I kept saying people and the media comparing Ant to MJ was a setup because once he plays bad people will inevitably turn on him. Now look where we are at now.
He bigger den Black Jesus right now
The saltines already think Jokic Christ is the best player that ever lived. They compare him to greats all the time. No one bats an eye. He got eliminated and none of these Tubers have made videos about Jokic blowing a 20 pt lead. It's a RUclips hit job buddy.
@@DefenderOfLogic Amen dey should go make their own league and then our champion plays against their champion thats an idea
after two games too lmfao
This dude made the timberwolves relevant. That's how good he his.
Nothings wrong with him. He's a 22 year old who led his team to a conference finals. Idiots in the media compared him to MJ and put a massive bullseye on his back, now fans dont like him and are junping on every bad game he has
he is bigger at his age than MJ ever was
Most of these people worship Jokic Christ and are taking out their frustration on Ant. The 3X MVP blew a 20 point lead and this guy was silent.
Kyrie Stats vs OKC:
12 pts in Game 5
9 pts in Game 4
9 pts in Game 2
Not a sound.
@@DefenderOfLogic Ant prolly MJ son he bigger than Christ is in tha Black community that why it mean so much to us
@@DefenderOfLogic Most people aren't paying attention to bad games from Kyrie, Chet, or Jokic because of their box scores and low leadership of teams (specifically Chet and Kyrie for leadership and Jokic because he almost always has great stats). Luka and Ant are absolute targets right now. The one game Luka scored under 20 he got in so much heat for his poor performance. The expectations of ANT being MJ's son put him on the radar of a lot of people who didn't know his actual statline. People will hate him because of that, that he's so successful at 22, and once he performs badly (and seemingly is on a couple of game stretch), people will troll, hate, and call him in a fraud. It's the internet, people will find any freaking excuse to ridicule a player.
@@PacmanBrunner You are def a troll.
he kept getting doubled and the defense are built to make it tough on him and force him to make the right plays, that’s why all their role players are getting huge buckets and stepping up. ant is him
H ealso MJ son
Kyrie Stats vs OKC:
12 pts in Game 5
9 pts in Game 4
9 pts in Game 2
You made no video about whats wrong with Kyrie?
Ant is more trendy
Nobody was comparing him to MJ, and kyrie is the 2nd option
Kyrie was playing that way on purpose tho... he wasn't trying to score
Except nobody compares Kyrie to jordan and he's the second option.
@@peytonfechter3438 okay then let's look at their first option Luka. You wanna go look at his individual game playoff stats and tell me he hasn't had demonstrably worse games than Ant? Even though he's supposed to be a tier above him?
And before you tell me about his knee, go back and watch Ant fall on his tailbone in Game 6 against Denver. He hasn't played the same since
Teams are 0-14 when coming from a Game 7 against a team that didn't play a Game 7. So it's not surprising MN lost. What's surprising is we led most of the game and only lost by 3.
A few calls going the other way and we would have been the 1st team to ever win after a Game 7 like that.
The what if game is dangerous because if the Mavs hit more than 24% of their 3s the lead would’ve been larger. I think the problem with Ant is that guarding Kyrie involves a lot of off ball defense and chasing him around the perimeter. If MN wants to be in a better position they need McDaniels to guard Kyrie so he can save his legs for offense. Ant isn’t a bad defender but having him guard Kyrie all game limits MN offense.
Lot of what if every game bro. @@cheesesardines3013
@@cheesesardines3013exacttllly I remember Austin Reaves said when he guarded steff curry it made his offense horrible he couldn't feel his legs couldn't create his own shots...there are other players on Minnesota who's just as good on defense as ANT and is not the main offensive tool for the team...
Players guarded by Ant are shooting 38.9% in the playoffs. Best in the NBA. So I'd say he's meeting that responsibility on D in the playoffs, to the say the least.
Most of the players he guarded were injured or skinny like KD, Luka and Kyrie literally was hunting for edwards lol, If he is so good why don't timberwolves make him the primary defender for Luka? Let me tell you why because Luka will average about 50pts lol.
@@djkido316he guarded Jamal Murray and mpj tf u talkin bout do u even watch the fuckin games or just talk out yo ass
@@djkido316no he wouldn't average 50 edwards will average 10 pts because he gonna be chucking 3s because he's tired and kyrie is no different from luka they are very similar in offensive power...
Why is no one mentioning game 6 where he literally fell badly on his back and was down for a good minute + in pain. Yeah, he's obviously banged up, hope he continues to push through it like he has shown us he can do
Jamal Murray struggled with a calf strain for the entire playoffs, and then had to face some of the best perimeter defenders in the league. When he didn’t play well, people said he was overrated, and this is a guy that won a ring as a top 2 option. I don’t want to hear excuses for Ant now.
If you bring that up they will claim you're making an excuse.
@@DefenderOfLogicLuka is bleeding from both of his knees. I don't want to hear how Absent Ant is injured
@@user-tt1hx2nm4poh my god luka has a fuccin scar😂😂😂
For real most players wouldn't be playing through a fall like that.
He’s 22 so whatever
lmao he’s 22 you’re a casual if you dont think he’s had an impact even in games where he’s been a “no show” he’s created shots for others especially in game 7 if you actually watched the games
U can literally see his impact even in the scores any team with their 2 stars damn near 3 because mc daniels was off as well shooting that horrific should get blown out and the games still close I mean thats a no Brainer ant is giving the team good looks time and time again..
This dudes just cherry picking lol
“Wolves don’t have that other perimeter guy”
JADEN MCDANIELS Has a lot of potential bro
I think when hes rhw only major on ball threat defenses will do everything to make the rest of the team beat them. So I dont really blame ant tbh, hes still really impactful by creating opportunities
his shot selection is the issue. He has to reach another level of cardio to guard the best player on the opposite team and give an efficient 25 ppg
Hes young his body is not accustomed to deep play off runs and to make it worst they just played 7 vs the champs won 1 game by near 50 and came back from down 20 I won't be surprised if they got swept they are absolutely gassed Denver sent them through the wringer
@@lestonclark2398 yea that’s fair. They also play every other night for the whole series. In the Denver series they had 2-3 days off between some games. Idk why the schedule is worse for this round
Can everyone finally chill tf out about Ant?
must be a denver fan 😂
It's not like he gonna drop 40 every single game, bro is forsure next up out of american players so no we won't shut up
People don't have to chill until the Wolves get eliminated
@@ggwuero nope, celtics fan
@@wedabestradi096 the glazing is unreal
He has that turnover right before half time while they were up 6 and that left enough time for Kyrie to get an and 1. I said to myself, why pass when you could have gone to the rim or at least hold for final shot, and also knew that would bite them in the end of a close game.
Which it did but aye he’s 22 lol 😂
Exactly...he held the ball to the last like 7 seconds and then passed it horribly...I cud not understand that..I think he was nervous...it's not the first time he's doing that exact thing...he's not actually as confident as he likes to talk but he's young...I cudn't do shit at 22 let alone lead a billion dollar franchise
am I trippin or is this a new mic?
Wolves are lowkey a super team. They have 2 all stars, the dpoy, the 6moty, multiple all defense guys, even a coach of the year candidate. They’re stacked. I don’t want to hear excuses if they lose.
Yes and no, they are still a young team some of their best players are still under 25 (Naz, JD, and Ant) even if they lose this year they still had a good year the rebuild was way quicker than anyone expected
💀
The start.
wtf Wolves aint no super team
"Superteam" is a weaponized term, usually meant to imply that superstars decided to team up and play together instead of compete against one another. MN is not that. This team is mostly constructed through the draft naturally.
For a 22 year old ,taking down Nba champions like Jokic,Murray and phoenix Suns :KD, Booker and Beal, he is not allowed to learn or make mistakes ..man I'd be surprised if all these critics can even make their junior high school team.Keep the same energy!!
Luka doncic have same defense assignment maybe even more on bad knees
Mavericks defense.... UNCONSCIOUS!!!
What’s wrong with Anthony Edwards? Is he injured? No reports that he is. Maybe is the fact that he has to guard Kyrie Irving + the Mavs defence was great, not letting him get to the rim and forcing him to shot mid-ranges (not very efficient type shots), so he just took 3pts the whole game.
36% is not a bad FG attempt cuz he not always shotin the most shots on his team. plus he like the highlighter of the team. when he shoot it do make the team chemisty n moral go up. he could actually shoot more it might go his percent a bit. He on his way to become the next top player in da league. so good to see Jokic went home!!!! Tha leage is cool again
This is what's wrong. People compared him to MJ
What I took away from the game was they were able to lock Ant down but the wolves were still competitive. This series is going to be a grind and out one.
I never really seen a player getting tired so early in the game
And he’s a very fit player. Probably one of the fittest in the league
Game 7 in Denver will do that to you
@@letmesleepinpeace7052 Plus getting ankles broken by Kyrie all game. Kyries a different breed
@@letmesleepinpeace7052 Stop it, OKC vs Mavericks all games were decided by single digits and Luka played 41 minutes every game yet he dropped 15 points in the 4th with both his knees bleeding, Ant is overrated just accept it and move on.
@@jonathand.t.5051 Stop it, OKC vs Mavericks all games were decided by single digits and Luka played 41 minutes every game yet he dropped 15 points in the 4th with both his knees bleeding, Ant is overrated just accept it and move on.
I mean yeah he ain’t shooting well right now but he been getting doubled every game, can’t expect him to score every play when he’s getting doubled
What’s wrong is teams are throwing all the best defensive schemes that they can. Let the role players win the game
hello toast face, another great video
Toastface Killah.
I saw this problem in the Denver series i said besides kat who is really not that good for his skill set ant the only player who can really go get a bucket without needing to be set up kat at times yes but hes not aggressive enough and takes bad shots/dumb shots at times so i mean thos team is great but they need someone to help with the offensive load like if they dont win the title i think going after like demar or pascal bc that would add to their defense and a 3 person who could get their own shot but idk if they could get him bc pascal gonna want alot and the could go for lonzo whos a 2way player and a great playmakers and shooter and defender at the point they got options it just can they get them bc idk is the wolves a attractive spot for FA now bc of how good they are like i think if they lose demar or pascal could put them over the edge essentially pascal bc he can defend at a high level in the post and perimeter
He going to drop 50 next game
He hasnt played well since the fall where he was pushed by mpg against denver in game 6 i think
You all compared him to MJ. He came out dispelling that conversation. There has been no game where he was a no show. The last game he almost had a triple double. Clearly teams are ensuring he doesn’t kill them and is forcing the ball out his hands.
Dallas has 2 great finishers. MN only has 1 great finisher. In the last 2 close games, the team with the edge won.
He probably has to change his diet if he wants to have more energy a lot Is required from him defensively and offensively
Almost had. 20pt triple double last game. 5-12 from 3.
Can somebody explain to me why he is a 95 on 2k!!! And people like Jamal Murray have a 89 and Kyrie is a 93 but Ant is not better than either of them at all just athletic.
What about this.
If KAT is shooting the best from 3 from everybody else in these playoffs, why not get him 10 to 15 attempts per game? Give him the Steph Curry greenlight.
its like every 3rd game KAT realizes he's a 7ft big man who can shoot over and bully kids in the paint.. otherwise he's a 3pt line sitter
As a mavs fan i would love it.
I think him and Luka are lowkey injured I’m excited for him even if he loses this season
Luka is definitely injured not might be you fn more on
@@user-tt1hx2nm4p Well, we got to actually see Ant take that hard fall in Game 6. For Luka we've just gotta take the word of the Mavs team don't we?
@@lightbeforethetunnel Do you have eyes? He's literally bleeding from both knees every game lol.
Bleeding implies you have a scratch not injury
He’s hurt, since his fall in game 6 look at his stats
We're likely in the most competitive era of the NBA to date. That's what's wrong with him.
Man, you speak so fast 😆
So basically he cant handle the kinda Defense that Tatum sees every game?..lol. But he better though?..lol. Ant just not used to that 1 box yet. They making playmake n settle for top of arc threes. He got decide quicker how he wants to manipulate
He can't eat Popeye's and he's not in-form xD
Gotta lose to understand what it takes to win
Don’t overreact please, it’s only game 1
Dallas is going to have to steal every game to win the series. Kyrie and Luka both had 30 and they only won by 3 with Ant having a low scoring output. what happens when they have a bad shooting night? Timberwolves look like the favorite to actually win because of defense and more depth but it’s ultimately on Ant to be the deciding factor
Few bad games. Not a big deal. Watch him get 50 next game in Dallas.
51% of the team that win game 1 win the series. Congrats on your 2% lead Mavs fans 😂
He looked tired. Didn't drive to the basket much
Whats wrong is he needs some Milk 😂
One of the most overrated players ever to the point people compare him to MJ. Even 2k has him at a 95 which is diabolical and insane.
Take out Rudy he becoming a liability on offense and but in naz ried so they could switch more and he could space the floor
He’s just worn down from the game 7 he will bounce back media just needs to have some patience
The stacked wolves lost to the mavs, simple as that.
I mean they not eliminated yet. 🍿
"Hes injured ant its fiiiiiiiine" you said the Celtics and Tatum were frauds tho? Comedically bad analysis on a guy that JUST PLAYED BAD
Other that his shooting percentages, he hasn't been playing bad at all. Drawing double & triple teams has been creating tons of open looks for his teammates and he's been capitalizing on that (dishing out 6-8 open 3s a game for a shooting guard is great).
Players guarded by Ant are shooting 38.9% in the playoffs. That's the best individual D in the NBA right now.
So sure, his scoring totals have been down over 4 of the last 6 games and he needs to improve on that. But i wouldn't go as far as to say he's playing bad. That would be a very 1 dimensional take on a multidimensional game.
He’s was getting burned out he needs to rest
It’s easy, he’s fatigued🤷♂️ He was sucking on Oxygen while on the bench. He’ll be fine. I remember Kobe shooting 3 air balls in the Playoffs and everyone rippin on him. Dudes like him, feed off failure and it drives them.
he just tired
No need to do mental gymnastic wolves played Suns in the first round who doesn't play a lick of defense, Played denver in the second round where jokic was gassed because they don't have any other center on the bench and nuggets were playing bad defense all playoffs look at Lakers series, Mavs on the other end played OKC and Clippers who are #1 and #2 on offense and top 5 in defense and hold them to 100 points in 10 out of 12 games, So the mavs is the first defensive challenge wolves faced all playoffs long so now you will see wolves actual production not some inflated numbers against bad defensive teams lol.
The downplay on denver is insane, During the 1st rds ppl were saying they gonna repeat. Now this?
@@Ak4set Wassup?
@@djkido316 Still doesnt negate my point. Suns is understandable, But ur downplay on nuggets is asinine.
Two words JADEN MCDANIELS
Now wolves gonna say they are gassed.... excuses....
He’s lazy !!!
first?
One word, magnets. I’m fully done with the NBA, it’s one big joke for money. No im not a wolves fan or even an Edward’s big fan.
it’s one game
He’s a bum
first 3 seconds in the video u say hes the next mj. gollyyy bro hop off
I said that? I said that’s what other people were saying haha
@@SLExtra-xc4mv😭😭
He is just too overrated
Media doing rat media things.😊
“I got Kyrie” how’d that 30 points feel?
This whole narrative is crazy. He was saying hes excited to matchup against Kyrie. Everyone pushing this like he said he was going to lock Kyrie up. No one can listen i swear
@@crowman34even Kyrie is going with that narrative which I’m surprised lol.
@@crowman34 normally yeah that’d be true but this is the same moron who bragged about locking up Jamaal Murray after Murray dropped 35 on him. Dudes an idiot
@@crowman34bruh I’m seeing in real time people startin to turn on ant. It’s so fuccin disgusting
