Shows you how much easier the NFL is than the NBA.

NBA is the most select league in the world.

LOL scrubs like Antonio Gates and Jimmy Graham that have 0 shot to play in the NBA yet played basketball their whole lives and in college and only picked up a football a few times just go to the NFL and become stars instantly.

The level of talent in the NBA is unmatched. Any PF in the NBA could play any offensive position in football except quarterback. If you think Jimmy Graham is a good tight end Blake Griffin Lebron or Dwight Howard would be studs in the NFL and wouldn't even have to know how to play football.

As far as pure athleticism, the NFL is a joke compared to the NBA.

That's all.

Thanks and merry christmas.

[frizzelli]

I love how noone is even mad bro and yet you make an argumentive thread.

[KingJD31]

no.

[ebbearsfb1]

Whatever you say... nba where foul after foul happens.. games aren't enjoyable

[ttwarrior1]

of course, o and d lineman are big
Lebron would also make less money playing in the nfl

Why aren't more failed players in college playing football then?

but yeh of course they are more athletic, duh wilber

[Vitooch]

Andres Biedrins should play middle linebacker for the Ravens instead of Ray Lewis. Same difference.

[Sunde91]

yerp NBA starter PF David Lee is a world class athlete among the chosen few in the select NBA. Chris Bosh could also play TE and make Patrick Willis his bitch

[mw00]

yea cause i'm sure scalabrine can play tight end in the nfl..logic so retarded

[Holtgetsback]

i would love to see kevin durant over the middle

i would end his fukking career

[MoneylineExpress]

Ridiculous thread. Yeah a lot of NBA players would make good TE's and WR becuase of their height/athleticism combo, but other than those 2 positions you have no argument.

[Goat Milk]

you guys get what I mean.

Dwight Howard would be best player in NFL

could play every position except rb and qb and cornerback

dwight howard stronger than any player in NFL. would ruin any o lineman in the entire league if he was on the d line. 7'2, 280 pure muscle, black belt, great boxer

basically a 10x better version of Julias Peppers

can't even win a ring in nba

[8ArIvd5]

It amazes me why you're posting on this site and not running a dynasty of a sports team.

[8ArIvd5]

GM, does leverage matter in the NFL?

[thechaoz]

Lol yup ....Kobe could come in and light it up like Rodgers

[ttwarrior1]

one good shot to howard's knees

Plus he would need to be able to catch

[Ace_of_Spades]

Goat Milk, how'd you today in the NBA?

[GUMMO77]

For sure some of the bigger NBA players could play football, but not as many as you would think. Although he's not an NBA player, when Brock Lesnar tried out for the Vikings and he got his ass handed to him. He's strong, was a major college athlete, but on the NFL field the dude was a piece of hamburger.

[305GURU]

Some of the those guys are softys, they might be more athleticaly gifted but they wont have the heart and tenacity to last in the NFL...its a different animal

[sideloaded]

nba players are simply not tough enough for the nfl

[2daBank]

do you even read this shit before you post it?

[No coincidences]

I'm fully convinced that Goat is the loneliest person at SBR -- brahma included.

Someone needs to hook these two up.

[Ockert12]

Dwight Howard on the D-Line ?

You do realize that his career would be over after one chop block don't you?

[Ace_of_Spades]

nba players are simply not tough enough for the nfl

NFL players are pretty soft too with the pads and shitt. If Gridiron players played Rugby they'd snap.

[ApricotSinner32]

Goat nobody gives a shit. Keep track of your picks and pipe down.

People can't really be this stupid.

Jaguars 224 Magic 0 in football
Magic 106-64 in basketball

if they played the fb gm 1st jags would win both as Howard and rest of team be unable to make it to the court..

[brahmabull117]

dwight howard stronger than any player in NFL

now how do you expect to have a legit argument when you say stuff like this????



On pure strength, Dwight would get annihilated by nearly offensive lineman in the league. You understand some of those guys benchpress like 600 lbs right??

[Full Time Hobo]

Is this thread serious?

[2daBank]

Is this thread serious?

sadly i believe it is...you have to understand tho that goaty is a straight up star worshiper and no one pimps star power to the fans like the nba so it is only natural (albeit strange) that GM has a infatuation with his NBA superstars..

LOL I almost took the bait. merry xmas, to you, sir.
It'd be awesome all those scrub NBA players just showed up and took over the NFL. It would make the game better, perhaps. To be fair, if Ochocinco played proper foots, then he might be the best athlete we've seen since Jim Bown... Just saying, Sporting KC is a POWERHOUSE (of nothing).

[frostno98]

Trying to make it on basketball in highschool, even as the 12th man bench warmer is hard as hell. While, even a scrub kid off the streets can make the cut on special teams in highschool football

[rm18]

NBA players are tall and have long arms most are just average athletes, Tim Tebow can jump higher than over 90% of guys in NBA.

Being tall is a awesome skill!!!

[4TH AND STUPID]

this thread is really awful and the argument made to support the claim in the opening post is also awful.


obviously more players will get into the NFL and there will be a lot more stories about people leaving basketball to join the NFL...

you know why?? cause the roster has 55 people whereas an nba roster usually has 10-15 MAX






in terms of "athleticism".... NFL wins HANDS down. bigger star players like ray lewis, patrick willis, suh, joshua cribbs, antonio gates, are way more athletic than bigger nba star players like tim duncan, paul gasol, shaq, etc.... in fact there is almost no comparison



"smaller" players, its about even. however, one could argue that due to the physical nature of football, smaller the players are even more athletic than the smaller nba players because they have to not only make plays with their arms and legs, but they also have to put the rest of their body on the line and also constantly get hit by guys who are bigger than them.


in my opinion, what jerome simpson did on sunday (front flipping over a grown man in order to get into the endzone) is no different than what vince carter accomplished in the slam dunk competition a few years ago. its all a matter of perspective.


the fact of the matter is, when it comes down to "athleticism" and factors that can measure ones athletic ability (40 yard dash, acceleration off the line, vertical leap, horizontal leap, etc etc etc) , the NFL is more or less parallel to the nba.



the argument you are making in the opening post is so rediculously flawed, that its pretty clear either A) you were sounding off in drunkeness after being able to jerk off to some nba for the first time in months or B) youve lost a lot of money in football, won some money on some nba ML's and all of a sudden feel the need to big up nba and put down nfl.


thread is garbage
