The way Jordan humiliated Clyde drexler…SGA doing the same thing to ANT

[FukkaPaidEmail]

Ant is just as skillful, son shoots way too many 3's should prioritize midrange/attacking the rim/getting to the line. SGA gets it.

No he’s not .

Shai’s footwork,feel ,playmaking and mid range game is a level above Ants


Thats more of a compliment to Shai’s game than a knock on Ants

Ant is just not as smart a player as SGA. I'm not sure if he can get there either. Ant's shot selection is simply terrible. Dude can get to the basket at will and chucks up an insane amount of threes instead.

I get it in the sense that you don't want to D-Wade yourself and be injured going reckless with it, but Ant is just a fool with the jump shooting sometimes. Also, having the mid range game that SGA does will always keep you a tier above those who don't. Ant needs to work on his mid range game methodically this summer. He'd be unstoppable.

There is just some things you can’t teach ..and that footwork,game feel and craftiness that guys like Shai has is one of those things …That’s some shyt that has been developed from childhood because nikkas like Brunson,Cade or Sengun can’t just jump over nikkas like the super athletes like Ant can .. that’s a hole in his game that’s never gonna be elite …just like them other nikkas will never jump like him

Shai is a cheat code because he has that high level floor game with good athleticism

If we're going by them at 23 years old, Ant and Clyde are a wash

If we're going by year 5 in the NBA, Clyde was a superior player in the regular season to what Ant Man is at the moment. But Ant Man is in the conference finals while Clyde got sent home early in his 5th season.

people think ant is better than clyde

The fact of the matter is Ant needs to refine his fundamentals. Granted he is only 23 and has time. He also needs to grow up some. He is a future face of the league whether he wants it or not. I think he can do it.

I have been saying for years Shai has a 90s era game. He plays both ends of the floor has a really nice midrange game which actually facilitates the slash to the basket or the stepback depending on where he is on the court. He distributes within the flow of the offense.

90s game

his right to left crossover alone would have most 90s players baffled. He’d be top 2 in the 90s at worst, 1 @ best. yall gotta stop

You ever watch drexler play or even know who he is?

Ant is faster more explosive more athletic. Shai had better footwork more skilled. footwork can be taught. Athleticism cannot be. Ant can have a higher peak of he puts in the work and stays healthy. My only concern for Ant is his motor. seems he gets tired... then passive.

This where we are falling short as American hoopers

now that the game has become international athleticism isn't the end all be all.

Most of these international hooper come from sports foundations/cultures highly influenced by SOCCER.

A sport that emphasizes skill over athletisism...

Its why Embed,Joker, SGA, Luka ect... can all dominate without being siper fast or being able to jump super high...

American basketball needs to let the AAU bullshyt go and start ACADEMIES

 

[Goat poster]

Jaleen Green in the GSW series is what AAU has done to the sport

nikka never learned how to really play

we fallin behind and athleticism aint gonna save us

there are plenty american hoopers in that mold of using craft over athleticism

from a individual standpoint we are still ahead by a lot in terms of skills stateside

professional development gives the great euro players an advantage not in their 1v1 "bag" but in their understanding & application of playing 5v5 team hoops

we produce the greatest entertainers on the court

but that tunnel vision focus on the oohs & aahs part of the sport can prevent progress as a team player

Ant is imo, he just settles too much in regard to the 3 ball. and I'm not knocking SGA at all/gave him the ultimate props.

If Kyrie says Ant's footwork is top tier, then it is . Tape shows that though without him having to say it.

 

[HimmyHendrix]

Yes. he is not better than Ant Edwards. the same way Hal Greer is not better than Clyde despite similar averages.

development and evolution exist.

get this garbage outta here

Jordan was 28 when he first won his chip. . LeBron was 27. Shai now 26…(don’t got one yet) Ant 23. Cmon

Lebron went to a finals at 22... Timmy at 23... Magic at 20... Bird at 24.... Wade at 21.... KD/Russ at 23...etc.... don't use this type of logic.... Ant has been a pro for 4 years now... SGA game >>>> Hopefully this will be fuel for Ant to fine tune his game because the raw skills are there no question... at the end of the day this is a team sport and OKC has the better squad.... it was leaked that Ant was asking how to beat a double team for a reason

People wanna give Ant the youth past but omit that SGA's game at 23>>> than what Ant Man's game is now
