I don't never respond to a guy that's never won a championship it's not nothing to really say he didn't win a college championship I don't know if he even won a high school championship so after Minnesota Timberwolf star Anthony Edwards claimed that Michael Jordan was the only player in older generations with skill Los Angeles Lakers icon Magic Johnson chimed in Johnson who won five championships throughout his career said he wouldn't listen to comments from someone who hasn't won a title I never respond to a guy who's never won a championship Johnson said I've got nothing to say he didn't win a college championship I don't even know if he won a high school championship last week Edwards made a bold claim saying that Jordan was the only player that really had skill in older Generations I didn't watch it back in the day so I can't speak on it he said they say it was tougher back then than it is now but I don't think anybody had skill back then Michael Jordan was the only one that really had skill you know what I mean so that's why when they saw Kobe Bryant they were like oh my God but now everybody has skill those comments were sure to ruffle some feathers and Johnson didn't hold back in his response Johnson's resume is a pretty strong case in point that Edwards was reaching a bit with his statement he averaged 19.5 points 7.2 rebounds and 11.2 two assists tallying more than 10,000 assists during his day and revolutionizing the point guard position his five titles three finals MVPs and three regular season MVPs also speak for themselves but if we have learned one thing about Edwards throughout his career he is confident in himself boasting about his skill in sports Beyond basketball and calling himself the number one option on a Team USA Squad that featured LeBron James Steph Curry and Kevin Durant Edwards has started to back up his confidence as well putting up a care reigh 25.9 points per game and leading the Timberwolves to the Western Conference Finals last season still he'll need to win a championship before Johnson is willing to hear him out
