One Hall of Famer has had enough of the comparisons.
For what feels like the entirety of Anthony Edwards' career, he's been compared to Michael Jordan. Now that Edwards is averaging 32.1 points a game in the playoffs, the comparisons have gotten really out of hand. So much so, that one NBA Hall of Famer has had enough of it.
“Please America, please stop the Michael Jordan stuff," Barkley said. "This guy has had one good playoff run. I think he’s going to be a great player and he's a really nice kid. We're rooting for him." While Barkley is a major fan of Edwards, he just doesn't believe he's close to the Greatest of All-Time and that fans should just appreciate Edwards for who he is.
