they cant jump

they dont play apehoop

Overwhelming majority of Caucasian Americans stop playing basketball during their childhood and gravitate instead toward gridiron football, baseball and ice hockey. Much of this phenomenon has to do with the fact that basketball is the paramount inner city sport, unrelatable to middle class suburban folk.

>Eurowhites
>Posts an American white

They are too busy having real jobs that won't get you retired before being 40yo. Unless you are poor or super talented, it's stupid to pesue a career in pro sports, a very tiny miniroty of them get to make a living out of it

Also, these white europeans you say are usually +7foot freaks who just play basketball because they are tall

Bullshit. Football is definitely more popular than basketball, but none of those other sports are.

And everyone grows up playing basketball to some degree. You won't find many schools without a basketball court or P.E. classes who don't incorporate it. Football, not so much.

Baseball is more popular and pays better, hate to break it to you

Just giving an example of what American white people used to do in basketball. Hell, Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, and John Stockton all played in the league at the same time yet there isn't a single white American guy at their level playing today. Kevin Love is the only one even approaching great.

>there isn't a single white American guy at their level playing today.

OF course not. You named three hall of fame players and one of them can easily be considered a top 5 alltime player.

because they have virtually nothing else besides basketball to live for in these eurobasket countries like Serbia and Slovenia.

Reminder that Larry Bird only became great because of his impoverished upbringing. The average white american is more concerned with playing video games and masturbating in comfort than excelling at anything meaningful in life.

white americans just watch sports to ogle at buff black guys

american """whites""" are a fucking disgrace to the human race

>Baseball is more popular.
Nobody cares about baseball today except Dominicans and 60+ year old men.

>Pays better
Average NBA salary: 6 million
Average MLB salary: 4 million

MLB has like more than twice the revenue of NBA.

Because old, retired men tend to have more money to put into their favorite sport.

they are intimidated by black men

Eastern europeans arent white, they're ottoman rape babies.

Good post Diego

t. le 56% american white

Soy Boys fear the Big Ballers unlike Dirk

>masturbating in comfort
Thousands of years' of human effort finally achieves the ultimate goal.

Who was the last white American basketball player who was cool and not a goofy Mormon dunk prop? Birdman? White Chocolate?

Euros are taller

50000 games a season, ofcourse they have more revenue dipshit.

Klay Thompson

>bird
>top 5
hell no.

MJ KAREEM LEBRON MAGIC WILT

>Ignores Curry, Thompson, and Ball

Do you even watch the NBA?

>wilt
played in an era with 800 more possessions and a 7 foot black dude shitting on 5'5 white guys
lol

ok, put that aside. are you legitimately saying that bird is better than shaq/hakeem/duncan? lmao

yes. You'd be hyping him as equal to MJ if he wasn't white, you racist shit.

Because there are like 600,000,000 European whites. Like 300,000,000 white males. Then there are like 100,000,000 or so white males in america. Throw in the fact that in Europe all you have is soccer and or Hockey. Both of those don't really require tall players or actually being tall hurts you.

In america baseball playrs 6'2 on average or the nfl 6'1 1/2 (linemen are 6'4 average) sucks up alot of the taller athletes who otherwise would play guards. people like randy moss, TO, Gronk, would be playing guards.

Then to further explain it Basketball is an urban sport and Europe is more urban than anything so that's why they play. Going a little further certain European countries tend to have taller in general people like Germany.

TLDR europe has a larger population of white people, fewer sports sucking up all the tall people, more of an urban environment and certian countres with taller genetics.

>American white males
literally lmao tier

They get better coaching so they are more well rounded. In America, white players that show any decent talent get shoehorned into being 1 dimensional shooters

Larry Bird was ironically better at everything than any two chimps playing apehoop today. Lebron would be a meme jump shooter after two seasons of catching bad boy piston elbows

common misconception.

Since wilts time the average NBA player has gone up 1.5 inches.

Keep in mind they now measure with shoes on so it's actually probably flat lined or the players are the same height. There were like 80 players in the league compared to what they have now. There were fewer teams but when you factor in population size, the teams were actually less diluted than they are now

is there a chart for average weight?

Baseball teams have like double the players you dipshit
So the fact the NBA doesn't make double the money is sad as fuck

nba.com/news/survey_2007.html

back to 1985

I'm looking for the old one. Players pretty much have weighed or asked to be listed around 210-220

recently they've been losing weight at like a rate of 1 pound every 4 years I just read. The nba is getting skinnier again

That also comes in cycles though. When you have a high scoring era weights go down and when you have a low scoring era weights go up.

Anyway Wilt would be called a 7 footer and probably around 260ish who knows really. Dude was freakishly strong.

However Bill Russell was better than him

Yugoslavians and Spaniards arent white though. At best, they all look like a cross between Borat and that main character from Despicable Me

he was better than bill

Bird shits on Shaq from a very great height. Shaq was a talentless chimp who could not shoot to save his life and only got a game due to his height. Bird could do anything and everything.

Yes, watch highlights autist

They go to school instead of hoping on a 1/35,000 chance of a 3 year pro athletic career

dude. Even Wilt Chamberlain the guy with one of the largest egos on the planet said Bill was better than him. Wilt said whatever he wanted whenever and didn't give a shit. For him to say that lol come on man.

Wilt chamberlain regularly talked shit on Jordan and fucked with him for fun. Wilt actually looked up to Bill and towards the end of his career started modelling his game after bill.

lol stay assblasted finnot*rk

we realized baseball, and hockey are better sports

my ancestors were sami

t. Asian

lol at white Americans pretending they could dominate basketball but they just choose not to
