cant box, too lanky and skinny
tennis, football, basketball, theyre great
Yeah I saw some video of Americans playing Serbs at basketball and the US guy was like "Sorry man was that a foul" and the other guy said "We are Serbian, we don't call foul - if you kill me maybe I say foul" or something like that.
I was watching some video where this guy was making this argument that if America put more resources into football then it would be winning world cups easily, and people were all going "Yeah, we have the best athletes, I mean, imagine LeBron playing soccer" - but looking at the evidence at the moment I'm thinking they got that argument backwards. There are about fifty people in Europe who play basketball and I believe that about half of the top ten NBA players are European. Imagine if just Serbia concentrated on basketball (at the moment it's about even with football I believe), they would probably be better than the US in a few years. That Joker guy is officially Slovenian but he is Serbian by descent (as I was told several times while I was there).
Also - apologies for this question, you probably have to explain it a lot - but how does the draft work? Cos now you got this French guy who is like seven foot five and everyone has been wetting themselves over him for some time. Fair enough, he looks like he's gonna be good right? And he was first pick in the draft, as everyone knew he would be. But what decides which team gets the first pick - is it just random or does it rotate, or is it based on where you finished last time or what?
Please someone explain it to me properly and I promise to understand and remember.
Also, how easy is it to say how good someone is at this point? I've seen everyone going crazy on this guy, but as a rule how good do predictions made at this age tend to be?
