Interesting. I came here from Hardwood Amino as Lil Shrek

I’m a huge baseball fan and I’m sick of hearing espn say it’s a problem with the lack of black players in the mlb. Yet no one mentions anything about no white players in the nba

"Why is the NBA predominantly black?" is the same question as to why the NHL is predominantly Canadian. Basketball is a common part of our athletic culture. Just like in Canada, it's common to see kids play street hockey in the neighborhood or play pick up on frozen ponds and lakes.

when it’s predominately white sport it’s apparently “racism”. So i would say this is racism as well.

[CallMeMicahT]

It’s still mind blowing that this question hasn’t been studied more. I see African Americans dominating most sports, not just the NBA, and it’s impressive to the point that it needs to be analyzed. Genuinely loved your answer to this and subscribed.

Agreed on the cultural part, there is actually an old saying in Chinese history, which says everything is inferior compared to studying

[jacobfield]

Height is more important than skill in Basketball.

[JAPARICAN-]

This is the same reason I don’t justify the nba as a diverse league when 80 percent of the league is black. Not like the mls where there is all sorts of cultural backgrounds and is all even simply because it’s the only sport where height or size doesn’t give you advantage and you can go pro being 5’6”

It's controversial if it's 'correct' that certain races have a genetic deposition towards certain things. This is simply a 'no go zone' in polite cultural environments.

[Jamsome]

I don’t even play basketball, and I’m white I just searched this up out of curiosity. 😂

[Hillers]

At 2:57 ...if I were to reverse this statement, I would be called a racist...

[xtradrew]

I’ve been wanting to know this forever

[joshuabrant]

More fast twitch muscles = better jumpers.

Like you said black folks have a genetic advantage when it comes to speed, quickness and agility. As a group they are just better at certain sports that require these things. That's indisputable when you look at the huge disparity that exists in the NBA numbers. The woke people would say this is racist. No, it's just fact and facts are facts. LeBron is stupendous but he's just the next great BB player in a very L O N G line of great players from the Black community. Basketball is absolutely perfect for their genetic skill set.

[Backwardsman]

I'm 5' 8" and white. Pretty sure if I were black I still had no chance in professional sports

[MoTheDawahMan]

speed power and agility have nothing to do with race

[mrcv]

NO bro nothing controversial we aint stupid liberals we understand there are genetic differences that makes diferences in society

[wendys]

I think it’s in large part the social pressures answer. There’s that black belief that the only way out of the hood is to become an entertainer or athlete. So they focus on it more than other races. Go by a park with basketball courts and you will see all blacks. There is probably some genetics to do with it, mainly when it comes to speed probably, but overall it’s probably still closer in line with other races. You don’t see blacks in hockey because they don’t play it. You don’t see black swimmers because blacks don’t swim. You see Mexicans in the MLB because Mexicans play baseball. I think that’s the main reasons.

None of you are getting it it’s not just that black guys grow up playing ball very early a cultural thing it’s the difference in physicality their bodies are shaped differently, and the muscle composition is different, how white vs black body’s are shaped. Black bodies are just better built for athletics, shorter calves better for high Jumps and running faster, larger glutes assist in power, agility
Physically they are born way ahead of the athletic game.
Rhythm also plays a part to be able to make smooth moves quicker turns, quick hand moves it’s internal timing. I teach pilates and I see the physical difference in my clients when teaching moves to execute during an exercise. Every race moves differently Facts. Also some sports you need to be tall and some like gymnastics or ice skating you can’t be too tall Facts
