89 Days until Steelers vs. Falcons

Sports wise, don`t watch much other than pro football.

Trying to pass the time and considering watching the OTHER football, team USA, but figure soccer is probably boring and I don`t know the rules.

Use to live in NY and was sort of a Knicks fan, but lost interest until just recently.

 

Being 5-8 slow pasty white and not having a team in Pittsburgh some how I never got into NBA

I do watch the NCAA basketball tournament because it’s a bunch of kids playing for their teammates

 

Only time I was into Basketball was the last time I lived in Chicago, and the Bulls were winning left, and right. I seen them live a few times. NBA average height is a 6' 7
It's a elitist game of height.
It's the only pro sport I can think of like that.

 

A friend took me to see Michael Jordan play against Larry Bird in Chicago Stadium circa 1988 (?) my only game

I figured that covered me

 

I was back in Chicago right after that, about 92 was when I moved back there.

 

Aaron Smith

Stephon Tuitt

Kevin Greene

 

It’s a game of skill.

Stockton 6’1”
Kerr 6’1”

being tall has its advantages but being quick, with a good jumper and good vision can get you far in basketball.

 

The Answer

AI before there was A.I.

 

I was saying Average height my friend , and their average height in the NBA is 6'7.
Just like the average height in the NFL is 6'2, but we see guys under 6 foot play all over, but 6'2 is still the average height.
Also I didn't watch the game, but I watched highlights. As I said in the earlier post , I've not actually kept up with the NBA in years. Hell I just heard last night who won last year. LoL

 

Yeah that's awesome, and yet the Average height is still 6'7, and so it has been for at least 40 years. So the names You are therefore throwing out are outliers.

 

A. Smith wore it best

 

TJ Watt

 

Huh?? Did this make You mad?? I can't help that the average height of the NBA is 6'7.
Now which one can be had by anyone, and which one can't??
Also you said average weight of people who aren't fat?? Have You seen the OL, and how big they are after they quit. They carry lots of fat.
Also average Height of a man is 5'9.
So again. The NBA at an average height of 6'7 is a height elitist sport.
You can gain weight, You can't grow taller
How long can we keep this up??

 

TJ Watt, when it is all said and done, will likely be a Top 10 All Time 3-4 OLB in NFL History. I separate the likes of 4-3 DE and 3-4 OLB for the responsibilities of both are far too different in scale or scope. Mashing them together and calling them EDGEs is silly as far as ranking them goes.

 

This 100 %

 

Bennie Cunningham

 

I don't. I was just trying to see how far we would take this. LoL
