.
@@mikeypikey2743, I hope so as well. I was sad to hear when the Pistons dropped him after drafting him.
@@mikeypikey2743 I really hope he plays out that 2 year extension and proves he can hang in our already deep rotation of bigs. I think he has the offensive skill already to hang in the league, its just if he can develop the defense to a point where he isnt unplayable vs opposing bigs.
@@yeti1174he’s played decently in garbage time fr
Ant learns something from everyone, which is a great trait to have.
The only people that consider him overrated are just hating for one reason or another, or are new to basketball and don't understand how much better a 2-way superstar is than a one-dimensional scorer. Not to mention he might be the most clutch player in the league at 22yo in terms of elevating his play in the playoffs and important moments
It’s mostly hardcore Jordan and Kobe fans who get super upset when you compare anyone to them, even if it’s just style of play. To me they are the most annoying fans lol.
Ant = Led all NON-BIGS in DEF RATING last year (9th overall in NBA)
Ant = Only the 3rd Player in NBA History (Kobe & LeBron) to average 25+/5+/5+ in the Playoffs while reaching a Conference Finals at 22 or younger.
One thing I’d like to see Ant improve on the most is his passing. If he learns how to pass out of those double teams and use his leverage to get his teammates open…. Bro I don’t even want to think about it.
5ive is the 5ace of the NBA 🐜
Luka wants to know ur location
@@bastionrome9021nigga Ant the face be quiet
@@bastionrome9021Tatum owns Luka in that case
He is tough, no doubt about it. At guard, he's my first choice in the game today. Plays both ends, smart, keeps everyone involved on offense, and when you need a big bucket, you can put the ball in his hands.
p.s. I'm a lifelong warrior fan, so there's no favoritism in the above statement.
I just became a timberwolves fan during the 2024 playoffs because i was an Anthony edwards fan but that entire timberwolves run made me a fan of the whole team because they all exceed expectations during the playoffs
I've seen enough. HoopMaster is the truth! Top Tier Analyst!
That really means a lot, thank you! I appreciate that
Great vid, subbed
Thank you, I hella appreciate that!
cool video! fun watch!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it
Good video bro. Antman is a beast!!
thank you thank you, & yeah ant is a monster
How/where is he *overrated* ? Cause he’s doing everything he’s suppose to.. he shoots, he can finish in the paint, he plays defense, he can play make, he’s still 22 & is learning still so how are people saying he’s “ overrated “ ?
yeah I don't get why peo[le say that either
Passing, he needs to get better at passing.
Continuing to improve as a shooter, and becoming elite in that midrange area with pull ups and floaters is going to take him to another level.
Adding a post game like MJ and Kobe would be insane, the sky is the limit. It’s up to Ant to determine how good he wants to be
He can score on anyone in the nba easily
Not Vince Williams Jr
I haven't watched enough HM man I've never heard you do that reverb before @ 4:35 😂😂
d.rose used to launch off his back foot the same way in his prime, that quick first step
He’s a damn Leo forreal
6:48 that travel was DIABOLICAL
Nahh facts😭😭😭
Another thing i think he can work on which he has stated is his hero ball and shot selection he was taking some shots that he didn't need to a d he was trying to will the wolves back into the game by himself when he didn't need to
Hopefully he can unlock his lobs with Rudy to get more easy buckets
am i trippin but at 6:50 my man traveled. he is still top 3 for me
he did travel haha
Derrick Jones Jr. combined with the Mavs rim protectors made it look very possible.
Agreed but I believe his mindset will prevent him from being able to be stopped by the same defense yearly
He was missing wide open shots, as was KAT. Them boys was gassed. Dallas won fair and square regardless, no hate. But the Wolves’ conditioning definitely killed them. Excited to matchup again next year!
We’ll be back..Mavs prob not 😂
@@wavey5lHe even said it was the conditioning
The Mavs took his chicken
"Mama, there goes that man."
just a straight beast!
Question, how is @3:28 not a travel cause it look like he took 3 steps after bouncing the ball.
Ant needs more good people on his team because he puts too much trust in them
Nah facts , ANT man was carrying they ass
Over ratted no no this kid is absolutely a great player in few years like wemby and others young players he'll be Nba's new face
12:09 I think he should just continue the arrow way then when he reached there he spins, he fakes and then he does like two or one steps ahead and then he makes a layup.
New sub, really good videos brother 🦾
Yooo I appreciate that a lot 🤝🤝
Nobody scoring 25 a game can be overrated. 😂. 22 yrs old
exactlyyyy
Oh they can when they wanted to rate him as high as MJ
yessir
wow
I wish I had a more quality engine.
Shouldve been MVP!!!
🐜.
3:29 that's a travel right? doesn't dribble before getting off his pivot
luka still owns up lol
So does that mean Boston owns Luka and Kyrie 😂😂😂😂
Ant is 22 years old and got to the Conference Finals he did great this year. Plus Kyrie did a majority of the carrying that series also.
yall say 1 series win is a “own.”
He's gonna come down on his ankle hard one day and be out for an entire season.. I can already see it
Ja morant better get his act together
Mavs guarded him 😴
impossible to guard hahahahahah mr oxygen tank got his ass clapped by luka the don 😂😂😂 relaxxxx buddy
Ant is my king
he must be faster. He's too slow
He waits too long to attack on alot of possessions but he definitely not slow
Goofy
@@DrewNelson-bs5zs 😂 nah fr
bruh this video ain’t on luka
No let him play at his pace. He does fast at times when he needs to
people saying he is overrated is kind of wild. he dragged the wolves to the record they had in the regular season. and then even more in the playoffs where towns forgot how to play. with out ant wolves are an easy lottery team. with him they were 1 game out of 1st place in the west. and if you are going to talk about the mavs series please look at his stats. he had almost 2 triple doubles. and had 1 game with 19 the rest was well into the 20-30 range. if his teammates decided to play they would have been in the finals.
Ant is great, but to say he dragged that team thru the regular season is absurd.
Im a huge Wolves fan, he didn’t drag them. The roster is very solid, but ya in the WCF KAT definitely let the team down.
Shoot the ball
That euro step is abit slow 😂 TRAVEL
Yeah be he is not actually
One thing of Edwards is that he can jump. Another thing is that he doesn't pass the ball enough. He forces too many shots
He averages 6 Assists
@@U.S.AGovernment-FBI , it's actually 5.1 assist per game as per NBA website-. But then you have Caitlin Clark a rookie in the WNBA with 8 assists per game
@@Crooked_Clown Erm Actually 🤓👆🏽. And plz don't compare the NBA and the WNBA. Two total different games 💀
@@U.S.AGovernment-FBI, Still. He could do a lot better if he pass the ball more. Many of his shots are forced, when he got teammates all around him. 5 assist per game only translate to 15 points at best.
@@Crooked_Clown TF you want him to do average a double double . Bro averages basically the same as Kyrie, get more than curry, Tatum,KD, Jimmy Butler , and Zion, and Josh Giddy. And they still managed to get to the conference finals
3:30 travel
shhhhhh 🤫
The only thing amazing about Ant is how over hyped he is.
Can't wait to check back in with you after the Olympics. He's the best player on that squad.
@@justinkidder6872No.
While you’re at it make him 5” taller too. He is what he is, take him or not. As a Timber Wolves fan he’s incredibly entertaining to watch which ultimately is what it’s about. That and he has a great personality too. We’re happy to keep him, but of course the league will decide where he goes.
By the looks of it you are surely missing an X or Y chromosome and you showing up strong on the autism spectrum 😂😂😂😂😂
Ant is 22 years old and got to the Conference Finals he's the only player since LeBron to get to the Conference Finals and lead the team in points, assist and steals at only 22 YEARS OLD. Ant is great and only getting better.
As good as he is, his game so far relies too much on his athleticism. He is very young and has time enough to add more to his bag, so when he is no longer the more athletic dude in the court he still dominates.
In this past match against Dallas, it was made clear Luka and even Kyre are much better than Ant, precisely because these two have much more in their skills set. That being said, I look forward to see how Ant evolves
Amazing player but he’s overrated
In what way? He’s only 22
@@lilolittle3131 people put him in top six player conversations and say he’s the next pace of the league. Quite frankly, he’s just not on the level of guys like Luka, Ja, Trae, Wemby or brunson
@@4ktkaram395 Wemby is good, but he only played 1 year, and your comparing him to PGs and Centers
@@4ktkaram395 You comparing ANT to trae, ja and brunson? ANT 22 and he already miles ahead of those 3 not to mention wemby who just came off a rookie season. Stop talking out ya bum and stop being a casual. Cause clearly you don't watch basketball idiot.
I've never seen a generational talent like Edwards be referred to as a bust, not likely to like basketball, then underrated and not as good as LaMelo, like Jordan, then now overrated but we all know he is underrated... His field goal percentage would be way higher at this point in his career if he had not had to play with Karl Anthony Towns and that's what nobody is talking about and it's so annoying, Dillingham and Shannon Jr. in particular are going to make this so much easier for Ant..
Once he gets cold he gets cold
Big factsss
