The Ultimate Anfernee Simons Hype/Update Anthology

You can buy a high end kard of any Portland great past or present for next to nothing.

We should have the same expectations for Anfernee Simons in hobby just as much for SGA,Young,Ball,Edwards and the other . He has a major advantage over Lillard in the hobby. Damon Lillard was competing with James,Curry,Durant,Harden,Leanard,Davis,GreekFreak cards in the hobby. Anfernee Simons competing has the names I just mention.I know Anfernee Simons is better then two players I name on the list NinjaCookies.

If Portland gets more national exposure, Ant will get more love.

When is the last time Portland was really considered a contender? They were swept the one time they made the WCF this century.

That being said, I think Ant has the tools to be better than Dame and he seems like a guy who puts his head down and just goes to work. But remains to be seen if he'll have those clutch moments that Dame has provided.

And ppl forget he won the Slam Dunk contest 2 years ago!

Should and reality don't always necessarily correlate in the hobby. We should all know this by now.

Draft pedigree, team market, and hardware all play a part. And how much does Harden, Leonard, and Davis stuff go for these days? You're talking about mvp's, multi-time champions and top 3 guys at their position. What exactly has Anfernee 'accomplished' thus far?

[biggieruth]

He accomplish just as much in the hobby as SGA,Young,Morant,Ball,Edawards.

[ninjacookies]

Wut.

No. Trae is a 2x all star, 1x ANBA and has an ECF appearance under his belt.


Melo and Morant were both all stars.

Edwards was a first overall (hence the draft pedigree/hype), but his hobby trajectory is falling quickly.

Perhaps SGA, but in his case he's the clear alpha on the team with no statistical threats. I think many are still on the fence about jumping in on Wrong Anfernee at the moment because this is still Dame's team when he's healthy.


You're taking way too many logical leaps here, champ.

What exactly has lamelo, Edwards, sga and alike ‘accomplished’ thus far ?

Dunno why there’s hostility with simons and his prices when it comes to some on here... maybe he stealing some thunder from they guys lol

Anyway Simons been quiet this game , but dude been averaging 30 pieces for 7 games so allowing the likes of lillard to get some shine haha

Refer to my reply above.

Hostility? Someone asked why prices were soft--->I gave an explanation.

The overall card market is dead. I'm not sure what everyone is expecting for a guy that's still in the 1c tier of popular players on a small market team, when even the 1a players are losing value on the daily.

That said, I'm all for Wrong Anfernee in reality. Portland got themselves a great scorer on the cheap.

The only one that actually did something somewhat is trae, the others no. The fact is Simons becoming hobby legit. His rare stuff already on par with lillard stuffs and like the other guy said he’s in competition with his era of guys.. like the guys you mentioned so there’s pretty much no problem when it comes to Simons and the hobby if he stays consistent

I mean if y’all wanna keep coming in here and throw shade by all means do you... I’ll just be here to update the ANThology

If he’s in the 1c tier with the lamelos, sga’s and Edwards that’s not a bad start in such a short span.. by the time dude gets to 1a list in couple years market should pick back up... anybody buying still gets on the cheap a win win babyyy lol

Forgot one major thing why the 1a guys harden, Leonard and Davis stuffs are like catching a falling knife ... they all crippled and barely played any games past seasons.. i remember seeing harden here n there , but seeing Leanoard and Davis is like spotting Bigfoot and Sasquatch so I’m surprised why you bring them up as examples

If you’re playing RN and doing something it don’t matter if you from Portland or wherever... as long as the player is playing and dominating that card gonna be worth something. Don’t matter if that player is small market or playing in MSG

I didn't bring them up. That was your boi Biggie.




I mean, you're also comparing dudes in the latter parts of their careers vs. a guy that's 23. Not exactly sure that's necessarily a major accomplishment saying Anfernee's currently outplaying any of them, while simultaneously asserting that he should be worth more than those accomplished vets.

AD's arguably playing the best stretch of basketball of anyone in the league the past 2 weeks. But he's constructed of balsa so that's neither here nor there.

You missed the point dude nobody compared him to establish vets. Stop pushing the goal post to win a argument you sound insane. Why would anyone compare a 23 year old prospect like Anfernee Simons to two Establish Hall Fame Bound NBA Champions Davis and Leaonard in the hobby or other wise NBA career wise?

[biggieruth]

Like it was stated before NinjaCookies. Anfernee Simons high end cards are selling and moving.

Perhaps I misread/misinterpretated what you were trying to say in this post. It was hard to follow.


Anyways, I mean no ill-will, brethren. The buddha blessings have been sent ya'lls way. It's clear he's a renewed man on a mission since the Iverson ink kit. I'm here for it.

[Asian62150]

Most of us here seem to like Ant. Guy definitely has skills and it's been great to see him improve his game year to year.

I hope he gets a chance to run a team in the next couple of years. Was hoping the Blazers would trade Dame.

I wouldn’t call biggie my boi since i don’t know him at all , but I can say that dude is a smart man buying up Simons when it was pennies to a buck

And let’s be real with card prices.. the only thing that truly matters is if the person wants the card of whatever player because a modern rookie can go for more than a Jordan or Kobe or Leonard or Davis or even lebron.. a rare nba panini wembanyama card prob be 50-100k when it hits the stands

And I don’t think I was saying that at all .. some of my post be sounding jokish, but i was saying he’s def on par with his era of guys now, and if he keeps it up and level up on some skills he’s gonna be in the list with the 1a guys.

IMO he gets it done because Portland already have him chosen as the guy to take over the team from lillard with lillard blessing so he’ll have the opportunity... but dude gotta stay healthy and consistent and doesn’t do some Primo level wack job stuffs throughout his career
