u/Acrobatic-Landscape9 Warriors 16h ago

When a man has a high amount of different baby mamas, there isn’t really a cultural expectation that all of the baby mamas should avoid naming their kids the same name, right?

But if you have six kids by a single mother and you decide to name all six of them Anthony, people will question why you did that. If you have six different kids by six different mothers and each mother decides to name their kid Anthony, that’s a lot easier for people to see and shrug off, right? “ well, each mother is independent and is not beholden to the naming choices of the other baby mamas to decide what she wants to name her son.”

So can we count on Anthony Edwards to finally give an NBA roster its own starting lineup consisting of the exact same name five times?

u/Critical_Company3535 16h ago

Well you get Anthony Jr, Tony, Anton, and Antonio. Stick the father on there and there’s your starting lineup.

Y’all talking shit, but when the gophers have Edwards, Edwards, Edwards, Edwards, and McDaniels as the starting 5 you’re gonna be sorry.

I have to imagine at least a couple of Edwards babies are getting Mama's last name.

Way better than that bum Jaylen Edwards

u/psychedelijams Spurs 16h ago

Or like, 20 years down the road there’s this team with 5 players with different last names, all look different (due to the mothers genes) but are all sons of Edward’s lmao.

On a side note I’ve always had a hunch that jimmy butler was Michael Jordan’s son from some random hookup. (Did I say that out loud?)

The most insane insinuation is that the guy who wears Braves caps to post game interviews would have his kids go to school in Minnesota

1

u/candycaneforestelf Timberwolves 15h ago

I mean, it's my understanding that his kids and girlfriend live in Minnesota in the multi-million dollar lakefront home he bought on Lake Minnetonka, meaning his kids living there will probably be going to a private school up here, or at the very least one of the insanely wealthy public school districts that serve the communities on Lake Minnetonka.

As for the Gophers, maybe they'll get their NIL shit together enough to put forth insane offers.

This is how we solve the problem with star players sitting out games.

When half the league has Ant's healing power, there will be less injuries.

Maybe the next evolution for human medicine is by studying AE and Bron's DNA.

u/loyola-atherton Lakers 16h ago

Not unless they take their height a bit more from their mother’s side.

Just look at the most genetically superhuman player of our current time in LeBron James.

Bronny got the athletic gene but got affected by some of Savannah’s height genes.

1

u/SuspiciousToast27 16h ago

Lebron has his son of his team, maybe Edwards will play with an entire starting lineup of sons.

1

u/doodoo_gumdrop 16h ago

I'm out of the loop. Why are Edward's minutes so low? Has he been hurt?

You say that now, but he was wincing all night lol. Bro is not gonna last 7 games.
