A better question would be: Is a 30-year old Yao Ming less athletic than a 40-year-old Dikembe Mutombo?
I imagine they're all pretty good athletes, but . . . Manute Bol, Billy Paultz, Tayshaun Prince . . .
Hmm does it mean slow or actual movement/jumping? I woud say B.Lopez since the guy never leaves the ground like Zbo
Why do you guys say Zach Randolph isn't athletic? Because he's not super ripped and can't jump out the roof? If you factor in Zach's strength and sheer power and combine it with his, quickness and agility he's by all means athletic.
Boris diaw, Jason Collins, luke Walton, Chris duhon, Brad miller(probably retired,not sure), just to name a few.
<br> Was gonna ask if that was Aaron Gray, but then I saw it in your img tag. Damn he let himself go...
A lot of these guys are relatively unathletic but really tall, so their lack of athleticism isn't really anything special. I think Nash is up there, people on this board have better basketball bodies than him.
Air Gray begs to differ -- <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JqNMP-_h8yw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
I don't think Z-Bo is the least athletic, but he's the best and highest profile player who is in the conversation.
Athletic is such a vague term. Javalee Mcgee has bad hands, makes poor decisions, and can't dribble under control, but guy has hops. Omer has a strong base and good instincts, but really doesn't jump a lick. Same with Chuck Hayes. I think Andre Miller is a great candidate. Could never shoot or jump, but gets the job done on D, in the paint, and setting up his teammates
