International teams play a better brand of basketball than USA

[QUOTE=LBJ_MVP09]This post COMPLETELY owns all of the people calling other people racist. While one can enhance their explosive capabilities (and it's not just lifting weights you retards), one can only peak so high, as people are born with a certain number of fast twitch muscle fibers. There is a lot of research that states that african americans have more fast twitch muscle fibers on average. Is every black guy more athletic than every white guy? Nope. Can white people be explosive too? Yup. But to say the predominantly white european players could "just hit the weights" to catch up to the USA's athletic dominance is so damn close-minded and frustrating to read.[/QUOTE]

Hey racist, do you know what builds the fast twitch muscle fibers? Did you actually research why blacks are said to have more?

if you had you would be freaking embarrassed. Take your RACIST agenda elsewhere because it is insulting.

[QUOTE=ZenMaster]People just cry racism because they have no real counter argument. It's sad, but it is what it is.[/QUOTE]

You should be banned.

I also have taken many science classes in college and have a very strong understanding of anatomy/physiology. If this research is too lacking and my knowledge of anatomy is not enough, why don't you enlighten me rather than shouting racist? Unlike you I'm open-minded and willing to concede granted there is proof to your claims.

what ever happened to V-span???? i remember that one game where he came outta nowhere beasting on team usa. i was like damn, i wish he woulda did that shit when he was in a rockets uniform.:facepalm

You are not only a racist, you are also an overly educated moron.

His coach was also racist. He had back to back great games against USA "A" team and yet according to his idiot coach he could not even make an NBA game.

yes they do.

i surely hope so. cause white unathletic players beating nba stars just doesn't sound to good.

[QUOTE=50inchvertical]Nobody said both races were equal, hell no 2 people are genetically equal; it's just not this outright thing that if you're black you're athletic automatically and if you aren't, then you aren't and nothing can be done about it.

If you can't jump high but want to, get in the weight room as well as on some plyos and you will jump high.

And yes black people do overwhelmingly pick up basketball and football more than other sports, especially the other ones you listed. Basketball is pretty much the sport of choice. Like you mention cycling and how I guess you think white people are genetically predisposed to being better at it, how many schools have a cycling program compared to schools with a basketball team?

Ask Chase Buddinger. He was born with the, what you consider to be a handicap in sports, of being white yet he wanted to be a great volleyball/basketball player and turned himself into just that. Ditto Joe Alexander.

Google Alex Maroko. He makes his millions training people who never think they can be athletic, to be athletic. Kelly Baggett is another guy to look at. Both are white as well.

I got a video of Alex hitting his head on the rim somewhere, I think it's in my email. I'll find it. He's 5'10 btw

Getting over the mental handicap is the first hurdle.

If you can't do something, you just aren't and haven't been working hard enough at it.

edit: and find videos of Javtokas before the car accident. He was every bit as athletic as Ibaka.[/QUOTE]

I agree, that steriotype kills most players from even beginning to work at it. There are examples of tons of white guys with huge verticals, look up Alan Barch Jr. on YouTube

And not that it matters, but that vid is of Taylor Allan, not Kelly Baggett. I'd like to see a video of Kelly but all there is is that picture.... Again, another white dude with a huge vert.

I know who it is. I was mentioning Kelly in my list of white dudes with verticals who trained hard to attain them. And I never much cared for Kelly as a business man. He was a con artist. Luke Lowrey is too.

And the whole fast twitch slow twitch argument is so tired. They're not as mutually exclusive as people pretend. That's the reason somebody like Keon Clark with no visible muscle mass can have hops, just the same as someone like Ismail Muhammad who is all muscle. And frankly, those ESPN WOrld's Strongest Men dudes have higher vertical leaps than basketball players (average vertical is higher in the NFL than in the NBA too). They lack the athletic grace to do the types of things basketball players do because they don't train in such a way, but I've seen Dr Squat (who is a very old white man who squats like 1000lbs but plays no sports) off a pure vert jump over 4 ft in the air on stage, was damn near high enough to clear anybody standing near him. I just can't find that picture for shit anymore.

And so yes, the international guys could get into the weight room if they cared to not be 6'6 176lbs.

I posted it just two posts above you, but I guess I'll post it again:

But I guess white people just don't train for 100m sprint eh? That must be the reason.

I hate the NBA rules. Particularly the only way to defend perimeter players is to flop, and even that rarely works.

when FIBA comes along, I find it much more enjoyable than the NBA.
