The disrespect for NFL receivers is crazy. It’s not just about being athletic and fast. You have to know how to get out of breaks and not be stiff, you have to know how to beat press, know where to sit down in zone coverage, have late hands, track the football. People don’t realize how good NFL corners are and how hard it is to run good routes.
The main thing is actually getting off the line. That shit takes years to master, there are WR's who have been playing football their entire life and still have to work on releasing. I don't think these basketball players realize that an NFL CB is literally one of the best athletes on the planet. They are asked to run backwards as fast as a guy running forward at full speed.
@josephtanner3929 The crazy thing is that people can simply look at what happens to actual NFL players when they miss extended time. Martavious Bryant is a perfect example. Big tall WR running 4.3. The dude had elite physical gifts. He didn't get injured. He got suspended for 5 years. He came back last season, spent a year on the practice squad, got cut twice, and now he is looking for another opportunity somewhere else. Football is a sport that u have to play on a regular basis to get good at it. If you take 2 years off, your skills will diminish. Now imagine not playing since high school, thinking you can go try out and win a spot over other Elite athletes who never stopped playing.
I remember Charles Barkley in Auburn the football team wanted him so bad he went to one practice and said hes never doing that shit again cus of the pain 😂
Calvin Johnson Jr is my favorite WR of ALL TIME. 6'5" and ran a 4.3 and STILL got shut down at times. These NBA players don't understand the levels of athleticism football players possess.
I kinda agree with Austin. Just not on the quantity, maybe like 5 NBA players. First person that came to mind was Zion Williamson, then maybe Aaron Gordon or Anthony Edwards. A prime LeBron for sure, but like LeBron's living proof of human evolution so that goes without saying! The fact that Antonio Gates a college basketball player made it to the NFL without ever playing college football. I can't think of a case where the opposite's ever happened; a college football player with no college basketball making it to the NBA.

The arguement that some NBA players would make it in the NFL because they were good or even great highschool football players is ridiculous. The gap between HS and College and College to NFL is astronomical. If it wasn't they would allow HS players to enter the draft.
NFL didn't want him he was too short and you gotta understand when he was playing it wasn't alot of black mobile QBs in the league in the early 90s so he had no choice but to play basketball and he was average in the NBA, his name got him in the NBA because he definitely wasn't destroying college basketball
They’re both difficult sports. The skill required to play professional basketball and the physicality required to play football means that no one can transition from one sport to another. Both sports take years of focused training to make it to the professional level. No one is transitioning.
They keep saying receiver, but they mentioning there will be a corner standing across from them jamming them, whats point of having the height if you can't get off the line.
Respect to that bruh !! I tend to forget the times I hit someone hard or was hit hard on kickoff witha. Blindside block but idk I always loved that feeling off getting my get back legally against my opponent
@@tengille Ant-Man first love was football lol. LeBron played football too, but he prolly didn't like the physicality.

There's way more stories of kids growing up playing football who become NBA players than vice versa. Charles told y'all the truth a decade america forgot. It's a no brainier.
@@rpez9742 iverson would have made it to the NFL. he was better at football than he was at basketball. the only reason he chose basketball was because of his mom. he always wanted to be a football player.

That man, if he could learn d-line plays and learn how to shed blocks, he could be nasty because he big, strong, and really quick. Don't know if he could be quick off the line, but man he is explosive.
Everyone that goes to high school can play football, only about 440ish people are elite enough to make the NBA and that's worldwide talent and skillset. River's was wrong though. There may only be 8-10 NBA player that I think would be truly serviceable in the NFL. There are maybe 3 NFL players that would maybe be good enough to ride the bench in the NBA
@@gtparker2317 "Dollar to a donut" spoken like a true unathletic person. I'm 6 feet 6 240 hooper who is ALSO a long distance runner.... AT LEAST 3 miles a day on an airdyne (if you even know wtf that is) at LEAST.. i'm VERY VEERY VERY sure you are no where CLOSE to me athletically.....
In not arguing one way or another but Rivers and others are underestimating just how physical and violent NFL football is, not to mention the insane physical strength nfl players have.
Jimmy Graham was a bench warmer while on the University of Miami's basketball team for three years. Antonio Gates was a power forward on a final four basketball team, and he made to the NFL without playing college football. Tony Gonzalez played basketball Jason Kidd at CAL. Average college hoopers became hall of fame type players in the NFL.
The same Antonio Gates that was a 4 star recruit in HS being recruited by Nick Saban? Stop acting like Gates didn't have football experience. 😆 He was a footballer that decided to play BBALL.
Most of these basketball turned football cats had some experience.. so yea that makes sense.. but u r not playing basketball in HS then playing nothing but football in college and think u r going to the NBA
That was a good example with Jordan Mailata.. remember he played rugby league b4 a 12wk program at IMG.. he still struggled after putting on weight but push his way to a 2nd extension..
Nate Robinson played both, he was a hooper that played Cornerback in College, Jimmy Graham, Demetrius Harris, it’s more than a few guys that hooped first then went to football.
Tony Gonzales, Rob Gronkowski, Donovan Mcnabb, Terrell Owens... Shoot I forgot Randy Moss! There’s highlights with him and Jason Williams hoopin’ in HS
Randy Moss was just an athletic freak. At his prime, he could've put down the football and went into the NBA and been a starter for any team, 100%. They guy, coming out of highschool had just as many college basketball offers, as football offers.
Zion gets injured a lot in the NBA, so imagine him playing football…where part of the game is to hit players extremely hard. Zion would get destroyed.😂
I remember at one point in high school I thought I was a strong dude, I grew up playing soccer but I thought football would be my new sport. I quickly realized I was too small, slow, and weak. It’s a brutal sport and people don’t realize just how strong football players are. Tackling another man takes real strength and technique that is not easily learned
Jimmy Graham played college Basketball for the University of Miami and was drafted by the New Orleans Saints!! He became one of the NFL'S best TE'S during his time with the Saints. Antonio Gonzalez and Antonio Gates also played Basketball. But what I will say is those guys were exceptions to the rule. Although you may find a few on one hand that could play in the NFL, your not going to get 30 that can or want to play. A lot of These NFL WR'S and TE'S have played basketball before to some degree. So it's not impossible by any means. A lot of these guys have played in multiple sports as kids. From Track and Field, to Baseball, Basketball, Soccer.
@@17thN.O If iverson got knocked to the wooden floor with no pads on & got up nearly every time to keep playing, he was prob tough enough to survive the NFL..but he would be the only one at his size that prob could..heck Tyran Maitheu is smaller than AI
Iverson maybe cuz his movement could be a good slot lebron to tall and flops to much he would have to be a TE he ain’t blocking nothing and defensive players would get under his pads he’s 6’9”
They were top 10 in football in HIGHSCHOOL. That kids. Once you at a collegiate level and beyond, thats all grown man strength. AI already admitted to not liking lifting weights so he DEFINITELY aint bulit for the NFL, and LeBron's body may be physically gifted for basketball, but his body isn't built to absorb NFL punishment.
Russell Westbrook would be Steve Smith???? Are they forgetting that he's 6'4"? I think these football players don't realize that NBA players are literal giants.
Actually me being 6’3 @ corner its wayy easier guarding taller fast dudes than for ex: tyreek and cooper cupp recievers so height barley plays anything into it unless u can move like Megatron
I’m surprised they forgot Bron played football and was the number one prospect in Ohio as a wideout while he was in high school 🫠 In an article they likened him to “…a taller, slower version of Randy Moss.” There’s also the time the Cowboys and Seahawks offered him a one year deal to play back in 2011. If he was a bit younger or in his prime he’d definitely be amazing 💯
Why doesn’t Shannon talk about how many NFL guys would be shooting under 30-40% in the NBA & getting ripped every possession bc they have no handles instead of him just talking about how NBA players wouldn’t be able to take the hits in the NFL…
@@benh9935but then he proceeds to talk about how good DJ Burns & Zion would be on an offensive line lol essentially making Austin Rivers point lol he never named anybody from the NFL in todays time he thought could transition to the NBA and be successful so he basically contradicted himself
Wenby couldn't be on the line. He'd just have to get a running start to try and block the field goal before the ball got too high. It would be a non-contact position
One thing to consider though. Basketball requires that you both ways. Ain’t no resting on offense or defense. That’s something many football players aren’t used doing.
LeBron James who was timed at 4.60 in the 40 yard dash at age 28 would be a fantastic TE. Ja Morant with his leaping ability and speed would be a great WR or CB. There are many NBA players that could athletically play in the NFL. It would take some time to get accustomed to the physicality and at least some NBA players would be able to get accustomed to the physicality and some would quit. It would be easier for NBA players to get accustomed to the physicality of the NFL than it would be for NFL players to develop their skills for the NBA.
40 times are worthless unless they are official laser times. Im skeptical of that 4.6 at age 28 years old. That time he ran came from himself and we know Lebron lies a lot to boost his PR. It means nothing. With all that said, I agree with you on it being an easier transition for any athlete to go into football then it is for another sport. Football has too many positions that require a few selected skills, while other sports you need to be more well rounded.
Meanwhile WR's have to block, a corner would throw Ja out of the way and if Ja was a CB he'd get ran over by WR's and for sure a RB and James is mentally soft and would quit..James has zero heart.
High School, and college football ain't the same sport. One rule NFL both feet need to be inbound, high school and college one foot. Two points NFL starts at the 15. College and high school you start at the 3. Those are just the rules. Some of the positions change dramatically from college to NFL. Like running back, tight ends, and linebackers, to name a few.
@@chuckreddick3903 a lot stopped playing to focus on one sport lebron was a all state wide reciever in highschool so he quit football cuz he couldn’t play? No he quit football cuz he got drafted into the nba and instantly got a 100 mill athletes are athletes it just all up to the athlete to go all in on one specific sport alot of football players played baseball and football
Physically yes. Mentally probably not. It takes a different breed to be hit over and over and over play after play after play. Getting into a serious car accident every Sunday. Like most people couldn’t be MMA fighters either. Just not brave enough. Athletically many could possibly be great. But they couldn’t take the physicality. Russ Westbrook or Ant and players like that the exception.
But College Basketballers could?? Guys stop it, they’ve been too many basketballers who didn’t make it to the NBA that became Hall of Fame players in the NFL. Facts!!!
I’ve played both. And hands down basketball would be harder. A WR will never have to do what a quarterback does. Basketball every position has to do what the other does dribble,shoot,handle, defend, it just requires a lot of skills into one player. If I’m a WR I only have to do what a WR does
You couldn’t be more wrong if you wanted. I’ll give you basketball requires more time developing skills like dribbling, shooting, etc. Football is physically more taxing and requires more punishment which shortens careers. I played both at small college and when it was basketball season it was like having a break from a grueling season. I did get in the best cardio during basketball season, but nothing compared the strain of football.
This also silly because there's many NBA players in today's game that's trash at dribbling, can't shoot and can only really defend or rebound.. This post was super silly fr
🧢🧢. This was beyond silly.. There's plenty of NBA players in today's game now that's trash at dribbling, can't shoot, can't defend.. The only semi-leght case is rebounding
Lebron would have been able to play football when he was in his prime, he was an all American in football in high school and if he chose to play football I think it woulda worked out. He’s just a freak athlete. In the nfl I think dk metcalf could play basketball, that dude is a freak athlete
No he couldn't! He has the tools (size, athleticism) to be an NFL player but we have all seen his high school football game footage which his heart was suspect for his superior size. LeBron can barely take the contact in the NBA now without complaining or flopping. There's no flopping in the NFL. NFL players would end him in the first live period. Technique, Heart and "Want to"(Courage) separates the wannabees from the players. Too many failed experiments with hoopers trying to make the league. Gates and Graham both played CFB first.
Lebron would be hit over and over immediately. Yea lebron 6’9’ but all those players hitting him weig the same or more and they are definitely stronger then him. They pressin and hitting him all day.
it's super cliche comment.there are so many former college basketball players playing in the nfl.if they can take a hit so does the nba players.simple is that.
Lmfao na football players say this to make themselves better. Truth is if you’re athletic enough to play both sports and don’t pick the nba you’re not very smart. It’s more money, the money is more guaranteed, you can become a household name easily since we can see your face, women love basketball players more, it’s less physical yet more money, you can also have a longer career playing in the nba than the nfl. Stop it.
Athletic enough don't have anything to do with skill. And nobody said it was smarter to play in the NFL. All football players say you have to be tapped to play.
@@JasenMinus You obviously can’t read. I said for those that are athletic enough to be able to play both it’s smarter to chose basketball for the reasons I listed. Secondly to become a professional at any sport, athleticism is one of if not the primary factor
@@BenBanko no shit, but literally, less athletic players play in the NBA because they have specific roles. In the NFL, you have like 2 or 3 non athletic positions and they involve kicking. Let's not be obtuse. And again, being athletic enough ISNT being skilled enough to play both. I can go out and play basketball and football, but not at the high skill level needed. Again, your mixing skills with athletics. They aren't the same.
Bro, that's because the size of rosters is significantly smaller in the NBA. You have a ridiculously better chance of making money in the NFL vs the NBA. Like how many mfs are getting offers like Kyler did where he could've played Baseball or Football and still made hella bread? Theres like 7 people on the whole planet with that kind of opportunity. Get real
@@Erom909it’s not easier there’s a higher chance but that doesn’t make it easier lmao there’s plenty of guys in the NFL that can go do what a lot of nba players do guys like pat bev who can’t do that?
I was a hooper all my life, then started playing football in middle school... nothing I learned from basketball translated onto the football field, but a lot of what I learned on the football field improved my basketball game tremendously.
Prime example is lebron and Anthony Edward.Both played football and built like football players.Anthony look like he's moving two times faster than the average basketball player that only played basketball.And he have that NFL burst he can run right past a defender with the ball. Strength wise he can play against anybody and come down the lane with anybody.A seven foot 240 pound center ain't nothing compared to a Dt that's 6'7 and 330 pounds ready to take your head off.Im going to take on the seven foot guy. I've seen 6"6 football players that played basketball keep up with pro's all day and also seen basketball players trying to play football and they look slow ass hell. No disrespect for basketball players but when it comes to athleticism football players on a whole different level.
NFL players play with MUCH More endurance not to mention it’s no subs unless you hurt or playing terrible. NBA players barely can touch each other as is
It’s easier for a small skinny basketball player to get big and be a monster in football than it is for a big ol’ lineman to get small and be a monster in the nba, and even then they still might be too small. Ppl are just closed minded.
He exaggerated by saying 30, I’d say 4 maybe. This has already been proven with NFL players like Gates and Mo allie cox, who weren’t good enough to play in the NBA come in and play tight end without any college football experience. If NFL players could play in the NBA they would. & theirs players like Charlie ward, Allen Iverson, & Nate Robinson that were actually better at football than basketball.
Nate was better at hoop. Ai was better at hoop. Nate was pretty solid at football and ai was really good at football but ai was generational talent in basketball

NFL didn't want him he was too short and you gotta understand when he was playing it wasn't alot of black mobile QBs in the league in the early 90s so he had no choice but to play basketball and he was average in the NBA, his name got him in the NBA because he definitely wasn't destroying college basketball

Wemby!? 😂 I screamed!!
Gil doesn't understand the hitting part 😂😂😂😂😂😂
They’re both difficult sports. The skill required to play professional basketball and the physicality required to play football means that no one can transition from one sport to another.
Both sports take years of focused training to make it to the professional level. No one is transitioning.
EXACTLY!!! Why do people have to debate everything? Who cares! Just be great at the sport you play.
This is the real answer.

It's possible. It would be just a few.. I would argue that Charlie Ward had a longer career as a backup point guard, and he won the Heisman trophy.
Yeah, football is a little more physical and dangerous than basketball.
Allen Iverson was nice in football

Jimmy Graham played college Basketball for the University of Miami and was drafted by the New Orleans Saints!! He became one of the NFL'S best TE'S during his time with the Saints. Antonio Gonzalez and Antonio Gates also played Basketball. But what I will say is those guys were exceptions to the rule. Although you may find a few on one hand that could play in the NFL, your not going to get 30 that can or want to play. A lot of These NFL WR'S and TE'S have played basketball before to some degree. So it's not impossible by any means. A lot of these guys have played in multiple sports as kids. From Track and Field, to Baseball, Basketball, Soccer.
I'm sorry I meant Tony Gonzalez!!

Both Unc & Ocho’s reactions to Gil saying “Wendy” was hilarious
Amazing conversation! Ty fellas!

@@17thN.O If iverson got knocked to the wooden floor with no pads on & got up nearly every time to keep playing, he was prob tough enough to survive the NFL..but he would be the only one at his size that prob could..heck Tyran Maitheu is smaller than AI

They were top 10 in football in HIGHSCHOOL. That kids. Once you at a collegiate level and beyond, thats all grown man strength. AI already admitted to not liking lifting weights so he DEFINITELY aint bulit for the NFL, and LeBron's body may be physically gifted for basketball, but his body isn't built to absorb NFL punishment.

There are a couple. Charlie Ward had a very lengthy career in the NBA and he won the Heisman.
What a dumb statement. There are plenty of NBA players getting triple singles every night. Also, the NFL requires more brain power.

Shannon just stood next to Barkley and he looked like a kid had to flex his biceps
Actually me being 6’3 @ corner its wayy easier guarding taller fast dudes than for ex: tyreek and cooper cupp recievers so height barley plays anything into it unless u can move like Megatron
Anthony Edwards would be T.O.
Russ would be more like Brandon Marshall.
Basketball players can't handle the NFL. It's not just about being a giant. They're not built for the NFL physicality.
I’m surprised they forgot Bron played football and was the number one prospect in Ohio as a wideout while he was in high school 🫠
In an article they likened him to “…a taller, slower version of Randy Moss.” There’s also the time the Cowboys and Seahawks offered him a one year deal to play back in 2011. If he was a bit younger or in his prime he’d definitely be amazing 💯
Why doesn’t Shannon talk about how many NFL guys would be shooting under 30-40% in the NBA & getting ripped every possession bc they have no handles instead of him just talking about how NBA players wouldn’t be able to take the hits in the NFL…

Dat Boi brain lil as hell
One thing to consider though. Basketball requires that you both ways. Ain’t no resting on offense or defense. That’s something many football players aren’t used doing.
LeBron James who was timed at 4.60 in the 40 yard dash at age 28 would be a fantastic TE. Ja Morant with his leaping ability and speed would be a great WR or CB. There are many NBA players that could athletically play in the NFL. It would take some time to get accustomed to the physicality and at least some NBA players would be able to get accustomed to the physicality and some would quit. It would be easier for NBA players to get accustomed to the physicality of the NFL than it would be for NFL players to develop their skills for the NBA.
40 times are worthless unless they are official laser times. Im skeptical of that 4.6 at age 28 years old. That time he ran came from himself and we know Lebron lies a lot to boost his PR. It means nothing.
With all that said, I agree with you on it being an easier transition for any athlete to go into football then it is for another sport. Football has too many positions that require a few selected skills, while other sports you need to be more well rounded.
Meanwhile WR's have to block, a corner would throw Ja out of the way and if Ja was a CB he'd get ran over by WR's and for sure a RB and James is mentally soft and would quit..James has zero heart.
what physicality? lmao you cant even touch the WR as a DB, they'd dominate in the NFL

High School, and college football ain't the same sport. One rule NFL both feet need to be inbound, high school and college one foot. Two points NFL starts at the 15. College and high school you start at the 3. Those are just the rules. Some of the positions change dramatically from college to NFL. Like running back, tight ends, and linebackers, to name a few.

But College Basketballers could?? Guys stop it, they’ve been too many basketballers who didn’t make it to the NBA that became Hall of Fame players in the NFL. Facts!!!
I’ve played both. And hands down basketball would be harder. A WR will never have to do what a quarterback does. Basketball every position has to do what the other does dribble,shoot,handle, defend, it just requires a lot of skills into one player. If I’m a WR I only have to do what a WR does
You couldn’t be more wrong if you wanted. I’ll give you basketball requires more time developing skills like dribbling, shooting, etc. Football is physically more taxing and requires more punishment which shortens careers. I played both at small college and when it was basketball season it was like having a break from a grueling season. I did get in the best cardio during basketball season, but nothing compared the strain of football.
This also silly because there's many NBA players in today's game that's trash at dribbling, can't shoot and can only really defend or rebound.. This post was super silly fr

Lebron would have been able to play football when he was in his prime, he was an all American in football in high school and if he chose to play football I think it woulda worked out. He’s just a freak athlete. In the nfl I think dk metcalf could play basketball, that dude is a freak athlete
He wasn’t All-American. He was average at best.😂😂
No, he wouldn’t have been. He can’t stand contact.
No he couldn't! He has the tools (size, athleticism) to be an NFL player but we have all seen his high school football game footage which his heart was suspect for his superior size. LeBron can barely take the contact in the NBA now without complaining or flopping. There's no flopping in the NFL. NFL players would end him in the first live period. Technique, Heart and "Want to"(Courage) separates the wannabees from the players. Too many failed experiments with hoopers trying to make the league. Gates and Graham both played CFB first.
No Lebrun is too soft
Lebron would be hit over and over immediately. Yea lebron 6’9’ but all those players hitting him weig the same or more and they are definitely stronger then him. They pressin and hitting him all day.
it's super cliche comment.there are so many former college basketball players playing in the nfl.if they can take a hit so does the nba players.simple is that.

Big facts
I was a hooper all my life, then started playing football in middle school... nothing I learned from basketball translated onto the football field, but a lot of what I learned on the football field improved my basketball game tremendously.
I disagree defending somebody on the court is very similar to covering a receiver. Thats how i transitioned into football from basketball
Prime example is lebron and Anthony Edward.Both played football and built like football players.Anthony look like he's moving two times faster than the average basketball player that only played basketball.And he have that NFL burst he can run right past a defender with the ball. Strength wise he can play against anybody and come down the lane with anybody.A seven foot 240 pound center ain't nothing compared to a Dt that's 6'7 and 330 pounds ready to take your head off.Im going to take on the seven foot guy. I've seen 6"6 football players that played basketball keep up with pro's all day and also seen basketball players trying to play football and they look slow ass hell. No disrespect for basketball players but when it comes to athleticism football players on a whole different level.
No chance in hell 30 nfl players could do anything in the nba! They would be gassed after the first commercial timeout.

He exaggerated by saying 30, I’d say 4 maybe. This has already been proven with NFL players like Gates and Mo allie cox, who weren’t good enough to play in the NBA come in and play tight end without any college football experience.
