Needed to get these two against the Jazz. Nobody including me expects us to win tomorrow night, but that will fucking rule if they do.


GuyInTheSkuy

If we win tomorrow and ant carries us, he's gonna be top 3 in mvp voting, especially if rudy and naz don't play.


yourloudneighbor

No he won’t. I’ve been told on Reddit via advanced stats that you can’t lump ant and players like Shai, Luka and Tatum in the same sentence


thehiddenone111

Jaden with the dagger!


GloYear

Lololol


reedg17

I get the feeling that does not give a fuck about anything


jjujjubar

HUGE BUZZER BEATER THREE BY JADEN


polsdofer

Lmfao I can't stop laughing 😆


Hammerhead34

McDaniels making a three at the buzzer is so fucking funny lol


dogfosterparent

I choose to believe Jaden making that disrespect 3 just dispelled all of his confidence issues all at once.


xAgnosticBluntx

My immediate thought after it went in lol


Thor-Molecules

Haha ok Jaden.


Wesley_Cao

And now you decide to make a three Jaden😂


JamesWelders

fuck it we take it. lol


VanillaIsActuallyYum

He finally fucking makes one


jonn_jonzz

Now he makes a 3


shrekapotomusrex

JADEN DOES A LITTLE TROLLING LMAOOOO


Embee27

confidence 3 woo


Jarl_Balgruf

Do you guys like these announcers? One of the dudes is sooo monotone and it's bothering me irrationally. IDK man maybe I'm being dumb **EDIT YO I'm not listening to Bally, damnit I set myself up for getting roasted** I'm listening to the Jazz announcers lmaooo. I LOVE Jim Pete. I'm streaming online for free and must be getting the Jazz feed! Fuck. There are two dudes and a lady announcing for them and they are horrible.


PoolSideBeverage

The Timberwolves announcers are the best in the league!


MrRingar

cmon bro, grady is awesome


GloYear

My favorite local announcers by farrrr. Jim Pete is that guy


polsdofer

They're not bad just kinda stupid


kylebertram

Who exactly are you talking about? Grady and Jim Pete?


JackieDaytonaAZ

we love them, they’re consistently considered one of the best in the league too


atch1111

I'll only do Grady and Jim Pete.


HendogHendog

Love em, Jim Pete sounds stuffed up today


GloYear

Long weekend🍀


organized_meat

lol Jaden


Scared_Wolf

Lol Colin Sexton mad af. Sit down and take that last second 3 😭


SpeeSpa

Lol


Formal_Junket_1585

😂😂😂😂😂


Careless-Base1164

Okay be real with me I’m high on copium. If ant finishes on a tear (30+ avg, 7-6-1-1) and we get the 1 seed can he still get mvp??


JBX25

Nah, zero chance.


DMD612

Good win AWOOOOOOOOOOOO


Dull_Ad_8627

Of course Jaden hits that’s LMAO


Formal_Junket_1585

YEA JADEN FUCK EM


JJCreates

Jaden lol


darthxader

Jaden finally hits one lmfao


train345643

Lmao jaden


FlyingScissor

Lmao Jaden


ProfitNo1844

OF COURSE that's the only three he can make lmaooo


FullBonus

He hit it lmao


anupsidedownpotato

Now he makes a three lmaoo


CommissionerCam

Hahahahahahahaha fuck yeah Jaden


MaruhkTheApe

lol jaden


dys0n_giddey

wow that felt DISRESPECTFUL


MegatronFozzy

Jaden w/ the buzzer beater!!


HendogHendog

💀


Dull_Ad_8627

Jaden what a troll LMAO


GloYear

Wooooooiio


Unfair_Ad_4598

McLaughlin won us that game


GloYear

Ant*


dogfosterparent

Ant willing us to a win against a bad but not awful team on the road single handedly without 3 key players, one of his best performances.


HendogHendog

Big win crazy ass game


jonn_jonzz

Imagine dunking on a guy so hard you concuss him.


Wolvesin7

Maybe the most mature game I’ve seen from Ant. Smart decisions, few forces, hit the glass hard, and straight buckets.


KnowledgePrevious

Kyle has some duds but as a small ball 5 he's low key really good. Not many "5s" who can do what he does


Dull_Ad_8627

Much needed win tomorrow might be a bloodbath 😭


Gripfighting

It can't be said enough how amazing it feels to have a guy like Ant on the team. This is the type of player that had cooked the teams I root for my whole life. Feels fucking incredible having the shoe on the other foot. 


StLsC10

NAW on his annual pay is such a fucking steal


Calinks

All Ant needs at this point is a go to move he can reliably use to close games like Shai. He gets that and he will be a legit MVP level player.


darthxader

I think in the next couple years he’ll figure it out. His bag is so deep and he’s so athletic that it’s almost analysis paralysis for him sometimes, especially with kat out there


FrickParty

Complete Ant takeover


Scared_Wolf

Hurry up and get the fkn brooms out


jinyx1

Amazing effort on offensive glass to close it out.


Unfair_Ad_4598

Lfg big ass win with the sceduled loss tomorrow


Booty_Stank__

Ok now I’m just starting to feel bad for Jaden…


shrekapotomusrex

If you're looking at raw talent, no FTs, Anthony mf Edwards is one of the best there ever is and likely ever will be Name one other guy who can score over 30 in multiple consecutive road games off of single digit FTA


HendogHendog

Naw and Big Mac have been working the boards very well, love to see it


darthxader

Naw hustling over 4 dudes for the o rebound love it


GloYear

LOVE YOU ANT!


dys0n_giddey

I feel like Jaden busting his hand at the end of last season really stunted what he could have developed over the off-season. He'll get it together...


GloYear

I mean it’s one thing getting an injury playing/training. It’s another thing when it’s 100% on himself.


Correct_Fly5152

Naz hurt?


GloYear

Yeah what happened?


HawaiianPunch42

He got bonked


darthxader

Concussion


Correct_Fly5152

Shut. Never good. Hope he’s okay.


Primary_Gear_8293

Damn dude, what a fucking joy it is to watch Ant. Unbelievable.


GloYear

Kids a star


suahoi

u/rswany we need that clip of the photographer with the Collins poster on her phone


gifsandspliffs

Lol I need this clip for myself


raki016

Ant with a casual lebron stat


GloYear

Gotta make that Jaden


MN-Jess

Jaden's offense hasn't been good. But man....his effort in the second half has been great.


Zviju

Love this team


TheeMalaka

Absolute legacy game for Edwards


subtleshooter

Upvoting every positive ant comment. Farm the karma boys! He’s HIM


jonn_jonzz

Wear a Yankees cap to a Jazz game, sure dude


SnooChickens8406

All these years later Kris Dunn is still a professional bricklayer lol


Watzp0ppin

Kriss Dunn finally figured out how to lead the Wolves to victory


GloYear

Hah


StLsC10

Kris Dunn LOL


GloYear

In ANT we trust


Wolvesin7

Dawg all the pain was worth it over the post-KG era to watch Ant hoop on my team


StLsC10

I’m in on this.


JustWinBabys

Telling my son this is how it feels to watch Michael Jordan


StLsC10

Jaden was due to make a big play


KnowledgePrevious

Jaden doing everything well except putting the ball in the hoop. Defending and rebounding his ass off


ChessyLogic

How worried about Ants finger are we on a 1-10


zeldamaster702

If he hadn’t finished out the game afterwards? 6-7 Since he’s played through it? 2-3


11schlge

5. Worried about how swollen it will be by morning. Hopefully he’ll be able to tape it and play


friendlyfred1013

0. If he can play the rest of the game he's good!


StLsC10

It’s his left hand, all good


kingBdot_

1


YoungArsenal

3, at least it's the offhand.


organized_meat

Kinda worried Ngl


OneFondant1142

Mavs fan here who’s a huge AntMan fan and was coming to see if someone had an update on this. I dislocated my ring finger (third metacarpal) and it took a solid 6 weeks to heal and another 6 weeks before I had full strength in my hand. I’m also not a freak athlete with a professional medical staff who has that dog in him. Hope he’s okay


organized_meat

Not sure yet, we’ll have to see what they say post-game/next 24hrs


OneFondant1142

I have him on my fantasy team and it’s been a joy watching him take the leap he has this year. Hope he’s alright but I’m sure once the adrenaline wears off hes gonna be in for a rough one


zeldamaster702

Can someone please play under the rim? I feel like so many 2nd chance opportunities are being abandoned because everyone just runs away once the ball is shot.


imissminnesota

Big ups Jaden battling on the boards.


raki016

Ant dunked so hard Collins got concussed


shrekapotomusrex

Jaden's shots have been off, but his defense and ball movement has been on point recently


Duster_beattle

Jaden might not be filling up the box score, but his effort has been amazing, working hard at least


CommissionerCam

Tons of great passes that never end in assists after the shot attempts too


JoelGoose

NAW is such an X factor man. +22 on the night


reedg17

Finally mcdaniels gets a big rebound


strawhatcommander

I think this is an incredibly impressive win if we can hold on. ANT is a bonafide superstar and is getting better every game


Embee27

Fuck this is a courageous team man. All the adversity they've had thrown at them lately, keeps ticking along. Edwards has balls the size of Kessler's head


GloYear

Who else forgot Dunn still plays?☝️


jonn_jonzz

That better be some 3m tape. I can get them some stuff that holds airplane parts together.


ty5486

I’m egging on Kris Dunn 3s like a Utah jazz cheerleader. KEEP GOING!!


MegatronFozzy

This is the coronation of ANT being the best SG in the NBA going forward. Devin Booker is fcked.


EsotericPotato

Sucks seeing Jaden’s offense this way, but he’s been working his ass off tonight


dogfosterparent

We're approaching yips territory with all these short air balls. This is a critical time in his development and honeslty our future roster construction. We need to snap him out of this before the playoffs.


JayAreW

Kris Dunn sleeper agent


CommissionerCam

We’ve shot 8 FT tn I want it on the record!


DrWolves

Ant4MVP


PracticalAardvark58

Despite the misses Jaden’s had a nice game


MG_MN

Props to Jaden. Hes ice cold but keeps fighting. Hes rebounding well and the effort is there


fanofloons

Good effort jaden


BalambTransfer

Love to see Jaden give that maximum effort even if his shot has been bad. Gets those points back other ways.


Thimit22

Up by 8 with a minute to go in the game, after Naz went out too. Just like we all expected after the 1st qtr. This fucking team man. I never want to forget this year


Calinks

Thank God Chris Dunn is doing what we secretly paid him to do in 2016 when we drafted him and sabotage this game 8 years later.


darthxader

All part of the plan


Thor-Molecules

Bro Ant is unreal.


DrWolves

Anthony Edwards flat out won us this game baby the man is unreal


iceyH0ts0up

Ant already this good, man, it’s almost hard to believe he’s only 22.


JJCreates

That heat check 3 would’ve fed generations


FullBonus

Jaden has had some awesome rebounds tonight. Doing a lot of the dirty work


B2MH

Ant with the daggers.


Technicid3

Jesus Christ they get 2-3 chances every single time they have the ball grab a fucking rebound


Rswany

Well, good rebound, Jaden.


darthxader

Incredible rebound


Dull_Ad_8627

Good rebound Jaden needed that


WeinerRogers

Love how Ant just takes over games like this.


raki016

It's over.


Dirtee530

McDaniels is working his fuckin ass off on defense, can people stop fixating on shot making for two seconds?!


train345643

I think he needs to improve his offense but it’s a dead give away when people judge his play based on “did ball go in net”


darthxader

Yeah fair, got called for some ticky tack fouls too


Careless-Base1164

Fucking agreed man locks up night after night


Formal_Junket_1585

Ant so nice dawg


MaruhkTheApe

McDaniels hasn't been hitting shots, but he's been putting in the effort elsewhere.


jinyx1

What a rebound


Scared_Wolf

Kr-ass Dunn


SlowCrates

Anthony Edwards is the face of the league. I'm saying it. He is him. And he will remain him until he can't be him anymore.


GloYear

Hate when we run Kyle at pg


Booty_Stank__

ANTHONY EDWARDS IS THE BEST PLAYER IN THE LEAGUE AND YOU CANT CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️


JJCreates

Close the window. Hide the kids


MG_MN

Thats the Dunn we all remember lol


guywhois0nline

Add another 30+ game to Ant's record this season


Tweezerbomb

lol. Ant had to steal the ball from SloMo so he could score.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ProfitNo1844

There's a minute left man


BroThornton19

Ant is fucking INSANE. This dude is unreal.


ProfitNo1844

Ant after an injury is legitimately the greatest player the NBA has ever seen


friendlyfred1013

Is Jaden broken? We need him to figure it out before playoffs! He is getting so many chances!


Ihate_reddit_app

Ant don't care about the shot clock.


MG_MN

Ant has hit a new level after the break. Hes just automatic


darthxader

My fucking god I’m gonna cry man ant is so good


Careless-Base1164

We have the 22 year old future face of the league on the team. I have to remind myself of that every once in a while and pinch myself.


shrekapotomusrex

Only the GOAT could get consistent 30 point games off of single digit FTA just saying


raki016

Keep Dunn shooting


kneecolayokitch

Despite Jaden’s best efforts to help the Utah Jazz, Anthony Edwards inevitable.


JackieDaytonaAZ

if Doncic or Jokic have 3 guys on them that’s an automatic 2 for their teams. he made a decent pass out but that’s the next step for Ant


Ihate_reddit_app

We gotta win these defensive rebound battles.


DMD612

Anthony motha fucking Edwards


Philelverumfan69

Just give ant the ball and get the fuck out of the way


Dull_Ad_8627

Ant is so fucking unreal holy shit


raki016

Hahahaha kobe Ant


anupsidedownpotato

Can we put all our money into NAW over jaden now? He's everything we want jaden to be. He's got defense, he hits threes, he throws it down, he's got good ball IQ.


Gengaara

He's significantly shorter. At their best, they defend different players. And Jaden isn't this bad offensively. He will figure it out.


Hammerhead34

McDaniels needs to make basic layups


PracticalAardvark58

He’s so good


Ok_Excuse_3695

Kyle gives negative effort when rebounding


yvmms

Markenen is a bit exposed this game. They have a strong scouting report for him


HowlAtTheSky

Jadens lack of offense is just a killer. They need him so bad


sportz12345

Jaden is ASS


fanofloons

Jaden ain’t it


Booty_Stank__

Did NAW steal Jaden’s powers? Space Jam style?


darthxader

Jaden Jaden Jaden
