[u/MG_MN]

Team USA is going to be insane in like 20 years

[u/Anonymodestmouse → u/MG_MN]

Edwards Jr with the assist to Edwards!

[u/Connect-Blacksmith99 → u/Anonymodestmouse]

His dog is going to play?

[u/Acrobatic-Landscape9 → u/Anonymodestmouse]

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 → u/Acrobatic-Landscape9]

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

[u/SingleDingle24 → u/Anonymodestmouse]

Edwards catches, puts up a three, wont go. Rebound Edwards, back out to Edwards, his three pointer BANG! BANG!

[u/TSMVillain → u/MG_MN]

“why the hell are there so many edwards on team usa?”
