The REAL Reason Why Michael Jordan CAN’T HELP Anthony Edwards according to Gilbert Arenas as No Chill Gil & the Gil’s Arena Crew react to the reports of Anthony Edwards reaching out to Michael Jordan for help on how to break a double team and discuss why it was crazy for the Minnesota Timberwolves superstar to reach out to the NBA GOAT when he hasn’t touched an NBA court in nearly 20 years.

Are you dumb current players always help and train with current players Lebron and kd use to workout together when thy both was in they prime and going at it for best player in the league, curry Has trained with Steph , the list goes on and on lol I wish more dudes would work with Kyrie he’s literally the most skilled player ever imagine a guy like Tyrese maxey working out with Kyrie and adding some of Kyries bag to his ky can help with him finishing around the rim with soft touch doing his lay drills that are unique to Kyries training on top of tht all The different moves he has in his arsenal if maxey gets a little bit of that in his bag who tf gon guard him that boy too fast 😭 but i say all tht to say this there’s no reason why a guy wouldn’t give advice or train with a younger player or someone looking to get better this league is different back in the day alot of these guys actually are cool off the court or have a enough of a relationship to text each other and link for a workout or whatever but tbh Gil is kinda right I don’t agree with all his takes sometimes and. I know some of yall like to think he hating or “ acting like He knows what he’s talking about “ as yall say lol but on this specific topic I agree if I was ant I woulda asked James harden , Kyrie , curry guys like that who are somewhat similar in height and has faced countless double teams and routinely beats them Devin booker is another guy or jus watch more film and do the research yourself on top of that id tell my teammates in practice double me in practice the way you would a scoring threat in a real game and then ant can jus practice stuff and try new things without having to wordy about any expectations or anything like that since it’s practice ant also needs to get his bag up if he gets more go to moves and counters he’d be something should work on his middy game with implementing some moves to help his post game Phil handy could help him with tht he trained Kobe and he was. A lethal mid range player ant can definitely shoot the 3 but he’s best whn he’s goin down hill being athletic he reminds me of young Jordan/. D wade he could quite literally be the best player in the league id take him over shai idc what nobody says ant could be unstoppable i wish he didn’t shoot thr 3 like hes a 3pt specialist or something I feel like hes settling for tht ever since the Olympics he’s been shooting way more 3s last season it was more interior and him leaping over people yeah he’d shoot but he was slamming tht mf down on anyone

Lol. There was a survey before on legends of their craft, they were asked if they still continue to do what their best at and only 10% answered yes. Like most of them only kept the most important instruments or other stuff and they kept it as a furniture in their house never touch or use it again for decades until they die. Their reasoning was for them after they retired they felt freedom for once in their life and those things are the reminders of their sufferings so they vowed to never use it again and for them to try new things in their lives. Do you think MJ will have a different mindset than them? For the most part he suffered atleast x2 than these people.

[@virgillesaca]

Bingo!

[@galactic4830]

The premise isn't wrong, but the execution could be seen poorly. You can ask for help, but if you're asking the wrong person for help, you won't be able to maximize the knowledge they're trying to pass down. Application to the game and to the player themselves matters. Can't be asking a predominant offensive ISO-scheme player who has the ball 99% of the time on defensive moves or how to play zones if that's not part of their game. But I agree, if I was Ant, I'd reach out to my father MJ too if I needed help.

It's simple. MJ played before they made illegal defense legal.

He split double teams great -- PAUSE PAUSE PAUSE.

[@lcasanova2546]

ANT MAN WENT TO THE GOAT WHO HAPPEN TO BE A SG AS WELL IF MIKE SAYS THIS IS WHAT I WOULD DO IF I WERE YOU IM LISTENING 💯

[@sportstalkonly1442]

Jordan ain't even play vs zone. Why don't ANT ask his 🐐 KD?

[@TheNiners6949]

😂🤡

[@choboy6238]

Biggest lie ever told on the internet

[@antwaunharris2064]

What?

[@sportstalkonly1442]

​@@choboy6238 what's the lie?

[@sportstalkonly1442]

​@@antwaunharris2064fym what? You speak English right?

[@eyes2338]

Yes , he can. Teach him to post up and kick out if he gets tripled.

[@Thestonerzclub]

5:17 swaggy and b childish 😂😂😂

[@uptbo2025]

Rashad McCants might be Gil’s biggest troll other than Kwame Brown

[@EricK-ir8np]

MJ can help MORE THAN ANYONE! 🐐🐐🐐

[@2paclife14]

“Well he can’t call Kobe….” 😭 “My bad that’s a bad joke “ man swaggy 🤣

[@SewlVintage]

Gil is such a controversial contrarian. MJ advice definitely could help Ant Man.

[@voiceofreason2743]

This was a good set. Very informative, entertaining, and they weren’t yelling over each other. This is the best podcast when they do that

[@Mr88saved]

They and Paul Pierce spund dumb for criticizing him for asking for help from the arguably the best player this league has seen about anything basketball related

[@SuperCarson81]

Gil made a point. The game is different, the rules are different. Ask current guys who faced doubles because the game rules apply

[@SleepyySev]

Yall mad at him for texting his dad but bronny gets to play with his? Smh

[@andreasmakoben2455]

What he’s saying isn’t wrong. The way double teams are handled now is drastically different from how they were in the 90s-it’s not even up for debate. Kevin Durant could offer him valuable advice; just look at how he taught Ant to shoot during the Olympics.

[@bink.com13]

facts i feel as though anytime mj is mentioned they automatically feel the need to protect him instead of using their brains. The game is waaaay different from the 90s i think ant should seek help from a more modern player

[@sideshowbobsaget8876]

😂😂you've never seen a game from the 80s-90s 😂😂it's easier to score in today's game. There are no new defensive schemes. KD studies Jordan 😂😂

[@taketheshotmmc]

Bro mj mastered the game and he can still see the game just like w coach can without playing. See this why I can’t stand gils hot takes or his horrible dress game 😂

[@James-l6x2k]

Gil I hate you you said what year we in😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@gammalife7510]

The MJ shade is diabolical 😂😂😂😂

[@dylanparx]

DWADE woulda been the perfect guy to call … was the best at splitting doubles also

[@darthosnop]

Gil, Jordan will always be better than you. Don’t be salty now

[@Marhallmob5]

Ant with MJ/Kobe post game is obviously needed. Mid range needs work. It would be easy to him.

[@RaheemC26]

😂 thats wild i was actually thinking to myself what if Ant reaches out to MJ for advice & i see this 😂 … MJ isnt too old neither to teach Ant . Hakeem was teaching Giannis & other players in todays game

[@IJ_Curtis]

In my opinion, I think the Wolves should consider implementing the triangle. The offensive was built for players with Ants talents and skills. That offense will allow him to catch the ball in positions that would discourage a double team or allow him to make a play before it came. It worked for Jordan and Kobe. I believe Ant is good enough to make it work as well.

[@ren.nshrimpy]

When you watch the game teams really be sending help from every angle

[@Rqs79]

I still remember the story Kevin Garnett said about him and Kobe getting advice on how to improve their Defense from Gary Payton at the All-star game. Gary Payton was one of the best defensive guards in NBA histor(one of only two point guards ever to win DPOY). That's the guy to learn from and that is how you move the game forward.

[@ovotre]

Kyrie don’t get enough credit in this league and it’s crazy. He’s the best person to call simple as that

[@cheetahturner4576]

Dude why woyld kyrie help dude in west lol u fool

[@WrongButtonWB]

Gil, you should've know this "universal rule" already, but never to late to learn: "There are no stupid questions, just stupid answers." And man, you sure are proving this rule as a fact, every damn time.

[@drehinton3835]

These Cats lame ...on hating on ANY advice MJ gives them

[@slimarkane5735]

Rashad summed it up at 11:11 “Let me text Mike because I want them to know I’m talking to the best”
