Recently, Timberwolves Edwards was interviewed by American media, and he commented on himself and Jordan, the god of basketball: "I hope they stop discussing, Jordan is the greatest player of all time, and there is still a big gap between me and him." ”
Edwards is already very physical, and his ball skills are getting better and better, while Jordan is completely against the sky. ** Taking the two as a comparison, it can only be said that they are similar, but the level gap is still very large, and Edwards is very self-aware.
But Edwards boasted that his offense was so strong that even Jordan couldn't defend him.
After all, the Timberwolves are now in first place in the West, and Edwards arrogantly said, "It's great to come out there and expect to win." I'm an old man, I'm in my fourth year with the team, and after I never played for the first three years, I was like, 'Oh, we're going to win again.' ’”
When brilliant talent is paired with an indomitable fighting spirit, Edwards is truly satisfied!
Then, I was slapped in the face by the speed of light!
In the game against the Mavericks on Dec. 15, Edwards scored nine points, two rebounds, 11 assists and five turnovers on 3-of-19 shooting.
In his last game against the Spurs, he scored 17 points on 4-of-17 shooting.
In the last 2 games, Edwards has made 7 of 36 shots and shot just 194%, averaging 13 points per game.
When the team boss collapses and can beat the Mavericks, a strong team in the West, the Timberwolves, who have been sinking for many years, should indeed be happy, and this season is really going to explode.
With the pace to take off this season, it's time for Edwards to metamorphose and compete for the face of the league's next generation.
Edwards and Butler are the ones who look most like Jordan on the active roster.
It's just that your dad is still your dad, and it's hard to guess whether there is a genetic connection between the three of them.
But in terms of combat power, look at Jordan's playoff and Finals stats, averaging 33 per game in his playoff career4. There has been an average of 40+ per game in the entire series of the playoffs, and an average of 40+ per game in the finals, or under the defensive intensity of the nineties, compared with the god of basketball, the gap is self-evident.
