Some of the local guys in Houston were talking recently about JJ Watt and how he's often referred to as having "a motor" and being relentless on the field. The truth is that he's a freakish athlete with immense strength and an obscene vertical leap.
This popped in my head. Are only white basketball players called soft. Unless the black one is educated like grant hill and went to duke or a euro. Intelligence equals soft Hood equals hard. Euro equals all thats bad except an outside shot. Like whitey. Basically the closer you are to a prisoner the better basketball player. Tatts included. Chris Paul isn't called soft and he's smart. Maybe he's an exception.
bad analogy, any euro league players play a different style of basketball that includes a lot of flopping and aversion to most contact, thats why they are called soft, see Gasol and Ginobuli for examples.
Not really. I know that they play that way which stereotypes them so it fits. All are basically called soft correct? Stereotypes are often true to a degree but unfair to some.
French and Spanish people are pussies. Germans are not that is why dirk isn't soft. Tony Parker is black but French so is is soft but also athletic. Meta world peace is black from my neighborhood so he is hard but smart and crazy which is rare, not a lot of crazies like him in the league except for Gilbert arenas.
I definitely agree that euro whites are soft. Stupid euros League needs euro whites from the dumb tough countries like Poland and Albania. This guys are dumb as shit but scary tough
