Anthony Edwards“The game is often compared to Michael JordanIn social media. Also, Edwards seems to accept this personally. According to the reports, Jordan recently contacted Edwards to request guidance for double team processing. However, this did not do well with the former NBA player, Gilbert ArenasS
As the teams constantly send couples and traps to it, two-time All-Star Edwards must fight hard for every basket this season. According to Arenas, however, the concept of protecting the double team has changed with the game and regulations since MJ’s time. Therefore, Jordan’s technical expertise is out of the whole idea.
“What year are we in? Which year did Michael Jordan double? Thus, the double teams that MJ saw with the illegal defense rules will not even apply here. Like the concept, I understand it, I just double the “what are you doing?”

Jordan was used to being a match because he was one of the biggest goalscorers of all time. Compared to other players of his generation, Jordan most probably saw the most twin teams. In the end, he realized how to beat double cover because he saw so much of him that he stopped worrying him.
But as Arenas said, the rules that MJ had to follow in the 1980s and 1990s are different from those of today. The areni also discussed how MJ and Ant face different double teams because of their relevant play styles. Therefore, it would be better if Edwards sought knowledge from someone who had encountered similar problems in today’s era.
Anthony Edwards earlier made a clear recognition because of “double-teamed”
After completing 56-26 and reaching the finals of the Western Conference last season, the Timberwolves record dropped to 17-16 on January 2, after losing 118-115 to Boston Celtics. Anthony Edwards, who shot 5 out of 16 for 15 points, six assists and two turnover, had a difficult game. After the match, Edwards spoke a lot about the double teams he was against.
“They double me, it’s definitely like,” bro, what’s going on? “I try to understand it … I don’t know what to do honestly, but it’s not fun. I don’t want to look like I’m not trying or not as good as I am, because I’m, but I can’t show it because I get a double-disc.“

Almost all of the media after Anthony Edwards play was to talk about his dissatisfaction with the way his teams put two, taking away his ability to be a goal scorer and to force him to get out of the ball.

In general, Edwards were as productive as the previous season. He has also expressed his dissatisfaction several times this season. It can become even more distinct if his team is unable to acquire another star to contribute more abundant. Even if there is still time to improve things unless significant reinforcements are gaining, Edwards may not be destined to remain in Minnesota.
Timberwolves recently won consecutive matches, having a record of 25-21 in the NBA. It remains to be seen what happens afterwards with Edwards and Timburus, who goes forward during the season.
