For you commenters who’s saying they’re glazing or forcing the narrative of Anthony Edwards, you guys do realize that this segment used to be prevalent at the peak of ESPN powers. It’s not a new thing.
ANT-MAN’s resemblance to young MJ is truly uncanny-everything from his appearance and athleticism to his playing style! It’s no surprise people keep making comparisons, especially with fans feeling nostalgic for MJ's era. I believe ANT-MAN is the closest we’ll get, and he’s on track to carve out his own generational legacy too!!!
Definitely agreed. I'm 4 inches shorter than him and have a 2ft differential from height to standing reach so if he has proven to be able to hit is head on 10ft on a chase down block, that should be enough to prove that he's definitely reaching over 12ft once he's fully warmed up
Right, the argument against NBA players no longer applies. They say they are “soft” but I would like to see football players play without pads. Everyone in the NBA is way heavier and muscular than 20+ years ago. We have seen simple taps from Lebron break Gordon Hayward and Chet Holmgren’s legs.
@@danielthompson3928 The difference is that NBA players quit Football because of the physicality. Ant literally quit playing cause he broke his arm LOL. They are totally capable EXCEPT for the constant contact and pain thats why they switch to basketball. Football players dont have to worry about that switching to basketball, easier to get a Justin Jefferson or any freak NBA ready str8 up just a matter of them starting Basketball at an earlier age and having some size. People get weeded out in Football real quick first time they get a concussion, these are just facts. Look at Running backs, the kids that become running backs and make it to the NFL EMBRACE contact and get weeded out at an early age, you will know real quick if you wanna play Running back after the first time you get crushed and fell on by 3 280 pound men hahaha.
Actually a better vid than I though t it was going to be. Though that clip of MJ wasn’t a turn around jumper, he just jumped and shot over the defender.
Ant got skill as well he that dude plays both way him in the playoffs is box office and ant is him he like 2 inches shorter than mike but heavier. Mj balding mj 1984 had 48 inch vert insane ant got 44 inch vert like bron but he smaller but faster ant super freak
They always say players grow. Ant himself said he was 6’4 lmao, I don’t know why y’all are so bent on making these dudes taller than they really are, they are already so tall. I don’t get it. Ant is 6’4, Tatum is not 6’9 or 6’10, he’s 6’8, KD really is 6’9.5-6’10, not 7 ft, etc. 🤷🏿♂️

This was cool until you started "measuring" force in watts & Tons w/o Anthony wearing an accelerometer. If you guys are going to do sports science please do it right.
Guys like klay thompson, luka doncic, zion williamson, and James harden are ll taller the him and they are all 6'5 to 6'7 tall . Stop making excuses buddy , period 👌🏾.
@thekongstocks Ant plays and has the build of an NFL player already a the young age of 23. Back in the 80s however, MJ had was very slim and was 6 feet 6 inches Jumping 48 inches back in 1984 . Anthony edwards doesn't Move or Jump like michael Jordan .
@@aaronmbaye6498 Anyone with a brain knows that Mike did not have a 48 inch vert. Just think about it. At 6'6'' that means he would be getting his head 6 inches above the rim. If you can find a clip of him even getting 3 inches above the rim, that would be a 45 inch vert. He most likely was closer to around 44 ish.
@@iguesssnope not ant defensive highlights not even close ant like mj in that way also his super freak athleticism only Zion and ja donthat but ant better shooter and defender
You wish ant shooting 3s more and not attack as much that’s for the playoff and it paying off cause he killing it. Like mj he had the highest vertical but also skill to last long and win 6 rings so your cap

@@bakerboy2267explain how he’s wrong
@@zeqa9 ant plays nothing like mj fym? Other than impressive dunks and fadeaways they dont play alike at all
@@ooglespoogle1929I mean still, MJ himself said there are similarities in their game.
This is the coolest video I’ve ever seen
I think Anthony Edwards is one of the best athletes in the league for sure! 11'10" max touch seems a bit low based on what he's done in games.
Definitely agreed. I'm 4 inches shorter than him and have a 2ft differential from height to standing reach so if he has proven to be able to hit is head on 10ft on a chase down block, that should be enough to prove that he's definitely reaching over 12ft once he's fully warmed up
He got boosted up on that block @@stevelau7694
Goes to show the human body is amazing. Edwards is using the FULL advantage of his body at its finest. He's blessed.
Ant watching this like,
“ Yeah I can play in the NFL. ”
He does have the build for it

That’s the reason why they compared him to Michael jordan.😮
man I would've loved one of those in-depth sports science videos where they mic up ant
Lol what the heck the got Rj doing 😂😂
Voice is terrible lol 😭😂
ASMR
As a data analyst who loves atheticism and is a big fan of Ant and kyrie Irving, that was absolutely doping.
Season 5ive. Lets Go Ant 🐜
Anthony Edward next MJ 💯
Believe that! 🐜
SPORTS SCEINCE SHOULD B A FULL SEGMENT
My GOAT !!!!
He is MJ’s long lost secret love child!

I know Ant is listed as 6' 4" but I read that the Wolves announcer lists him as 6'5" for lineup introductions.
He is closer to 6’5.5, he grew between first and second year. He hasn’t been 6’4 for seasons now. Finch said it.
They always say players grow. Ant himself said he was 6’4 lmao, I don’t know why y’all are so bent on making these dudes taller than they really are, they are already so tall. I don’t get it. Ant is 6’4, Tatum is not 6’9 or 6’10, he’s 6’8, KD really is 6’9.5-6’10, not 7 ft, etc. 🤷🏿♂️

The Dude is so good that they started a case study on him.😂
SPORT SCIENCE IS BACKKKK
Ain't the same without Brenkus
True
Sports science back I can’t believe my eyes
Where do I plug my iPhone into ant so he can charge it for 4 hours 🤣
I bet Bill Burr was watching this video saying 'It's that quick-twitch, that quick-twitch'😂😂😂
if they brought back Sport Science and Pros vs Joes id get the streaming service so quick
In Minneapolis is known as the perfect specimen
they should analyze why I have only an 8 inch vertical. that would be more interesting. I don't work out at all
Comparing a player to Jordan will never end well. Look at Booker. Tatum did not win a dime until he stopped trying to be Jordan but rather himself
Anthony Edwards has me watching basketball again. I left it after MJ.
5000 watts running an iPhone for 4 hours makes no sense. Power doesn’t determine how long something runs, capacity does.
I've never seen the nba media push a player on us so hard. They really wanna make him the next big thing
Fr like he if played good against the mavs they probably sweep them
charles Barkely was amazing too both ringless
Maaan ESPN going crazy trying to make Ant the face of the league

Good sports science
what happened to the other commentator?
I’m looking for John Brenkus 👀
🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 let's go 😤😤🔥🔥🔥🔥
He’d be megatron or DK like in the NFL
5000 gigawatts😂 back to the future. MJ
Yea, they definitely said 5000 watts (5kw), not 5000 kws or gws.
nigawatts
Why Antman is wearing D-Rose shoes?
hes got AE PE sneakers not drose shoes
Who wrote this? Sure as he'll it was not RJ.
What the hello is a block radius?
Mr. Clean Richard saying technical scientific terms is just weird hahaha
For those wanting a vid summary: 👍🏾
The science behind Anthony Edwards' athleticism: 1.) He's Black.
Why Malika kinda swole?
Because she has been giving all of her white bosses a lot of HJ and BJ lmao

Where is John Brenkus?
Bronny next please😂
Soon as I heard RJ, I left the video
I can’t tell if Rj serious or not cause he so goofy 😂😂😂😂
Great video i love sports science 🧪🔥, Ant is my favorite player to watch he's so entertaining.
i wish i was 6,4
Jason Tatum didn’t pan out the way they wanted to, so up to the next star. This one is way better though
Why did I always think ant was 6’6 lol
Cause he is now but he’s still listen at 6,4 from when he was drafted but right now he is about 6,5-,6,6
They not lying about their height like they did in the 70's&80's lol
@ ok so I wasnt tripping lol I knew I saw somewhere he was 6’6 lol
@@MistaSherman lol maybe 6’6 in shoes and 6’4 barefoot idk he’s a beast at either height. Just some of those dunks are crazy at 6’4
@K12127 he just l like dWade
"Block radius" - how un-scientific do you want to get?
3:07
mfs superhuman out here 4 real
He's not 6'4 anymore. He's 6'6

@@aaronmbaye6498 6'4.5"
He needed oxygen in the conference finals just chasing Kyrie Irving. Mention that too,
Michael Jordan jumped way higher then Ant in the air and had more hangtime lol.

A bunch of useless, baseless nonsense. Ant is athletic, we get it.
Its fun to watch and great information on the sport etc its interesting.
Isn’t SGA the better two way player ?

His power is the arrogance. But it will ruin him soon or later.
I refuse to watch anything w Malika in it.
NBA worried about Ja fr.. Antman a glorified Donovan Mitchell
Do the sports science of Luka and Jokic lmao.
said a whole lot of nothing
Actually this was much better than I anticipated.
Why is malika still reporting?
Drug test Malika
ja morant better and morth athletic, and 2 inches shorter
Idk I would take Ant. Because of size, and defense
