Like ordinary height, wingspan and bounce, these data can no longer be called talent in the NBA, but at best they are basic values! Because almost everyone in the NBA is a good player who can run and jump, when these basic talents have become a common phenomenon, it may be necessary to compete for some strange talents.
Let's take a look at James's calf first!
Many NBA players have thin calves and look good, such as McGrady and Iverson. James's calf is different from theirs. Although it is not that thin, it feels very "solid". For an inappropriate analogy, McGrady and Iverson's calves look very worrying: how can such thin calves bear the weight of NBA players? But look at James's calf again, and you will feel very relieved.
Old Zhan's calf looks very strong, neither too thick nor too thin, just right. In fact, this is also the reason why James has been able to maintain his peak since he entered the league in 2003: James is so sad! Looking through all the injury history of Lao Zhan's career, the most serious injury is the groin tear after coming to the Lakers. Other players may have suffered injuries such as achilles tendon, knee and meniscus at his age, but Lao Zhan's bones have always been strong.
I have always thought that James's greatest talent is his physical strength and endurance. James can still run on the court like a Mesozoic player when others retire in their thirties.
Brother Xin's achilles tendon is definitely the top in the NBA!
What does Achilles tendon mean? You can touch your heel, there is a tendon on it, from the heel to the vicinity of the calf, which is the achilles tendon. The longer the achilles tendon, the higher the upper limit of its bounce and speed! We yellow people are born with a short achilles tendon, which may be about ten centimeters. And an NBA player who is about 2 meters tall, his achilles tendon is generally more than 25 cm.
Brother letter's achilles tendon is 34 cm long! What is this concept? If you are 1.70 meters tall, according to the general proportion, the length of your calf may be about 35 cm, which means that an Achilles tendon of Brother Alphabet is as long as an ordinary adult man's calf! No wonder Brother Alphabet can be a monster in the NBA. It's a gift.
Of course, the achilles tendon can actually be changed with the exercise the day after tomorrow. For example, those track and field athletes, their achilles tendon is very long and strong, but after all, there is an upper limit for the promotion the day after tomorrow, and the lower limit brought by the letter brother is even higher than the upper limit of many people. How can this make sense?
Many fans know that Durant's feet are long and look like a boat. Therefore, Durant's signature shoes are particularly tight to wear, but in order to cater to the fans, we can see how narrow KD's shoes are in the game!
Durant's hands are a little strange except his feet. Everyone knows that Leonard and Bo Ban are famous big-name players in NBA. Actually, KD's hands are not bad. Look at the picture below. The fan with Durant looks tall, but his palm is almost half as long as Durant's. And KD's hand is very strange in shape, like a tentacle, thin and long.
Now do you know why Durant, who is 2m 10, can still play as a defender on the court? KD can almost hold the ball with one hand when dribbling. What can't this talent do? However, the average player with a big palm can't shoot accurately, but Durant's projection is his killer, which is not easy.
After reading James' calf, Xin Ge's achilles tendon and Durant's palm, you should understand what a genius in NBA is, right? This may also be the reason why we ordinary people can't enter the NBA no matter how hard we try! Those people were born for basketball. Except for basketball players, you may never find such a strange top physical talent again.
