This is a basketball forum, lets leave it at that.
I believe it's relevant to the basketball discussion.
Is Ant trying to beat LeBron to having his own team of offspring? Ant plus his 4 kids in 19 years?

Doncic is objectively a better basketball player than Edwards right now.
Edwards has so much potential... but there's no guarantee he'll ever become as good as Doncic is right now... or has been. In fact, it's probably unlikely.

The rub is the goodwill Edwards already has with this organization and fanbase. Imagine a new ownership group soon to be in negotiations for a new stadium doing so after the team traded both Towns and Edwards. Doncic is an AMAZING prize in return... but would we be worrying about Doncic opting out after next season since the super duper max option would be gone either way?

Ant had a good look. I like the shot. But it would be nice to see Ant start making those clutch shots at the end. Alas, Ant, Jaden, and Naz didn’t shoot well enough for us to win tonight. This was a bad loss. The Wolves have to win a game at home as the Bucks without Giannis. But you rarely win in the NBA when you score only 103 points. TSJ should have been in the game at the end instead of NAW in my view. Having another scorer out there could have helped a lot. And I don’t see any significant defensive drop off from NAW to TSJ.

Doncic is absolutely a better player than Edwards. However, Edwards is an all-star and a little over two years younger than Doncic. Will he ever be as good as Doncic? Impossible to say. I think they’re closer than it appears because Edwards is a better defender. Given his age, Edwards will continue to get better. And if he ends up topping out as something less than Doncic he’ll be on a list of great players who aren’t as great as Doncic.

I saw that!

10 points
14 assists
11 beaten-up women

Good to see him pumping up those numbers. I guess.

Warriors have won 9 of 10. Rockets have 3.5 game lead over Wolves. Neither team looks to have a particularly difficult schedule. The 6th seed doesn't look too promising at the moment.

Wolves have won 9 straight with Randle. Lakers might of just lost Lebron for the rest of the month

Phenom, take a look at the last 11 games on Houston's schedule- 7 of them are against the best teams in the West. They may have a sizable lead over us going into the last couple weeks, but we still have a decent chance of passing them.
