Yes, I'm a dumbass because I said that atletic ability is mostly weighted to how high you can jump and that steve nash would be an average black player.

Wait, that wasn't me.

Basketball athleticism is pretty heavily effected by how high you can jump, we already established you don't know what the fuck you are talking about. Kibble was referring to the perception of white players being unathletic, and that if he was black, he wouldn't have that label. (when he said average, he meant average athletically in the eyes of the media and fans)

[Kibble]

Actually it was a joke referencing something Dennis Rodman(also parroted by Isiah Thomas) said during his rookie year about Larry Bird. So, yeah, you look like a dumbass.

[Tyche]

Moss, we're dumbasses because we didn't get a joke from an obscure reference.

[Kibble]

Yes, an obscure reference referencing three of the most popular players of the past 30 years.

[Moss]

I did know what you were referring to, I just saw the Larry Bird/Magic Johnson piece on HBO a week ago and was familiar with that quote. I just thought you were actually trying to make a relevant point.

[Stee]

So what have we learned on why Nash should be considered athletic in the NBA.

1) because he could have played soccer at one point in his life.
2) because he won two skills contests which obviously equals a 100m dash.
3) because hall of fame players and coaches have no idea what they're talking about.
4) because he's been running a fastbreak offense for years, that has nothing to do with his passing ability to streaking teammates but only successful because of his speed.
5)because mob mentality led by a mod dictates it so.

I'm done talking about Steve Nash with morons who don't even watch the Suns.

[Headspace]

Good, because I'm done talking about Steve Nash with a moron who hates the Suns.

[Akiyama]

Did you guys know Steve Nash was unathletic?

[Tyche]

Oh god, even akyiama is going to troll. A+ thread now.

[Headspace]

Did you guys know Steve Nash was unathletic?

I think Jaws from Goldeneye said something like that.

[Kibble]

Did you guys know Steve Nash was unathletic?

I heard Steve Nash was so athletic he could jump through time and space.

[Heavencloud]

Wtf happened to this thread lol.

Hawks apparently came to ball tonight (lol 5 pt lead), hope this game turns out to be somewhat entertaining unlike last game.

[GRT]

Why the hell is everyone talking about Nash and not Kobe? This is an outrage.

[Devia]

I realize I'm a chick and all, but did ANYONE read my last post?

I this feeling that you've made this argument sometime before in the past...

[Dimmauk]

I don't get what is with all the rage about Steve Nash being bottom tier athletically. If dude was black he'd just be an average player.

If you can control one of the most up-tempo offenses in the league you're extremely well conditioned.

How does skin color matter?



You know who else isn't athletic? Shaq. That guy cant jump, and he is slow.

White guys can't jump.

Shaq is way past his prime, he was athletic as hell in his prime though, really very similar to Dwight.

I stopped reading there. Why aren't you in the kitchen getting sammiches prepared?

And who the fuck are these Hawks? I was expecting a 40 point deficit when I turned it from the Nats beating the Braves again. Very surprised this game is actually a game. Vinsanity with a dunk as soon as I type this post out.

Also Tyche, this thread was A+ already. I just added a little spice.
