Kyle Korver can get a nice dunk in when he gets a free lane.

People who say Blake isn't white simply needs glasses. His skin colour is white, how can he be black ?...

Right now it's Chase

But if somebody can sign him, it would be Joe Alexander

Black people have different muscle structure that is why they are usually more athletic, can jump higher. And griffin can jump high as **** so yes he is black or half white or whatever. Point being he is not white. Steve Nash, Kevin Love are white, Blake isn't.

So players who jump high aren't white due to fact that they jump high nvm that they are actually white ? You make no sense, you jsut said that whites who jump high are blacks :facepalm

I don't care what any of you say. When was the last time you saw a white boy T-Mac it right to the rack like Chandler Parsons does here?

You should've titled the thread "Most athletic Caucasian in the NBA" to clear up the confusion and obvious ensuing argument over the half-African American, half-Caucasian players in the league.

Ok well this guy isnt in the league, nor is he a basketball player. But according to your logic he is black....

But he aint. He's white. Fact is human beings can jump when they think they can. If youi think "im white i cant jump" then guess what? You cant.

Budinger has to be my choice. Very quick & can jump out of the gym.

Griffin's parents. Dad is African-American and his mom is a Caucasian. Looks like this may explain why Blake's skin complexion is so light for a half-black and half-white person. His mom is read headed (so is Blake) and red-heads usually have pretty fair skin.

Now, back on topic. Chase Budinger gets my vote for the most athletic Caucasian in the NBA and is most certainly the most athletic American born Caucasian in the league. Rudy Fernandez is up for the for non-American born white guys.

Quickeness, speed, first step, vertical jump etc.

That's a former high-jump champion. And I can't tell if you're being serious about the whole being able to jump high is just a mental thing. Some 5'0" white person can't just simply go out on a basketball court and tell themselves "I'm white and I CAN jump" and then throw it down. It isn't that simple.

Some 5'0" white person can't just simply go out on a basketball court and tell themselves "I'm white and I CAN jump" and then throw it down. It isn't that simple.I know hes a high jumper but hes white being the point. He can jump right with MJ and hes as white as you get.
Jumping is relative. If your 4'2 you can still have a 40" vertical. But yea that dont mean it trnaslates to a dunk.

However 5'6 people dunking is happening more and more so who knows.

I mean i cant dunk right now cause i work and i dont have time to stay in that kinda shape. But i am 6'5. but thinking is teh origin of everything. If you dont think you can, you never will.

Why is athleticism always measured in vertical leap? You guys really don't know much about athleticism

Is Joe Alexander still in the league? If so, it's probably him.
If not, it's Kevin Love and Budinger if you want to exclude Blake. Kevin Love is a really under rated athlete. Has great leaping ability, is really strong (or at least looks like he can hold down anyone when he's going for rebounds) He's honestly not all the much less athletic then Blake. He's just doesn't have the same type of body control and isn't flashy.

I think once Meyers Leonard goes to the NBA he deserves consideration as a true pasty white boy with extreme athleticism.

That's right, he has very long arms, not as much as Rondo but really disproportionate to their size.

I also agree with Duma that Gordon Hayward has gained much muscle lately, and actually is a very strong player.

Jan Vesely . He can jump higher than 95% of Nba players and is fast for player of his size but the bad thing is that this is only thing he can do on offense ( jump , dunk ) .

Did you watch him during preseason? Dude is the only guy on the Wizards with any BBIQ. He knows how to play.

I watched him in Partizan , if you only watched him only in Wizards than I watched him more than you . But I was talking about his shooting , passing etc. and not about his BBIQ . He is young and he impoved his shooting last season so I think he can be very good player if he continues to improve his game on offense . Is he playing sf or pf for Wizards ?
