Corey Maggette average NBA superstar?…… ye rit…
racing drivers have the best reaction times period.
ahh didn’t think about that. Thx
@SuperiorSwagon1 they have to be able to start as in as soon as they hear the gun shot they jump way before the average joe
what do swimmers have to react to other than the water?
@HlgTheJabb3rw0ck as in to the other episodes like the one with jerry rice
i thought swimmers have some of the best reaction time correct me if im wrong
Nash has better peripheral vision cuz his eyes are nearly a full meter apart >>
i like this show, but they can’t seem to get real guys to make real test, i mean they brought jordan farmar for hangtime test??!! farmar is not bad but there are real highflyers around…and now maggette testing point guard skills..weird
Why would Corey Magette have peripheral vision? All he seems to see is the hoop. They should ask a good point guard or some old retired guy like Magic Johnson, John Stockton, etc.
If you play basketball, you gotta check out – snipurl[dot]com/nbatraining. I highly recommend it! I’m 5’7 and started dunking after just 2 months of the program!
that means steve nash is like.. unhuman..
yeah, i mean there’s no doubt magette can stop on a dime and move left or right way faster then the average person. Partially because his footspeed is faster, partially because his balance is better.
maybe the average joe, in this case john, is just slow..? as in.. moves slower..
love this show. can i get it on iTunes?
lol alright. That part was pretty stupid.
i think i was mocking the video i.e. how they labeled the 6 ft b/t corey and that guy to be literally one light year. i really don’t like this show…
light year is distance
Its not all reaction time. They see the players with them as they come down the court and because of player chemistry they know how that player will act as he gets to the basket. You don’t always need to see the other player to know where he is on the court.
it has nothing to do with periferal vision…its about drawing two defenders and knowing where the open man is gonna be
fraction of second = 1 light year
this is crazy. the thing about their being 2 feet of seperation – pretty sure its because they weren’t dead even since maggette can probably run 10 steps a lot faster than the other guy.
Not really agree with that vid lol
Because it’s something that Nash got it’s experience lol
He “knew” or better felt when a player is at some point or not… Practice and game time….
Not better eye vision
I see you’re point. To the average person, Corey Maggette is a bona fide NBA superstar (he’s certainly paid like one, despite coming off the bench).
But it would be funny if lesser players were introduced as scrubs: Here to demonstrate this experiment, please welcome NBA scrub Alex Acker…
Well he isn’t a scrub, he is one of the elite scorers in the league, a starter(well he’s 6th man this year but basically a starter). Basis enough to call him a superstar to the general public I’d say…if you’re an actual NBA fan or player or coach though you’d probably just reserve that for guys like Nash, Wade, whoever but it’s no big deal.
