True Or False: AI Was More Athletic Than John Wall
I'm saying true. Wall is bigger and prob. jumps as high
but I don't actually think he's quite as quick or as fast as AI and his lateral quickness and body control in the half court aren't nearly as good.

Good college starter
Re: True Or False: AI Was More Athletic Than John Wall
I think this is false, John Wall is the fastest player in a time where we are at the peak of extremely athletic Point Guards. No knock on AI, Wall is just a freak of nature.

Was John Wall also recruited by top level schools for his ability in football? If not, how can he even be considered against 2-dimensional AI?

Wall is 3-4 inches taller and just as fast (if not faster) with more hops

Definitely not more hops. I'd say these dunks are more impressive than any Wall had in college or the NBA

But yeah, I think it's close. It's just that AI was legitimately a five star football prospect as well as being the top bball player in the nation. He was so skinny, but also so strong and changed directions more fluidly than Wall, while also being able to weave his way through defenders mid-air better.
AI's athleticism is prob. a bit slept on. Wall is still great, though.

Probably Iverson. As for hops, Iverson had a higher vert (41 to Wall's 39)

If Curry had Iverson's athleticism, he'd be GOAT.
If Curry had Wall's athleticism, he'd be a worse player.
Wall/Westbrook/Lebron need a head of steam, can run only in straight lines or jump off one foot (left leg). Iverson is more athletic than all of them combined.

Bob yall really just be on this website saying anything huh? How would having one of the top if not the top athleticism in the league harm you?

Iverson is quicker and more nimble...Wall is more explosive.

Wall also has 2 360's layups through contact.....in consecutive games.

Wall would have been a highly recruited football player, but he was forbidden to continue playing by his basketball coach. One site I found actually compared him to a young Allen Iverson as a football player.
