Nothing takes away the smileAnthony Edwards, not even being down 3-0 in the conference final, when a team has never managed to come back from such a deficit. And the Wolves' victory in Game 4 to stay alive only accentuated the positive attitude of the back, who immediately promised a sixth round in Dallas.
The All-Star had already arranged to meet the Nuggets in Game 7 after losing in Game 5. He then approached the opposing bench to say to a Denver steward: “See you all on Sunday at Game 7.”
A promise kept thanks to the victory in Game 6, and which he had even enriched with success in the final clash with the reigning champions. So here we go again for a ride.
A new appointment made
So, although he is on the verge of elimination against the Mavericks, Anthony Edwards does not intend to give up or put aside the confidence he has in himself and his team to reach the Finals.
“What am I supposed to say?” Am I supposed to say we're going to lose game five? No, I will never say that”, replied Anthony Edwards to reporters as he left his post-match press conference.
The fifth game takes place tonight, but Anthony Edwards is already planning the sixth game in Dallas. During Game 4, he saw Micah Parsons, linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys in the NFL, wearing a pair of his signature model, the AE1. Obviously, he made the promise again.
“Micah Parsons was wearing the AE1 and I told him he was wearing a size 44 and I would bring him a nice pair of shoes for Game 6” concluded Anthony Edwards ahead of Karl-Anthony Towns and Mike Conley.
