The Minnesota Timberwolves have started the season well, and even without Anthony Edwards, they're still finding ways to win. That's due to the talent on the team, and one of the players leading the way is LaMelo Ball. The Timberwolves' point guard is making plays for his teammates, but has also found the balance of getting his own. It's something that he's been doing since he got in the league, but the pundits still haven't been too fond of him.

There's no doubt that Ball hears the noise, and in his recent Instagram post, he made sure to troll all of them. In the post, there are several sports analysts talking about Ball's game, and none of it is good.

It starts with David Ramil saying that he hates Ball, and then skips to Nick Wright saying that the point guard is a clown. Ric Bucher then had a clip where he said Ball was a whole circus.

After all of the criticism, the video then goes to some of Ball's highlights so far this season, and the caption writes, “I think I got a buzz.”

Ball is not new to any of the criticism; at this point, it looks like he uses it for motivation more than anything. That's what the Timberwolves need right now, especially with Edwards sidelined. Head coach Chris Finch shared what he told Ball when Edwards was injured.

“When Anthony went down, one of the first things — we went to Melo, and we said, ‘you got to be more aggressive for yourself right now,’” Finch said. “You know, he was doing such a great job of kind of deferring, getting everyone involved, trying to build chemistry across the board with everyone. But we needed him to be more aggressive for himself.”
