Michael Jordan on his conversation with Minnesota executive about Anthony Edwards: “That’s the highest respect that ANT can ever get if a team feels like they need to double team him.”

1. He did a pretty good job breaking that double team last night

2. God damn we are lucky we got Ant man.

3. It’s actually unreal how much teams fear him. New Orleans had two guys picking him up 45 feet from the basket and he would still score on them pretty regularly.

4. Mike being a butter pecan guy is another point towards the goat conversation. 

5. Last night when Jim Petersen said “Ant is putting on the cape now” I knew he was gonna get the W. His offense is such a thing of beauty. When he wants to attack and get to the rim I feel like nobody can stop him.

6. With how the mods have been I’d expect them to remove this post because MJ isn’t related to the wolves

7. mj must have given some great advice, ant is executing it well. he’s attacking the second guy and just outrunning them to the cup at times. he’s had so many layups this year it’s been fantastic to see. if he were to get any type of whistle for a player his status, avg would be insane. love the balanced scoring attack this year, still want to see more mid range jumpers off of screens and post ups.

8. Build a statue already. Fuck it. Make it 10, no 100 stories high.

9. That’s the highest respect that ~~Ant~~ my son can ever get if a team feels like they need to double him.

10. It just feels unreal hearing Ant’s name coming from Jordan himself. So blessed to have him on the team.

11. Man listen to guys like MJ, Bron, Kobe, etc talk about hoops is just so interesting. Its awesome to see the literal basketball goat talk directly about Ant specifically too

12. Talking like a proud father.
