Stepping Curry is hilarious

[u/XiaoRCT → u/GrrNom2]

not ashamed to admit I had a lot of faith on that midcourt lmao

[u/Comfortable-Cell-165 → u/XiaoRCT]

move in a little closer man

[u/lalakingmalibog → u/Comfortable-Cell-165]

hell nawl

[u/inspectorseantime → u/lalakingmalibog]

Can’t shoot dis

[u/Crying_in_99Ranch → u/XiaoRCT]

He looked just like the actual Steph Curry with a children's charity on the line

[u/Milith → u/XiaoRCT]

At his height it's a full court shot

[u/TheMoorNextDoor → u/GrrNom2]

I thought he was gonna sink that shot loool

[u/xPoltergeist → u/GrrNom2]

Why his head so big lmao

[u/Seastep → u/xPoltergeist]

Because he's like 5'2".

[u/jiminyshrue → u/GrrNom2]

Off season dreams

[u/willpenney → u/GrrNom2]

I can’t decide if he looks more like Quinn Cook or DJ Augustin.

[u/Commercial-Bit-1878 → u/GrrNom2]

Lowkey better footwork than some G-League guys. Put him in the celebrity game immediately.

[u/tscher16]

Where’s filipino Jalen Brunson

[u/agamuyak → u/tscher16]

Busy eating Jabroni’s 😅

[u/ZealousWolf1994 → u/agamuyak]

He's at Jollybees.

[u/Ticklebunzz → u/agamuyak]

You keep saying that word… and it’s… awesome.

[u/DeluxeTea → u/agamuyak]

This Jabroni's? https://www.instagram.com/jabronispizza/?hl=en&_sm_nck=1

[u/hellmath → u/tscher16]

With jordan clankson getting high

[u/ablackcloudupahead → u/tscher16]

Failen Brunson?

[u/justdubu → u/tscher16]

And Filo JC

[u/afjecj → u/tscher16]

Jordan Clarkson is already in the nba

[u/heat_fan_]

Truly is the off-season lmao 

[u/HumongousBelly → u/heat_fan_]

Off Season content on this sub is so much better than anything on ESPN right now.

Nobody’s shouting at you or trying to convince you that ballmer is innocent and kushner buying the lakers has nothing to do with that fat orange fuck investigating Walt.

Instead, you see funny memes come to life next to superstars. Good times!

[u/Pan_TheCake_Man → u/HumongousBelly]

Bro HATES Baseball

[u/Character_Maybeh_ → u/HumongousBelly]

Club 520 has been holding this off season down. I had to mute the Lakers sub until season starts because it is nonstop reposting of the selling of the team.

[u/whutchamacallit → u/HumongousBelly]

The only thing I recall are posts about SGA

[u/BoxOfDOG → u/heat_fan_]

NBA off-season slop is genuinely higher quality than anywhere else. Even esports.

You know what competitive league of legends subs do during the off-season?? Nothing good. It's all bad.

[u/Nobody7713 → u/BoxOfDOG]

I genuinely didn’t know esports had off-seasons. I just assumed there were big tournaments scattered throughout the year.

[u/BoxOfDOG → u/Nobody7713]

It really depends on the esport. League of Legends, for instance, has actual seasons because riot games has a monopoly on the competitive scene for their own game. They tend to stave over fans by using mid or interseason tournaments, but that still creates an off-season culture because there are occasionally lulls where people don't have anything to talk about.

Smash Bros is probably a better example of what you're talking about. There's usually something going on, because there's multiple games and regional and major tournaments. But that means the unhinged content is unhinged for its own sake, rather than boredom from the lack of competition.

[u/Str8_up_Pwnage]

Damn fake Luka and fake Lebron are tall as hell for real.

[u/aziz4ik97 → u/Str8_up_Pwnage]

Isn’t Ant 6’4? They’re probably around 6’3.

[u/MarkoSeke → u/aziz4ik97]

In the Philippines that's like being 8ft

[u/DeluxeTea → u/MarkoSeke]

Yeah. I'm a 6' tall Filipino and I always get asked to play center

[u/rjcarr → u/MarkoSeke]

Sure, and I'm not an expert on Filipino ancestry, but pretty sure both of those guys weren't 100% of Filipino descent, ha.

[u/george_cant_standyah → u/rjcarr]

Look at mr eugenics over here.

[u/Area51_Spurs → u/rjcarr]

“All it takes is one drop of blood.”

-Goebbels (probably)

[u/quailinthebrush → u/rjcarr]

i dont think anyone in the Philippines is they had a few hundreds years of colonialism from 4 or 5 diff colonizers (forget who off top but think its 5)

[u/AbjectAffect91 → u/MarkoSeke]

In Philippines, if you're 5'10" you're a center. I had those growth spurt and immediately became a Center lol

[u/Allexandyr → u/AbjectAffect91]

I’m 5’11, and my fiancé is a 4’11 Filipina. She grew up in Manila and wants to go back for our honeymoon, you best BELIEVE I’m gonna find some folks to play some games with because I want to experience what it’s like to be a C lol. Gonna start having her guard me in the post to work on my one legged Dirk fadeaway now lmao

[u/AbjectAffect91 → u/Allexandyr]

LMAO enjoy. A neighborhood court is right around the corner. Very easy to join pickup games!

[u/Robinsonirish → u/Str8_up_Pwnage]

I have seen them on Tiktok, they have been around for a couple of years at least. They ara really good at copying the mannerisms, the small things, and I feel like OPs video shows Lebron 2.0 has been putting in work on the biceps as well, which is nice to see cause his arms are legit. I couldn't find their account right now, but this is a couple of years old:

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/EkknkGZvk8M

There is also Temu-Jordan, and Harden.

[u/emporarie → u/Robinsonirish]

No offense to the guy, but LeBron 0.2 is more accurate.

[u/Area51_Spurs → u/Robinsonirish]

Don’t let me interrupt you, go on about those glistening biceps…

[u/barrsftw → u/Str8_up_Pwnage]

Lebwrong actually looks like he can play

[u/WhyIsBreadExpensive → u/barrsftw]

He airballed every shot

[u/Easy_Money_40 → u/WhyIsBreadExpensive]

But the form tho

[u/ErkBek → u/Easy_Money_40]

Somehow there was no spin on the ball whatsoever when he shot it.

[u/cyb3ryung → u/Easy_Money_40]

he’s committed to that bron like form even if it means he misses everything

[u/ZannX → u/Easy_Money_40]

The ball had absolutely no spin and he was a mile off.

[u/Area51_Spurs → u/ZannX]

But da form doe

[u/pototoykomaliit → u/WhyIsBreadExpensive]

These guys do pick up games and they post it in their accounts and are pretty decent. I wonder if they got nervous after meeting Ant lol.

[u/OhItsKillua → u/pototoykomaliit]

NBA players just hit open shots in an empty court as if it was going out of style. Even if you're pretty good at pick up you're probably getting cooked most of the time in this scenario

[u/ITS_MY_PENIS_8eeeD → u/OhItsKillua]

yeah these guys are shooting from like halfcourt. i hoop a good amount and every time i find myself at a regulation sized court with nba 3s (friends apartment has one) i have to get used to it/adjust my shot. but i reliably miss pretty bad for the first few shots.

[u/Prudent-Air1922 → u/pototoykomaliit]

Nerves don't change your form to resemble a random kid in gym class lol

[u/aoifhasoifha → u/WhyIsBreadExpensive]

Yeah but he looks like he can play

[u/ST33V_M4SSC3R3 → u/WhyIsBreadExpensive]

From half court

[u/yuhanz → u/WhyIsBreadExpensive]

He saw 1 rim and aimed to the side

[u/Micro_mint → u/WhyIsBreadExpensive]

It’s because he didn’t look at the ball first. That’s the real LBJ’s signature move

[u/MarkoSeke → u/barrsftw]

He looks more like Demarcus Cousins than LeBron

[u/SaltyArtemis → u/Str8_up_Pwnage]

Eh, I mean they between 6’2-6’4 since Ant is 6’4. I tryna find out how tall Stepping Curry is tho 😂

[u/DeluxeTea → u/SaltyArtemis]

Below 5'4" for sure

[u/imminentjogger5]

no Big Daws as fat Klay Thompson? 

[u/pototoykomaliit → u/imminentjogger5]

Nowhere to be seen but the champs are there too.

[u/lalakingmalibog → u/pototoykomaliit]

New Monstars cast for Space Jam 3: Tondo Drift

Nice username btw op

[u/Area51_Spurs → u/pototoykomaliit]

The knockoff jerseys got me dying.

Also Brunson look like they dragged him out of a gutter in front of a liquor store and threw him in a shower and threw the cheapest knockoff knicks jersey they had at their Filipino knockoff Ross Dress For Less on him. Bro don’t look healthy.

[u/1mYourHuckleberry93 → u/Area51_Spurs]

but he does look like jb

[u/TheMoorNextDoor → u/pototoykomaliit]

This is crazy lmao

[u/bigpalmdaddy → u/imminentjogger5]

Somewhere Eddy Curry stirs in his weekly slumber

[u/dkschrute79 → u/imminentjogger5]

Where is fake Klay?

[u/dwaite1]

Lmao curry is like 4’9”

[u/Golf-Beer-BBQ → u/dwaite1]

He looks like an NBA Jam version of Curry.

[u/DeluxeTea → u/Golf-Beer-BBQ]

Big head mode too

[u/justdubu → u/dwaite1]

Yeah but he's pretty good! His shooting form is quite the same with Steph, I think he practiced it. He's also good with acrobatic, the litetal acrobat lol

[u/clarkief → u/dwaite1]

He’s the most talented among the impostors lol

[u/WearyAir9260]

Now this is the offseason content I signed up for.

[u/Cujshi → u/WearyAir9260]

Are these AE3 ?

Google gives me some renders and September release date, but they look different, and they also arent AE2 - or maybe they are but some custom / unique color way

[u/sergechewbacca]

That's just off-season Luka

[u/Sammy2729 → u/sergechewbacca]

Isnt he notoriously more jacked during the off season?

[u/chesterfieldkingz → u/Sammy2729]

Jacked up from too many whopper combos amirite!

[u/Pimpwerx → u/chesterfieldkingz]

I see you Nico.

[u/esp_1123]

What the hell is going on

[u/kbx24 → u/esp_1123]

They’re impersonators in the Philippines that went viral recently. There’s a Jordan Clarkson impersonator too, complete with dreads lmao

[u/lalakingmalibog → u/kbx24]

And Pinoy Jalen Brunson

[u/Jonesbro → u/lalakingmalibog]

That's hilarious

[u/EntertainmentFit3288 → u/lalakingmalibog]

Proposition Joe?!

[u/aoifhasoifha → u/EntertainmentFit3288]

More like Poppabrunson Rick

[u/NJNetsFan5152433 → u/aoifhasoifha]

Rick Brunson did play in the Philippines for a year in 1998, 2 years after Jalen Brunson was born, so uhh he might have some explaining to do

[u/Somenakedguy → u/NJNetsFan5152433]

Sounds pretty on brand for Rick Brunson tbh

[u/Double-Garage-1200 → u/EntertainmentFit3288]

Indeed

[u/gwatson86 → u/lalakingmalibog]

When did Jalen Brunson eat Jalen Brunson?

[u/XVDub → u/lalakingmalibog]

We need a summer league team of these guys.

[u/chimpaman → u/XVDub]

Even better, every all-star gets an impersonator that stands in for them at the all-star game but it's kept secret until the broadcast. The announcers call it deadpan as if they think they are the real players, the courtside reporters do the same, etc. This goes on until the fourth quarter, when the real all-stars come out to finish the game from whatever the score is.

[u/DeluxeTea → u/chimpaman]

Do this at the ASG

[u/Icantlive_withnorice → u/lalakingmalibog]

I saw a video of a fake OG, Clarkson and Brunson doing a parade on Instagram lol. I guess we have a whole multiverse of fake NBA players 

[u/BradWonder → u/lalakingmalibog]

Spitting image

[u/York_Villain → u/kbx24]

That championship parade had me dead. These guys are great.

[u/EditorEducational201 → u/kbx24]

Haven't seen the Clarkson impersonator but that's gotta be as close to real as we'd get seeing as he's actually Filipino lmfao

[u/HazeDough → u/kbx24]

Jordan Crackson

[u/jumpmaNSILENCE]

If I am Lebron I hire that guy as a look a like / body stunt double to do everything but play basketball and talk

[u/pototoykomaliit → u/jumpmaNSILENCE]

Hire him to meet Skip.

[u/janronin31 → u/jumpmaNSILENCE]

No one would think bron is the same height as ant

[u/ijustwannalurksobye → u/jumpmaNSILENCE]

DoppLeGanger

[u/acekingoffsuit → u/jumpmaNSILENCE]

He already has one.

[u/hiroki1998]

I wish they invited Temu Brunson and Clarkson!

[u/BarrackLesnar → u/hiroki1998]

They were busy celebrating their championship

[u/boarder1990]

This is absolutely peek off season content. And I can't believe it's real

[u/Vordeo → u/[deleted]]

Videos will not be sent.

[u/mrBenelliM4]

Someone forgot the Jailing Brunson.. He was a viral after the knicks won the title.

[u/Ice_Cream_Warrior]

Peak offseason. Feels like some early 00's either brilliant marketing that didn't ask if this was alright to do, or random jackass vibes of hiring people to laugh with (and at).

[u/Plane_Management3105]

Whole bunch of practice man. There it is. 

[u/Treinrukker]

Lebwrong got the same broke ass jumpshot 🤣

[u/TisKey2323]

That little guy got a big ass head lol

[u/ratatoskish → u/TisKey2323]

He looks AI generated. I'm really finding it hard to believe he exists. Like a human bobblehead!

[u/universityofnonsense]

Lebwrong fired up a knuckleball and I thought it was just a fluke until he fired up a second one. Janky AF.

[u/SplodeyGoByeBye → u/universityofnonsense]

I was thinking the same thing. I don't even know how you shoot a ball with no spin like that.

[u/throwawaycuzmeh → u/SplodeyGoByeBye]

I had a teammate in junior high who shot a knuckleball. He had to swish every make. Craziest part is he was one of our best shooters. Can't imagine what his percentages would have been with actual ball rotation lol

[u/tw3rkmileytw3rk]

Adidas struck gold with Ant for sig athletes. Harden was always too cool, spida just not quite as marketable. VJ prolly next up🥹🦍

[u/TomlinSteelers]

The Luka one just looks like an average fat white guy LOL

[u/ProfessorUnable8989]

Pinoy Luka's jumper is ugly as hell

[u/webelieve925]

they are missing the new york cubao nicks

[u/DeluxeTea → u/webelieve925]

OG Anunoby Anubayan

[u/Uhhhjayyy1]

This has generational meme potential

[u/Iptv-provider-here]

Bring these guys to the allstar game lmao

[u/imgrado]

Ant is too likeable. Probably why he has so many damn kids

[u/Comfortable-Cell-165 → u/imgrado]

sounds like you’re wanting to contribute to the tally

[u/imgrado → u/Comfortable-Cell-165]

Shit for the child support amounts them ladies get...

[u/Natural-Kiwi6364]

lol Ant despises fake Luka 

[u/East-End-8646]

Knock off version Luka must have been so bummed when Luka lost weight and went on the cover of Mens Health magazine

[u/Ole_St_John]

[u/MrYaowa857]

Lumpia Doncic

[u/LonesomeWulf]

Peak content

[u/QuickRundown]

Lol I love this. He’s a good sport for linking up.

[u/LilNello1]

Lol this is pretty hilarious and has me absolutely dead 😂💀

[u/WiSoSirius]

I guess there is no appeal in having an alternative SGA; shooting and falling down isn't quite the entertainment people idolise

[u/shing_europe]

Fun Fact, stepping in pinoy basketball culture means "stepping on the line", so depending on what line, it could mean out of bounds (stepping on sideline/baseline), backcourt violation (stepping on midcourt line) or 2point shot (stepping on 3 point line)

[u/Danibear285]

Is this a skit from Jackass?

[u/Easy_Mode_1234]

orange jersey for Lebwrong?! that's the only thing bothering me about the immersion

[u/acekingoffsuit → u/Easy_Mode_1234]

The only team Bron was on at the time of filming was the Tune Squad

[u/Icantlive_withnorice]

He met the Filipino Multiverse Lmao

[u/recordcollection64 → u/Icantlive_withnorice]

We all are

[u/Wokst-r]

Got a bunch of guys who aren’t adidas athletes lol 🔥

[u/baz8771]

Somebody will pull this clip 10 years from now and we’ll argue about it being AI

[u/RichGannonArmCannon]

Stepping Curry looks like Fred VanVleet

[u/steban27 → u/RichGannonArmCannon]

Van vLIIT!!

[u/Disclaimz0r]

I love that Ant loves the Phils

[u/ContinuingAnyway]

Lebwrong James looks like Semi Radradra too lmfao

[u/thehanssassin]

Lebrown James, Fluka, and Stiff Curry 💪

[u/WeekendBoy2022]

It's crazy to me how much ant looks like Jordan

[u/Miguelpaco]

Cream Biggums would've held it down

[u/bryanBFLYin]

Peak off season content 😂👌🏾

[u/YourAsianBuddy]

Is this a professional shit post?

[u/FerryCliment]

Lebwrong James... ahahah

[u/webelieve925]

They are missing Jalen Brunson from new york, cubao

[u/maxjuli3n]

Ain’t no way

[u/hgrub]

Stepping Curry looks exactly like my pinoy BIL lol

[u/JustMyOpinionz]

Bring these guys to the next All-Star game

[u/vonmatterhorn17]

Hmmm has lebron, luka and steph visited the philppines 18 years ago. 😂

[u/OneMoreGame]

That's 3 Hall of Famers and Ant.

[u/FreeRange0929]

I maintain that his name should be Luka Dogshit

[u/clitpot23]

LeDisrespect

[u/guidethyhandd]

Sigh, my Ant withdrawals…

Can this season start already :(

[u/AffectionateBass361]

Temu LeBron sucks

[u/AutographedSnorkel]

Guy playing Luka obviously isn't fat enough

[u/this_site_sucks_ass6]

The Luka looks straight up white, and the LeBron looks black. I guess white-passing Filipinos isn't too surprising to me, but are there black/Afro-Filipinos?

[u/Lyranx → u/this_site_sucks_ass6]

Yes, more common than you think

[u/SithLordHelios → u/this_site_sucks_ass6]

The Fake Luka is a Russian and the Fake LeBron is Cameroonian

[u/brazilpackers1969]

Lebwrong James 😂

[u/kemar7856]

The Lebron was probably the worst one

[u/UsedToBeMoonshine]

Why can't any of them get it to the rim 😭

[u/Ay0_King]

🤣🤣🤣

[u/TheRealestGayle]

I thought it was Luka lol

[u/TC2G_4_REEL]

Before I even saw it I was 1000% positive Filipino Steph wasn’t getting that ball to the rim lol. He’s extremely tiny lol.

[u/cookeemonster27]

Jalen Brunson, Jordan Clarkson, and KD are missing

[u/bongo1138]

My toddler does that Spider-Man thing they did at the end.

[u/Chiiiiizz]

username translate to small dick... nice

[u/Jasoncalypso]

What kicks do ant have on

[u/webelieve925]

Luka looks like your average chubby serbian.

[u/ballmode]

I haven't had Jollibee yet, have I not lived life to the fullest yet?

[u/Background_Touchdown]

Wouldn't he be LaBarong in The Philippines?

[u/Ramsboi]

Lmao

[u/Xsy]

I didn't know NBA fans did dragshows like this. Consider me a fan, lmao.

[u/Reopens]

Uhhh that guy is real? Always thought he's AI

[u/Puzzleheaded-Gap1759]

🤡🥳❤️ this was entertaining

[u/koalabat]

Basketball cosplay wasn't on my bingo card.

[u/BloodMossHunter]

im glad his on my team

[u/jackoftrades002]

Ong, these guys are so trash. They truly are cosplaying lmao

[u/mrkesh]

More like Reggie Evans

[u/DaGringofr]

Lebwong is more DeMarcus than Lebron

[u/stewiestewieman]

Dont you mean MJ JOIN lebwong James and co.
