right. that's why hockey players are usually more % body fat than any other sport except baseball. thats why they need skates to make up for their lack of athleticism. and how many people play in the NHL? Lots. sure, they have a lot of talent and a lot of skill goes into it, but you don't need to be born an athlete to play hockey. you have to be born an athlete to play in the NBA.

Miller was only relevant in the NBA for a couple years. He was a scrub. Look at his frame though. Guy was very tall and very big. Could have easily played in the NFL and would have been much better at it had he pursued that path instead.

Look at the league today. It's so difficult to even get into a 12 man game roster, let alone a rotation. It's the most competitive sport in the world. Derick Rose flies down the court WITH the ball at 20 miles per hour. Fact proven. Jordan was 2% body fat in his prime. Fat proven. There are over 50 players in the NBA that jump over 40 inches (vertical jump). Fact proven. NBA has the least amount of professional players than any other sport.

Even the best college basketball players are denied the NBA. You only get a handful--maybe a dozen--of guys that make a difference in the league coming out each year of college. That's nothing compared to the rookies coming into the MLB, NFL, hockey, etc. That just shows you what the level is like. It's easy to watch from the TV and not be impressed.

Watch sportsscience if you're interested in that. Maybe it will change your thinking on how raw of athletes these guys are. If there is a sport that measures speed, quickness, vertical leap, strength, ability to stay in the air, anything you can think of, its basketball.

**Goat Milk** · 11-11-11, 04:20 PM

as you can see, i need the nba back

**deadstare** · 11-11-11, 04:33 PM

nba more entertaining then college.

**onlooker** · 11-11-11, 04:44 PM

Yes. In recent years, the NBA has been my best sport to bet on.

**jjgold** · 11-11-11, 04:45 PM

Rabbits can out jump, out quick, out speed, more agile than NBA players. More entertaining too.
Probably be easier to coach/train too.

All your numbers are exaggerated.....I'm 6 feet and my ceiling is 9 ft.... I can touch it with my head....BFD

**ehp6737** · 11-11-11, 05:41 PM

**gilbert91016** · 11-11-11, 05:46 PM

Wait. what? No NBA? Didn't notice. My bad.

**jjgold** · 11-11-11, 05:58 PM

NBA is by far most competitive league in world

**antifoil** · 11-11-11, 06:26 PM

yeah the nba is needed. there was more lebron thread per day than there has been sandusky threads on this forum.

**Avenger** · 11-11-11, 06:27 PM

When the zebras officiate fair, NBA is easiest sport to cap. Least amount of variables. Lots of history between the players.

Yes, I need NBA.
