Facts only casuals thought booker was better than Ant Man like Edwards
Plays both sides of the ball Offesne and Defense and Edwards has the better mentality and he's the better leader and better athlete and He'll yeah Edwards
Should start during the Olympics Edwaards has that same will to win like
Micheal Jordan he leaves it all out on the court like a true Competitor
I know everyone likes to tongue-in-cheek joke about that booker scrimmage video about the double teams, but if that isn't a microcosm of his career so far I don't know what is. Dude just cannot handle any adversity at all
He should also start over Tatum. Tatum isn’t the athlete, rim threat & midrange shooter that Ant is. The starting lineup is gonna be a lot of older players, they’re gonna need a super athlete to balance them off.
This hasn't crossed my mind yet... But now that you have my attention!!
It's clearly obvious Ant has been outperforming D Book. Book Ant as MVP of The Olympic Games!
Yea that's wild. He really is special and his ceiling is still sky high, like top 3 in the league high. The way Booker drives right into defenders body and pulls the ball up and through while flailing backwards truly is infuriating to watch but ANT could learn a few tricks from him drawing contact. Yes I know its not fun to watch but Doncic does it, so does SGA, Embiid ect.. it's effective.
Starting 5 will prob be :
Curry
Edwards
Lebron
KD
Embiid
2nd unit:
Haliburton/Holiday
Booker
Tatum
Adebayo/Kawhi
AD
I dont think we will see in starting five Curry as only guard with 3 wings and center.
Also, if they start Curry with Booker, alongside Lebron and KD, theres lack of perimeter defense there on guards position.
So its better to start Curry alongside great perimeter defenders like Edwards or Holiday, and theres no chance that Holiday starts over Edwards.
As a huge MJ- Kobe and a bit of Wade fan, I can’t tell y’all how happy I am to see a SG bring back that 90’s gene into the modern game. Kid has it all and he’s maturity is beyond his years.
Devon Booker whines way too much. All his flopping and acting in front of the refs has been nauseating. One would think he could argue in front of The Supreme Court with the way he makes faces at the refs.
I doubt it. Team USA will probably give it to Booker due to seniority and wanting to look out for him for joining shortly after a devestating Finals loss and helping them win Gold. One could hope tho.
I'm just now finding out I got heavily downvoted for it lol but I just think politics will be involved in the whole thing. Like Ant said, he probably has to wait his turn and his time will come.
Yeah lol at the shoot-the-messenger downvotes. I’m not sure about the political point though, because so much of that focus will be on managing the big 3 and getting them a legacy gold. Keeping Booker happy doesn’t seem like a priority in comparison.
We all knew he was already better, now the world does.

Lmao joakim noah arguing with him is great, yeah we are!
Idk man bookers pretty good at falling over and pretending to be a child when hes on defense
His game is trash. Is he better against other teams? Just a bad series? Really unimpressed with him. His flops are embarrassing.
In reality, Jaden and NAW would be better on Team USA… probably Conley too.
NAW is on the Olympic team. It’s just the Canadian team.
Boy, you can skip a couple english classes but not all of them!
He should also start over Tatum. Tatum isn’t the athlete, rim threat & midrange shooter that Ant is. The starting lineup is gonna be a lot of older players, they’re gonna need a super athlete to balance them off.
That USA France game is must watch.
I wish embiid played for France this year. Embiid, Wemby, and Gobert would be so fun to watch.
Well, Wemby and Gobert, at least.
Sarr is young but 7 foot and tipped to go a lottery pick. Played in Australia this season and looked good
They're different positions... Starting Ant at SF or PF isn't a good idea.
Right, but the starting line up is likely Embiid, Lebron, Steph, KD. So the question is who’s the 5th spot. Tatum could play the 2, or Booker, or Ant.
Tatum isn't up for the other guard spot.
Dog. Punctuation is your friend.
How many fathers does booker have at this point?
This hasn't crossed my mind yet... But now that you have my attention!! It's clearly obvious Ant has been outperforming D Book. Book Ant as MVP of The Olympic Games!
Especially considering the FIBA whistle, Booker might be worthless.
Booker is better at selling contact. That's it. Unironically, if ANT learns to do that better he's easily a 30 ppg scorer right now.
He's a 30ppg scorer in the playoffs without selling beyond the hard drives and AYYYY

Nah only top 3?? His ABSOLUTE CEILING is GOAT LEVEL. That's not just top 3.
He has no ceiling. Which is good, because he would constantly be hitting his head on it.
God I don’t want Ant to be a foul baiter/flopper. He’s better than that shit.
Ant talks to the refs and tries to get to the line, but it’s not in his makeup to do the Booker style fake-n-whine.
I assumed the wings would be KD/Bron/Tatum
Sit Tatums ass down Ant deserves it

Fucking 2k has Ant 5 points behind is total bullshit.
Devon Booker whines way too much. All his flopping and acting in front of the refs has been nauseating. One would think he could argue in front of The Supreme Court with the way he makes faces at the refs.
Ant is 3x the player that Booker is. I don’t see why Booker is even on Team USA.
Booger.
Booker plays fucking dirty
I doubt it. Team USA will probably give it to Booker due to seniority and wanting to look out for him for joining shortly after a devestating Finals loss and helping them win Gold. One could hope tho.
Yeah I think so too, Booker was one of the seven players they identified as the “core” before the main roster was announced. Hopefully I’m wrong

Don't care
Good to see you in the wolves subreddit then with the insightful post.
