I was lookin this same thing up earlier. I figured all those NBA dudes do is jump, so they'll probably have better verticals. But when I saw the numbers...it was over. Can't run faster, jump higher, or lift more...

Seriously though, it doesn't make sense

NFL players don't even need a vertical jump, yet they're pulling out record numbers.

Them niggas need to get in the gym. Don't even lift weights, just get your athletecism up. Niggas be surprised when Lebron is punking everybody. Its cause he has the work ethic of an athlete, not of a basketball player.

Niggas be surprised Ray Allen be running crazy marathons. Its cause he's an athlete, not a basketball player.

The only thing the NBA has a leg up in is endurance. Speed and strength, NFL wins.

And things like the bolded are makin me think ur just jokin around and sayin shit to say it

When you were lookin up the combine shit you see all those players that do 0-3 reps at 185?

You're the one saying he is NOT.

I can bring up AP's combine #'s and say, "unless they put up better numbers in each category, you cannot go out on a limb and say they are."

Can you bring up their #'s???

To not waste time bullshittin, let's just agree AP is faster than the people you named. And let's not bullshit again...he's stronger than the people you named. Maybe jumping (a specialty of NBA players)?

AP's combine vertical 38'
Blake Griffin 35.5'
Shannon Brown I'm readin has a 43.5-44 in. vertical. But speaking objectively, I dunno where that number came from. But I'll say it's true.
Mcgee has a 32-33 inch vertical.

So AP wins all that, and comes in 2nd in the vert. Don't let that "head above the rim, yadda yadda" shit fool you. Dude's already 7' tall, so gettin ur head high in the air isn't gonna be hard.

Because you have biased people who never hooped a day in their lives and act like their precious nfl is the best league athletically when its not

When an nfl player does this then holla

I just told you. The #s speak for themselves. Bow to royalty just laid it out. If AP has is stronger, is faster, and has a better vert, how is he not more athletic???

How do numbers at a combine translate to playin the game?

So you sayin cuz ap has a better vert and can bench more than blake he can go in the nba and jump over 7'1 guy like this?

suckit%281%29.gif


Nah he cant

I think none of u cats ever hooped a day in your life

Iiight now what about the 6'0-6'1 niggas who dunk on 7 footers?

Or the crossin a nigga at the top of the key,goin in the lane and doin a up and under switching hands?

Or shooting a 20 foot fadeaway over a 6'8 cat?

Or a tip dunk Or catching an alley oop from 20 feet away?

those are skills

BLAKE IS 9 INCHES TALLER THAN HIM! You're not lookin at how high someone's gettin off the ground, you're looking at how high they reach. And givin one dude a 9 inch head start. No shit if Blake and AP are jumpin to see who can slap the highest brick on the wall, the 9 inch taller blake will win. But it's not because he's jumping higher...

Tommy how u gonna try and trash nfl players like they dont got no conditioning. Try goin full speed every play with physical contact, pads, and against the elements, that aint happening in the NBA. u make it seem like they running up and down the court full speed for 48 minuntes. No one even plays 48 minutes anyway. And theres plenty of breaks in the NBA wit all the damn fouls and all the timeouts. One game in the NFL equals a full week of basketball games.

Ya Bilfiger, you're starting to look stupid. I'm not tryna be mean or anything. But you've been listing skills way too much, and it's been explained way too many times.

The NFL side isn't talkin about how if you put a NBA player at QB, he wouldn't be able to place the ball perfectly over the shoulder of a WR runnin a go route 50 yards downfield, while a D-Lineman is comin at himfull speed. Cuz that's a sport-specific SKILL.
