Why are black guys so good at bball?* not racist..my gf's black and she told me.?

Question

bc they can run, shoot, and steal!

Answer 1

i think the reason is because its a sport we like to play, I'm a black female and I'm pretty good, but iv been playing longer then i can remember. people tend to be good at things they do allot, Hispanic people tend to play soc cor well are they built different then anyone else, i say no they just start playing at two years old and its apart of there culture. i think that saying blacks are genetically different is racist. white people don't dance well because they don't grow up listening to dance type music, the ones that do listen to r&b music tend to dance better. i think everyone learns what they are taught. * just because u have a black gf doesen't mean your not racist, maybe you just like black woman.

Answer 2

Ok...... but there's actually some real reasoning to it.
Basketball requires a certain degree of speed and, or course, you have a marked advantage if you are taller. Africans tend to have more members of their race that end up being above average in height, and many of the winners of marathons through the years were from Kenya or other African nations.
For African-Americans that are decendants of the slave era, they are the result of selective breeding to make better workers. Generations later, there are still a high number of naturally athletic African-Americans.
The short answer is that their genetics give them an initial advantage, but it's the years of practice that put it away.

Answer 3

well with the acception of me being black i dont think it has nuthing to do race i just think black ppl are borne to play bball but there are also some good players who arnt black

Answer 4

well because most black people are just genetically built with bigger stronger muscles than other races. It all has to do where your anscestors came from all black people came from Africa where we had to run down our food and run from wild animals and fight because they didn't have guns to just shoot people with so over time their muscles and bones became stronger and able to more things

Answer 5

in medical "terms" these might not be exactly right my memory is a little fuzzy but the body has 3 types of tendons red-long, red-short, & white-long....
white people seem to have more white-long and red-long....while blacks havea tendancy to have more long-white & red-shorts making them contract more giving them a better run, jump, steal phisyic
