    Ant is a more physical athlete with better form on his jumper and has that dog mentality that Jalen lacks

    Jalen is not at the same level as Ant, and never will be unless he completely revamps his game. The mechanics of Jalen's shot release are shaky, and players relying too much on speed and straight line drive are not gonna be efficient most of the nights. I do like one move Jalen did last night, he dribbled the ball to the left and made a wide open mid-range shot at the elbow, like what Chris Paul usually do in his prime. If he can tighten his handle, improve his timing and make that type of shots all the time, he can bring his FG% up another 5 to 10 percent. Paul is 6'0" and Jalen is a few inches taller than Paul, so theoretically Jalen could do better than Paul.

    This thread can be closed. Even if Jalen maxed out his potential I find it hard to believe he will not be on ANTs level. Anthony Edwards is a star.

    Ant is already a bonafide star…Jalen will most likely never be that

    it won’t even be close between the 2 of them

    Ant has no problem with the physicality of the league, is skilled, has killer instinct, and can shoot

    Jabari should start treating mismatches like mismatches. Use your body, man.

    Edit: F*ck, have to look which thread I'm posting to. Don't mind me.

    Really unnecessary post, and honestly all of your posts have been terrible. Recall clearly you trying to go at me for mentioning that JG MIGHT not be a max player a while back, and when I said over a year ago that ANT just seems like he has what it takes to be a super star and that JG was lacking, you again came with delusional posts. There is no way anyone will take you seriously on here again. :eek:

    Anthony Edwards is on another level. My goodness.

    Ant has has 1 year on Green… but wowowoowow. I legit see flashes of Kobe when Ant dribbles, and crosses over and shoots and dunks.
