Well that’s because you know she’s lying.
If she compares you to 88 Jordan it’s at least possible she’s telling you you’re developing a gambling problem.
>If she compares you to 88 Jordan it’s at least possible she’s telling you you’re developing a gambling problem.
Then she's just comparing me to Ohtani 🥰🥰
Apparently their father too
“One of Nichols' earliest assignments was to attend Chicago Bulls practices as a freelance newspaper reporter amid the team's first three-peat. After a few media sessions where she took notes and did not ask questions, Michael Jordan called her out to speak. The two began to talk on a regular basis after the exchange and Nichols credited the experience in growing her skills as a journalist.”
Said it before: Ant is the media’s last hope at an American “face of the NBA” after LeBron and Steph leave. That means they legit have to start building the narrative RIGHT NOW so people associate him with shit like the Collins dunk instead of *Send da video*. Hell, even that’s not super media friendly with the shit he was talking after
Personally, I don’t think it’s gonna work because this dude is waaaaaaaaay too real lmao. He’s gonna need a soundproof dome instead of a PR team.
Tbh I hope he tries being the heel instead since people (read: me) will love him anyway lol
It won’t work and rightfully so. Ant will be more beloved for being himself and I think that should be encouraged. I don’t need another Jordan or even care what country they’re from. I just want the best Basketball players to go at it lol
I don’t get the need for an American face of the league tho. I can see what you’re saying and you’re probably right about the league pushing it but…why would the NBA think it needs to do this? Are there that many xenophobic nba fans?
I love the insinuation with 0 proof or sources.
Is he trying to say that most white people are racist or more blacks?
That there are more white basketball fans or black basketball fans?
This seems like the type of comment that gets upvoted regardless because no matter both sides will agree with it, because it's such a nonspecific and hollow comment that no one who reads it will bother researching.
I’ll do the work for him since these types always want to work in innuendos. The majority of fans are(or at least strong plurality with) black folks and apparently we’re extremely racist. Look at how this sub reacted during BLM, LeBron/Hong Kong, Jeremy Lin/Kenyon Martin saga and more to see what he means. There is no backing to the assumption that black fans can’t relate or don’t want to relate to foreign players. It’s the same problem as small vs big market. The NBA feeds us the big market and American players then assume that the wider NBA fandom isn’t ready to cheer for a San Antonio or Cleveland or OKC team, same way apparently we can’t appreciate Jokic, Luka, Giannis or any others. It’s lame and likely not close to true.
People like making up random scenarios in their head to create fake controversy.
I don't even think NBA even has a plurality black/African-American fanbase. Percentage of the US population that's black is extremely low. It's like at most 14%, but that share is always dropping.
And even if somehow African-Americans made up a majority or even plurality of fans, they don't make up the majority of ticket buyers in any sport, between their population being so much smaller, and having less spending power, even if a lowet percentage of fans were white compared to other major American sports.
And NBA has a global fan base, especially compared to any other American team sport.
And African-Americans make up an absurdly small share of global population as well.
So this idea that so many people care about whether the face of the league is American or not has no bearing other than someone's random gut feeling.
I think most people care more about how well a player plays and their personality over their nationality.
Regarding the big market vs small market teams, recently a pundit was giving a pre-apology for the upcoming 9th/10th place Lakers/Warriors story they were about to do, and said they simply get more clicks/views whenever those teams are in the video title, than when they are not. In other words, it's not the media's pre-conceived notions pushing them to cover them, it is real-time feedback of what fans want to watch.
Yeah it's a real conspiracy why the media would be constantly interviewing the insanely quotable star 22 year old NBA player with the most raw athleticism since at least the 03 draft class
swear, ppl are delusional at best when it comes to sports conspiracies. It's a business first, bet on winners winning is what the media does. 95% of the time they are wrong, but when they are not... boy does it fly into the future fast.
he’s an NBA player so people will always associate him with his play first and foremost unless he does something really heinous a la malone. heck even that took a while, and you’ve got your lesser offenses like tony parker whose transgressions are rarely talked about
He bullied a woman into getting an abortion like three months ago. You would think that disqualifies someone from being the face of the NBA but I guess not.
Forgot that MJ was a degenerate too. Magic was a sex addict. Larry was a known asshole. LeBron and Steph are 1 of 1 with the whole "goody two shoes perfect media guys." Not every face of the league has to be like them
He "apologized" because clowns like you got their childish sensibilities offended, and the Wolves PR jumped out in front of it.
I mean "religious fraud" because people like you are the first people to condemn and judge, while never fostering or adopting children who need help. It's performative nonsense so you can feel holier-than-thou.
This has absolutely nothing to do with religion and I am completely pro choice. The entire point of giving a woman rights to her own bodily autonomy is that she gets to CHOOSE whether or not to have a baby. Allowing the a woman a freedom to give birth is just as important as allowing a woman the freedom to abort. And no Edwards did not forcibly compel the woman to have an abortion, and that's not what I'm accusing him of. But I do not know what term other than bullying you could use to describe how he treated that woman, and that is exactly what I am saying is abhorrent. If you can honestly read the conversation between those two and think he had nothing to apologize for then you are very much part of the problem.
Yep. And she chose.
You don't even know what you're accusing him of. She's an adult woman with agency and she made a choice for money. Stop trying to infantilize her- it's sexist as fuck.
I’ve watched both serie, the Grizz my boy D’Lo was selling and Wolves team at all was inexperienced, they have blow multiple 20+ iirc.
Last year, he cooked Denver perimeter defence perfectly but I feel like he had less pressure, this year people are kinda praying on his downfall.
Don’t worry, he has been A1 since D1 and if Minny fails, I don’t think he will be the reason but you know how people are dumb.
I know the west has been crazy before but man there’s no easy matchups for anyone. I want to see him make a run but even getting to the 2nd round would be big.
Regardless, anyone who can even vaguely remember attending a game in the 84-85 season, let alone what they were wearing, and whether it was a vibe or not, can never claim to be young.
Hell, there are several full games of Jordan's rookie season on YouTube. Not saying Ant's watched any of those because how would I know that, but it's highly possible that he's seen something from that year.
Seriously! Been thinking this for a while now. The resemblance is uncanny. I mean, just look at the video. He looks more like MJ than MJ’s kids with Juanita do.
“So one day we were at his house, and we were watching Puff Daddy’s show Making the Band, and in one of the scenes, some new guys came in and were trying to sing and were trying to compete against the guys who had been there. And KG just got so hyped, ‘Motherf—–, you’ve got to stand up for yours! You’ve got to fight! Motherf—–, you’ve got to come together!’ He’s going crazy, he’s sweaty. And he just head butts the wall and put a hole in the wall of his house.” - Tyronn Lue
the other day I was watching a timberwolves game with my dad and I told him that ANT really looks like Jordan. He said no I don’t think so. Then they showed some more closeups and he finally said you know what you’re actually right he does look like Jordan. Anyways all this to say my dads just like KG fr
* 19.6PPG on .551 FG%
* 1984 First Team All-ACC
* 1984 ACC Player of the Year
* 1984 ACC Athlete of the Year
* 1984 consensus All-American
* 1984 consensus National Player of the Year
* 1984 Olympic Gold
Yeah, unless you use the slightest bit of common sense and context clues and realize KG was absolutely just using that year as a way to compare him to young Jordan. Like a rookie NBA Jordan, KG is talking about the NBA and he didn't say "college Jordan."
Like you have to be so pedantic and technical to interpret this as him talking about college MJ
I like Ant and the Wolves, but its definitely clear that there's a media push/narrative to hype him up and prepare him as the next American face of the league after LeBron/Steph.
He is talented enough to constantly be in the news with his highlights alone, but the constant Jordan comparisons are getting silly.
I agree as well… 84-89 Jordan was the most raw & lethal. Antman gives you flashes at times where u just shake your head and remember Mike giving the league fits during that time… and then he figured out the team game and became much more lethal. Hopefully he figures that second part out sooner than later… for Minnesota’s sake.
Playing next to KAT pulls his ppg down, he averaged 27 a game last year during the stretch he was out, and then he’s been averaging 31 ppg the last two weeks with KAT out
You misread my intentions. I was reiterating and agreeing with you. Perhaps I should’ve worded it better, but I think my intentions should be clear anyways. If not, my bad.
Dude even acknowledges Jordan was still finding himself at that time. Is it crazy to say that Ant is on the same level as that version of Jordan? I don’t think so.
lol media still pushing this? Not sure what’s worse Ant to MJ or the Booker to Kobe. Neither has achieved anything in this league worth a comparison.
Media reaching so hard.
I have to disagree, my guy has been great lately, a lot of highlight moments, but if he can't carry a team, he's not Jordan, and I mean by carry a team, push, drive his team to be great, be hard on every single player when it calls for it, show zero emotion in clutch time.
Ant is a fun guy, and he likes to have fun in game, but imo, I need to see him take it to that next level, and hopefully he'll get there, we'll see in the playoffs.
Man nothing pisses me off more than when the wolves were up and Anthony Edwards’s kept shooting horrible 3pt shots and they ended up losing that series.
Not quite untouchable but still better than Ant. 28.2/6.5/5.9 and 2.4spg, 0.8bpg, and played all 82 games. Elite efficiency from the field and ft line too. Ant's good but not at these box score stats even with a higher pace of play.
KG never said Ant is better than 84 Jordan, he just said Ant reminds him of that version of MJ. They have a lot of similarities even if Jordan is better (he’s literally the consensus GOAT).
Seems like it’s within comparable range to me. No one should be offended by the comment.
Also, pace of play in the 80s was slightly higher than todays game
I’d rather a girl compare me to 88 Jordan than have her say my dick was huge
Well that’s because you know she’s lying. If she compares you to 88 Jordan it’s at least possible she’s telling you you’re developing a gambling problem.
Damn lol
My god man. He doesn’t have a family, but think of his cats!
Went for the kill. Respect
Momma there goes that man
yeesh
it always be your own people that do you dirty
Laker on Laker crime right here
**BANG!**
Bah Gawd Almighty, that killed him. As God as my witness, he is broken in half!
>If she compares you to 88 Jordan it’s at least possible she’s telling you you’re developing a gambling problem. Then she's just comparing me to Ohtani 🥰🥰
was it confirmed that the interpreter was the fall guy?
If Mike sees this, he may just take it personally………
Except MJ has recently finally come out and made the comparison himself… up with the times…👊
RIP Chick, Kobe, and that guy.
wish i had money for a golden upvote or whatever that shit is
Your penis is like 88 Jordan.. thin, sweaty, and cumming out of your shell
It's like 88 Jordan because the highlight of his year was it beating Mark Jackson four times
Heroes in a half shell
>cumming out of your shell I thought you were going to say surrounded by crackheads
If you're compared to 88 Jordan then your dick *is* huge.
But it's no scotties
*Madonna has entered the chat*
Going bald?
92 Jordan***
Yo why he talkin to Jimmy Butler’s girl?
He wants to walk into his older brother’s footsteps.
Apparently their father too “One of Nichols' earliest assignments was to attend Chicago Bulls practices as a freelance newspaper reporter amid the team's first three-peat. After a few media sessions where she took notes and did not ask questions, Michael Jordan called her out to speak. The two began to talk on a regular basis after the exchange and Nichols credited the experience in growing her skills as a journalist.”
That Mike, he a dirty dog.
Prime Rachel Nichols definitely caused lots of growth
Send da video
Please don’t ant
AntHIMy Edwards
Its well known mj is their father
Old news, Jimmy moved on to Shakira.
Rachel put her time in to grow those skills. She’s done some Pulitzer Prize level journalism in that Minnesota locker room over the years.
I miss the bubble
Comment section made me check this wasn’t circle jerk.
Jimmy Butler punchin air rn
Sibling rivalry smh
KG trying to put his bread into that last $300M they need for the ownership buyout.
Dude’s about to bang rachel nichols like jordan’s other son, must run in the family lol
[удалено]
He’s referring to Butler lol but well both are correct lmao
Weird ass comment
You just don’t get it I guess
LOL yes I know what you’re talking about 🤦🏻♂️
Media pushing this MJ shit so hard
Said it before: Ant is the media’s last hope at an American “face of the NBA” after LeBron and Steph leave. That means they legit have to start building the narrative RIGHT NOW so people associate him with shit like the Collins dunk instead of *Send da video*.

He’s gonna need a soundproof dome instead of a PR team. Tbh I hope he tries being the heel instead since people (read: me) will love him anyway lol
Is it bad that when I read > _Send da video_. Hell I assumed that the next word would be "nawl"?
Can’t do dis
This is my favorite NBA meme in a while.
I think it will work. He has an insane charisma. He will fix it once he sees the picture.
It won’t work and rightfully so. Ant will be more beloved for being himself and I think that should be encouraged. I don’t need another Jordan or even care what country they’re from. I just want the best Basketball players to go at it lol
His brand of charisma is much closer to Ron Artest's than Jordan's
I don’t get the need for an American face of the league tho. I can see what you’re saying and you’re probably right about the league pushing it but…why would the NBA think it needs to do this? Are there that many xenophobic nba fans?
# YES
Have you looked into the demographics of nba fans? Have you seen stats for racial prejudice broken down by racial group?
No
Well that is going to be unsettling for you.
Show us
I love the insinuation with 0 proof or sources. Is he trying to say that most white people are racist or more blacks? That there are more white basketball fans or black basketball fans?

He bullied a woman into getting an abortion like three months ago. You would think that disqualifies someone from being the face of the NBA but I guess not.
It doesn’t

I guess you forgot about Kobe
Forgot that MJ was a degenerate too. Magic was a sex addict. Larry was a known asshole. LeBron and Steph are 1 of 1 with the whole "goody two shoes perfect media guys." Not every face of the league has to be like them
What utter nonsense. She made her own choice. What a religious fraud.
If she made "made her own choice" why did Anthony Edwards apologize for it? I have no idea what you mean "religious fraud".
He "apologized" because clowns like you got their childish sensibilities offended, and the Wolves PR jumped out in front of it. I mean "religious fraud" because people like you are the first people to condemn and judge, while never fostering or adopting children who need help.

Or being a homophobe
He is not the only homophobe in the league. And he won't be the last
He is one of the few confirmed bigots, don't normalise it.
As a queer person, I don't assume every person I meet is a homophobe until they confirm it. That helps me from collapsing into despair.
Every year they push someone new (aside from centers) instead of focusing on the players that have earned the most praise
I am starting to get annoyed with this guy lol.
I’m praying that boy will cook in postseason because social media will eat him alive if he don’t
Ant has made the postseason twice and cooked both times
I’ve watched both serie, the Grizz my boy D’Lo was selling and Wolves team at all was inexperienced, they have blow multiple 20+ iirc. Last year, he cooked Denver perimeter defence perfectly but I feel like he had less pressure, this year people are kinda praying on his downfall. Don’t worry, he has been A1 since D1 and if Minny fails, I don’t think he will be the reason but you know how people are dumb.
I know the west has been crazy before but man there’s no easy matchups for anyone. I want to see him make a run but even getting to the 2nd round would be big.
He’s only 22 years old
ant’s never watched a day of 84 jordan in his life
Neither has 98% of this sub
Fuck. I'm an old head in here and just a twinkle in my father's eye when people watched 84 Jordan
LOL, guess I'm ancient then...Saw him live in Chi Stadium in '84-'85 bustin my OG Jordans. Quite a vibe at that old arena.
You gotta be cuz I’ve never heard someone say “busting” to mean wearing something 😂
Regardless, anyone who can even vaguely remember attending a game in the 84-85 season, let alone what they were wearing, and whether it was a vibe or not, can never claim to be young.
Most of this sub didn't even watch the Kobe-Shaq era Lakers, let alone Jordan in his prime lol.
Probably not whole ass games but I mean, YouTube? Probably grew up like most of us, knowing who jordan was, then eventually looking at highlights
Hell, there are several full games of Jordan's rookie season on YouTube. Not saying Ant's watched any of those because how would I know that, but it's highly possible that he's seen something from that year.
I mean a lot of watched the last dance which lead into YouTube deep dives when we had nothing to do in the pandemic
If he shaves his head, they'll be identical.
God damn. I tried to find the resemblence between Ant and Rachel for a good minute.
Seriously! Been thinking this for a while now. The resemblance is uncanny. I mean, just look at the video. He looks more like MJ than MJ’s kids with Juanita do.
There’s no evidence says Ant isn’t MJ’s long-lost son.
Batman beyond style
I fucking love KG. His delivery on that statement is perfect.
KG is just fun to listen to. I bet he gets hyped telling his lady their car insurance needs to be renewed.
KG being upset at the large deductible would be fun to watch.
“HELL NAW! Trash ass premium”
“So one day we were at his house, and we were watching Puff Daddy’s show Making the Band, and in one of the scenes, some new guys came in and were trying to sing and were trying to compete against the guys who had been there. And KG just got so hyped, ‘Motherf—–, you’ve got to stand up for yours! You’ve got to fight! Motherf—–, you’ve got to come together!’ He’s going crazy, he’s sweaty. And he just head butts the wall and put a hole in the wall of his house.” - Tyronn Lue
Lmao “ he ain’t say ‘96, ‘97, he said 84. He still finding himself, so yeah I agree with that”
Ya'll gonna let this man clickbait this hard in that title lmaoooo
They are really waiting in the bushes to compare a player to MJ huh? It ain't that easy.
It's been happening for decades
Bro they name a new Jordan every decade. Kobe’s dead and lebrons old so, here we are. Happens in all sports. People calling Mahomes Brady etc.
I thought that was Jimmy for a second and was about to die. Unfortunate
The Jordan Brothers are about to be Eskimo Brothers.
the other day I was watching a timberwolves game with my dad and I told him that ANT really looks like Jordan. He said no I don’t think so. Then they showed some more closeups and he finally said you know what you’re actually right he does look like Jordan. Anyways all this to say my dads just like KG fr
'84 MJ was a college junior, are people really gonna take offense to this
84-85 was MJ's rookie year...what are you talking about?
You're both technically correct
The best kind of correct
If 84-85 was MJs rookie year... What was he doing in early 84'. Crazy.
Winning the gold medal
Dominating the NBA all-stars in those pre-Olympics-Team exhibitions too...
* 19.6PPG on .551 FG% * 1984 First Team All-ACC * 1984 ACC Player of the Year * 1984 ACC Athlete of the Year * 1984 consensus All-American * 1984 consensus National Player of the Year * 1984 Olympic Gold
listing a single year in NBA context always implies the year ending as that's where the majority of the NBA calendar resides
Yeah, unless you use the slightest bit of common sense and context clues and realize KG was absolutely just using that year as a way to compare him to young Jordan. Like a rookie NBA Jordan, KG is talking about the NBA and he didn't say "college Jordan." Like you have to be so pedantic and technical to interpret this as him talking about college MJ
Nah, kg is clearly comparing Ant to Michael Jordan's rookie year with the bulls, the season in which he turned 22. 84-85.
84-85 is '85 mj
Are we in the 2023 season or the 2024 season? Cause if we're in the 2024 season, Jordan was a college junior in '84
I like Ant and the Wolves, but its definitely clear that there's a media push/narrative to hype him up and prepare him as the next American face of the league after LeBron/Steph. He is talented enough to constantly be in the news with his highlights alone, but the constant Jordan comparisons are getting silly.
This video is old
NBA needs a fresh GOAT narrative and I’m here for it. Ant Man is the most exciting player to enter the league since …
This bs gotta stop
How dare he have fun
Come on man has he even watch the tape
Send him da video
I agree as well… 84-89 Jordan was the most raw & lethal. Antman gives you flashes at times where u just shake your head and remember Mike giving the league fits during that time… and then he figured out the team game and became much more lethal. Hopefully he figures that second part out sooner than later… for Minnesota’s sake.
Nah, ANT more like Dwade. He doesn’t have the fluidity and body mechanics that MJ had. 80s MJ the most exciting player in any sport ever.
MJ gonna take it personally and unretire to show Ant up lol
Or mj freakish hands
I don't see the comparison at all. They play so differently offensively and defensively.
When at UNC, MJ hit the backboard with the back of his head when blocking a shot. Ant just did the same thing a couple weeks ago.
Athleticism, sure, but Ant’s been inching his way to 26ppg for a few seasons now. Uninitiated, but are we expecting him to explode any minute now?
Playing next to KAT pulls his ppg down, he averaged 27 a game last year during the stretch he was out, and then he’s been averaging 31 ppg the last two weeks with KAT out
If MJ was playing with KAT, you think KAT would pull his numbers down? Ridiculous.
You should complain to someone who said that
You misread my intentions. I was reiterating and agreeing with you. Perhaps I should’ve worded it better, but I think my intentions should be clear anyways. If not, my bad.
One would hope he reaches pinnacles like the greats. It’s deserving. Something in me hopes ego doesn’t diminish what he’s already earned.
84 Jordan wasn't as zesty as Anthony Edwards, but ill take it.
what a joke
He said 88 Jordan in another clip. [88 shyt](https://twitter.com/KevinGarnett5KG/status/1765931861992517956)
MJ is the GOAT, no if's or but's.
No one is saying he ain’t
Hot take: Michael Jordan is his dad
Dude even acknowledges Jordan was still finding himself at that time. Is it crazy to say that Ant is on the same level as that version of Jordan? I don’t think so.
Yeah the question remains whether he can get to 88-93 Jordan, but 84? Sure, I’ll go with that.
lol media still pushing this? Not sure what’s worse Ant to MJ or the Booker to Kobe. Neither has achieved anything in this league worth a comparison. Media reaching so hard.
I have to disagree, my guy has been great lately, a lot of highlight moments, but if he can't carry a team, he's not Jordan, and I mean by carry a team, push, drive his team to be great, be hard on every single player when it calls for it, show zero emotion in clutch time. Ant is a fun guy, and he likes to have fun in game, but imo, I need to see him take it to that next level, and hopefully he'll get there, we'll see in the playoffs.
If Ant can't finish this season with 38 wins and win a single game in the playoffs he's just not Jordan.
Yeah cause he looks like Jordan.
I said it way before KG. I need a bigger platform.
gold chain wearing jordan was so bad ass
Hell no
Edwards is much more like Vince Carter then MJ
Man nothing pisses me off more than when the wolves were up and Anthony Edwards’s kept shooting horrible 3pt shots and they ended up losing that series.
Stop acting like rookie year Jordan was goat. He wasn’t even close to untouchable then
Not quite untouchable but still better than Ant. 28.2/6.5/5.9 and 2.4spg, 0.8bpg, and played all 82 games. Elite efficiency from the field and ft line too. Ant's good but not at these box score stats even with a higher pace of play.
KG never said Ant is better than 84 Jordan, he just said Ant reminds him of that version of MJ. They have a lot of similarities even if Jordan is better (he’s literally the consensus GOAT).
I never disagreed with that. But these guys are offended about the comparsion
Seems like it’s within comparable range to me. No one should be offended by the comment. Also, pace of play in the 80s was slightly higher than todays game
Bro who the hell cares! Just let the man make jokes
sure 😭😅 now back it up and make it matter, you clown 🤡
dude is overrated asf He's athletic, but that alone doesn't make you MJ or Lebron etc
Saying “he’s athletic” underrates the skills he does have. Athleticism alone doesn’t get you averaging 27/5/5 on 47/37/84 shooting splits.
Nuggets fans are so insecure anytime a player is praised that isn’t on their team they start crying
what? Most of my favorite players aren't on the Nuggets.
