DeAndre Jordan is proving NBA haters wrong. It is, in fact, possible to succeed in the NBA simply by being really tall and really athletic. Fundamentals don’t exist in DeAndre’s world. Free Throws? Nah. Just run and jump and flail your arms. The recipe for NBA success.
I’m not hating or anything. He’s a fun player to watch. He makes funny faces sometimes. He’s not a team cancer or anything. Just a guy who can’t do anything outside that paint.
People just do what’s most enjoyable for them. If I were a freakishly tall behemoth I would dunk it all day, screw free throw practice. But as a dude of limited stature, I find the most enjoyment in shooting threes. That’s just how it is.
