Ant edwards> Ja. Due to edward's jumpshot
Is Perk that stupid to recommend a homophobe-slur using player to be the face of the league or does he suffer from short term memory loss?
Trade kat for assets
I'm a AE fan but the face of the league?
In front of who?
Curry?
Luka?
Giannis?
Tatum?
Ja?
Jokic
Lebron?
Lillard?
KD?
Seriously dumb take Perk.
Everyone an all star this year lol
Better than KAT, don't care what the stats say
Nah Luka puts up a better number in his 2nd year and his still not all star
Face of the league? Please be serious!
Edwards will never be best player on championship team. He ain’t Kobe or Jordan. He will only win at #2 or #3 option
Perk is 100% correct per usual
Yes! Youngest person to 500 3 pointers in a career this season.
I dont care that its Perk saying it, feels good to hear the wolves get some love
Wolves didn't even need Gobert in the first place. They could've gotten better players/picks in that trade.
Ant’s shot is water
Character, charisma and a future Bull
Edwards being the face of the league is taking it to far, just talking about it is to far simply because there are guys on a completely different planet then Edwards can reach. Give him the keys to the team and maybe he can get there, but if he gets there then speak on it not now.
No one was throwing each other under the bus on the timberwolves. I live hear. I wstch every game. I listen to multituded of pods. I read online chat forums. I woulda heard about it. I am typically the news breaker when it comes to all things timberwolves and the nba.
So stop lying for ratings.
Edward's is amazing but idk if he has what it takes to lead.
They have not been the best backcourt
I lowkey want to see Zion and ant on the same team
He can go to the Bucks 😎😁
Wolves back
His shot selection is so bad tho
Fuk Kat I'm over that dude on the twolves.
Tell em Perk.
duh!
Perk just said Anthony Edwards could be the face of the league. 😭
Kat is the perfect compliment for Ant with is elite floor spacing and high end passing.
he is 100% an all star. should have been one last year too and he deserved that ROY award. feel bad that he’s on a same market team and he’s not getting the respect he deserves because of it
antman all nba
All star caliber, yes and he will be soon enough. A player that should make the few spots for his position in his conference this season? No
Ant is him
Edwards is the Face Of the franchise officially.
Raised by wolves 🔵⚪️🐺✅
Minnesota tiene que sentirlo cuando el empieza hacer disparates y a perder barios balones OK 👍
How is Ant NOT an all star???
No way he’s not an All Star!
Ant definitely needs to get more love from the media (and the refs). Hes one of the best players in the league already, elite offensively and defensively
His AC and fan are off, he's awoken
If Anthony Edwards isnt an all star, the timberwolves (6th place) will be the only team in the top 13 in the West without an all star this year. Not sure about the clippers, but thatd just be wrong. Ant shouldve been an all star last year instead of Wiggins and Dejounte Murray too
As a wolves fan I completely agree with perk. And in all honesty I don’t wanna see Kat come back we’ve been playing so well with him out and I think we should see what we can get for him on the trade market
Just go get the chip, since they ain’t giving
Facts!
He just does not deserve an all-star spot, simply because there is at least 5 players you clearly have to take over him without it beeing a discussion and the talent level is so high in the nba nowardays that you cant afford beeing as incosistent as ANT is. Shai, Ja, PG, Dame and Fox are clearly ahead of him this season and even one of them will miss out on a spot, how woul ANT get one?
ANT is a young russel Westbrook, who is a slightly better shooter and a way worse playmaker, but he has the same athelticism while beeing in the bottom 5% of the league in BBIQ.
Wow they just snubbed bro
Why all this media hates Minnesota?
Ant man is all star!!
Ant is expected to always be underrated for the whole of his career. Mainly because he was in the same draft as Lamelo. Lamelo effect pulled everyone just to see him and make him the only player get drafted in the 2020 draft. All others including Edwand went undrafted.
