At 7 feet, I'd be running a basketball camp for rich families children. U don't gotta be that good to teach kids the basics. And folks will think u are more legit cause of ur absurd height. This dude is just losing. I don't think I ever seen a 7 footer non basketball player in my life.

Height is great to a point and too much of that can be bad as well. As much as I like to play the race card and say "he's white... that's why," I'm not going to do that. The reality is that most 7 footers rarely pan out in sports because they have problems harnessing whatever skill they have, if they have any to begin with. In the NBA there has only been a small handful of 7 footers that have been dominant(and by small I mean 2... Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain). The rest have been average to not very good at all.

I know people that I grew up with that were 6'6 or taller that you would think would be supreme athletes but they weren't, mainly because these people had a difficult time with utilizing their motor skills. Very tall people have problems with movement(not as fast or agile as shorter people)and I know more than a few that couldn't catch any ball to save their lives. Russell and Wilt probably worked HARD and was blessed to have good motor skills and be durable, another con of being extra tall. For every Wilt and Russell, there's a Ghorghe Muresan, a Shawn Bradley and a Yinka Dare.

So what you're saying that, to be able to play professionally, you still need to have some kind of skill, regardless of height?
who would have thought :ohhh:
