[All-Access] “I’m matched up with you.” Victor Wembanyama and Anthony Edwards were mic’d up ahead of the All-Star Game.
These are the types of things that make the All-Star weekend fun
And it’s gotta be organic. Like, it can’t be a “Ant vs Alien Gatorade Tip-Off” thing next year.
yea, everyone knows aliens are sponsored by powerade
“Oh hell no, who put that here?”
Ant about to spend the whole offseason doing jump ball drills for his next evolution
He’ll get Beringer to sit on Rudy’s shoulders at practice
Inadvertently learns to dunk from the 3 point line
Mfer is going to do the first Double Jump in NBA history
It’s already been done in the MLB
in 20 years we’re gonna have discourse of how ass the NBA is and how players aren’t like how they were back than and this video is gonna be played lmao.
Every generation has some 24/7/365 nostalgia goggle wearers.
My dumbass thought this was a players avg stat splits
Shooting 365% would definitely be noteworthy.
Actual Wilt stat line
True story
Hopefully our Jordan v Hakeem for the next decade
.. In that there’s never a playoff matchup?
Good point. Kobe and Timmy then.
Same conference too so it tracks, we can only hope.
Wemby can get his while Ant tries XFL
Wemby is Jordan and Hakeem
Wemby played his ass off and Ant is right his team has no choice but to match it. All Star game is back. 😎
Ppl really over exaggerate how hard players use to play in the all star game
We are just asking for a semblance of a basketball game. Not lay up lines.
They just released 97 all star game. Go watch it. They were getting back in 2 seconds every time, all 10. Blocks everywhere.
This mighta been the hardest played all star game ever tbh (until the championship match, oldheads stopped trying after they went down big)
they definitely played harder for the ASG after Kobe’s passing.
Wemby has the opportunity to become goat not just because of his physicals, but his mindset. That’s the second thing that really stood out to me about him. He’s a kid in his own world to tear everyone else down on the court. Doesn’t care if he doesn’t look cool or no one else is doing it.
For sure man, I was a wemby hater before he got drafted but I am fully onboard with that alien. I still love my Ant-Man as #1 but wemby is by far my fave non MN player
That’s a smart way to motivate a guy like ant to play hard. Love this from wemby
He really just challenged Ant directly and Ant was like RUN IT I love these two against each other. Lol
Fck all the face of the league talk, i see two faces of the league right there
facts, Ant is too special to not be promoted alongside, I see it a bit like LeBron and Curry, not really connected by college like Bird and Magic but their clashes should always be televised
This is going to be the best rivalry going forward in the NBA. They both clearly respect and want to go at each other every chance they get.
I like Ant and Wemby because they seem like they want to beat the best instead of be best friends like the Bron-Wade-Melo-CP3 era.
Feels like we’re getting back to the Bird-Magic type of rivalries than millionaires doing their day job.
Jokic and Embiid felt so one sided and Luka spends more time fighting with refs or Dennis Schroeder for some reason.
I always hear ppl sayin this shit bout the banana boat era but it’s odd because
(a) They always skip the Cavs-Warriors era. They say “thank god we’re done with Bron/Melo/Wade/CP3 and can move onto Wemby!” like hello? Melo and Wade have not been relevant basketball players in a decade lmao. The Warrors/Cavs Finals had plenty of shit talk and antics. Shit was absolute peak
(b) Even during the banana boat era, we had some dope rivalries! For example, LeBron vs the Celtics was peak! They fuckin hated each other. Paul Pierce hates LeBron to this day. Kendrick Perkins said he prayed that LeBron would tear his ACL before Game 7 2008. Wtf yall on about 😭
It’s basically like if people in the future say “man the 2020s were so lame. remember how Jokic and Luka were best buds?” lmao
Also skipped the actual face of the league of that era in Kobe loll. Kobe hated everyone. Kobe-Pau vs the Big 3 celtics, Kobe always trying to go at Lebron whenever they matched up…
Cavs Warriors was good but KD joining in kind of killed it, or at least sucked a lot of the fun out of it.
Honestly, I think the better rebuttal of that perspective is that Wemby and Ant aren’t going at each other with vitriol like the 80s to early 90s. They’re just going at each other with a mindset that they want to win and prove their superiority. Which is definitely akin to Kobe, Bron, KD, Giannis.
Luka loves going at other stars, he talks immense amounts of shit. He’s just got that nonchalant media trained gimmick off the court.
Fr, can’t believe everyone has forgotten “everyone tough when they up” so soon lmao.
Have you seen the games between Bron and Wade? They might have been close friends, but those games were epic and must-see TV pretty much every time.
Wemby is a smart guy, went after the guy who would take it personal.
League is in good hands with these 2 as future faces of the league
Wemby was playing chess with Ant’s ego. Only problem was his own teammates didn’t care as much.
the 2 new faces of the league. one who says he wants it, and one who says he doesnt (ANT).
Yama is so pissed he gotta play on the European side with that duo lmaoooo
“Come on“
“Bring it”
Simple but cold as hell
anime rivalry type shit
everybody here talking bout Ant and Wemby and i’m here laughing at Coach Giannis’ secrit play lmao
“Wemby set the tone, he playing hard, we got no choice”
🐜
Nice love Ant and obviously as a Spurs fan I love Wemby. Hope the fanbases stay respectful and don’t make this toxic
wish the other guys from team world played as hard as wemby did
If Wemby and Ant are the future of the league its in great hands
Wemby is so baller. Said Bring it! Had ant do the jump ball, orchestrated competitiveness!
Lmao at Chet’s face when Ant’s mentioning Wemby.
Did not see it at first damn lmao. Shit will be great for my agenda.
Thank you Wemby
Love these two.
Spurs and Wolves meeting in the playoffs would be so much fun. It has to happen.
I died when I realized Chet was on Ant’s team lol
I really hope we face the t wolves in the playoffs would be some great energy
wemby le french bully
can you not grab it out of the air on a Jump ball?or is that against the rules?
The league is in good hands with dudes like Ant and Wemby
