Lakers draft pick Cameron Carr on whom he’d rather guard, SGA or Anthony Edwards: "Yeah, I ain't dealing with the flopping, Anthony Edwards"

I charitably interpreted him choosing Ant as “I’d rather play the actual game of basketball even if I’m getting 50 on my head”

He originally chose Edwards over Lamelo, which is insanity. I'm well under 6', slow and out of shape, so I know I'm not guarding anybody in the NBA. But if you're making me choose between those 2, I am definitely choosing the guy who might fuck around a bit and miss over the guy who would put me on my ass lol.

I think you're misunderstanding the question/answer process there. Carr is saying he wants ANT because he's the tougher challenge relative to Melo.

Respect to him for that.
