Yao was great. Just those injuries ☕️
Jamie Jaquez graduated from UCLA.
The global game in general has been getting better & better. Many of the top NBA players rn are from Europe & Africa. The US didn't even get a medal at the recent FIBA championship. The Asian game is getting better too with more professional leagues in Asia. But height plays a big factor. Ohtani is considered huge in Asia at 6'4" but that's a point guard's height in the NBA...
Surprisingly Yuta Watanabe is 6'9". I've seen some crazy tall Northern Chinese people. I'm surprised there's not more Chinese in NBA, also I heard basketball is huge in China.
@JapanQuest yeah but the point guards are all like 5'6" 😅 fast af tho
Making the NBA is very hard. It’s also just a numbers game. More blacks, whites, euro etc play basketball than Asians so that’s why you see more of them in the NBA than Asians. Also the girls game is not as competitive than men’s so it’s easier for Asian girl hoopers to make it. Boys/men’s is super competitive even at the younger age like elementary level.
Keisei Tominaga looks great as an offensive player but defensively he will struggle. Just like Jimmer Fredette.
We can if given the chance.
In terms of sports in general, shohei and Yamamoto just shattered the stereotypes. In women’s golf Asians have been dominating
Asians need to do that in basketabll though. There’s always had been many Asian baseball players and baseball is a boring sport.
There has never been Asian stereotypes in baseball after ichiro. Stop applying your failures in other sports like basketball, sports that don’t fit for Asians to sports Asian have been doing good in for a long time. Nobody is stereotyping a Japanese baseball player. They are feared.
Remember Yao Ming, a.k.a. "The Dynasty"? Bring it!
Lol the way yall r pronouncing Jaime and Rui 😂
Looking forward to seeing more Asian/Asian Americans in major professional sports..
We are starting to see more in baseball and soccer. Unfortunately, less in basketball.
It's either Harvard OR the NBA. Not both. People get jealous.
Keep on looking; it won't happen anytime soon.
@@lm-pw9ul Duke and the NBA sounds good.😁
@@anthonyhoang5902there’s always been more in soccer and baseball. It’s your own fault for focusing on basketball when the sport is clearly not built for Asians, just truth.
Jun seok yeo of Korea is the real future of Asian basketball in US.
🧢🧢🧢
Coincidentally, Gonzaga has Vietnamese twins on their girls team too.
18year old Yang Hansen from China has a decent chance I think. His game is whats "hot" in the NBA right how because he shows flashes of Jokic/Sengun level passing combined with great rim protection and post moves(led in assists and blocks in U19 world cup). He's has a big wide frame(at least 250lbs already now) and is a legit 7'1 with a 7'5'' wingspan. He has very high basketball IQ and plays like a veteran at such an early age. Def. has a good future ahead if he doesn't rot in the CBA
Its unfair to put players with half asian and half other race to be included. Full asians have shorter legs, arms for their height, plus smaller frame. To have other race (white, black) mixed in, sometimes they take those traits and becomes a nba player. There are alot of 6'6 + pure asians in asian countries that play in their countries basketball teams, that have 0 chance to make it to the nba, even if they practice their whole lives. Short arms and legs definitely limits you. This is coming from a asian person who is born in america and played against all races here
I agree with you, Hachimura is mixed but what about Yuta Watanabe, he's full Asian.
@@JapanQuest yuta is tall, plus he is not that great of a nba player overall. There will be some pure asians that will make it, but its very small. Jeremy lin is a rare exception. Yao is super tall but his arms are shorter than his height, and he has short legs. The rest were never good, but were 7 footers (zhou qi, wang zhelin, wang zhizhi, yi jianlian, minke bateer). The rest of the half blooded nba players would have never made it if both of their parents were asian. Jalen green, jaylin williams, rui, clarkson. Kyle anderson is 12.5% chinese but his relatives are all short in china. If his great grandpa never left china, he would be 5'6. All half blooded asians overall are better than the full blooded asians in the nba.
Not every black player has long arms and elite athleticism so I think you are unfortunately defeating yourself with stereotypes. Look at Desmond Bane, Jimmy Butler, good players who dont possess elite limbs or athleticism. I guarantee you, it's possible to find Asians with that raw talent on their level out of a few billion. It comes down to culture and practice. Imagine if our parents grilled us as hard in sports as they do in academics? You would see a ton more Asian-Americans in pro sports.
@@nonhan1801 im over generalizing here. Averages are averages. There are rare exceptions. 5'3 muggsy bogues played in the nba for 14 years but not every 5'3 guy on earth can make it. Think about how many indians and chinese are on this planet, and how many made it to the nba. Long arms, legs, big frame help. Please watch the cba (china) games on UA-cam, and you will see the level of play, there are many chinese over 6'8 but their play is much slower. The best players of china, the Olympic team, no one is in the nba, and some cant even make it onto a d1 college roster. The worst nba team will destroy them.
@@wl6020 The worst NBA teams would destroy any Africa League team too. Does that mean African descent has bad genetics for basketball? Obviously not as there are plenty of African Americans in the NBA. There are way more Africans than African Americans. Theoretically they should dominate right if race is the biggest factor right? Culture and training is still the biggest factor in success if you look at it that way.
I'm sure NBA wants him to create the Wemby vs. Zach matchup for decade.
NBA wants the game to go global. This brings in more money. If the blacks can have it their way, they'd want the league to be blacks only. See how often they look forward to dunking on a white guy.
Edey is good for college but theres no need for him in the NBA. He needs to be able to shoot 3s. Don't think Edey will be used to for the Chinese market either.
Jeremy Lin was so unbelievably underrated. How the NBA treated him is disgusting, and I can't help his race had something to do with it. Don't watch NBA anymore. The deplorable reffing, allowing other players to violently foul Lin, often to the head and neck, was disgusting.
any word on kai sotto..?
Interesting, the problem is most minorities do not own any of the teams (this is true for African Americans and Asians). Team ownership should be a goal before playing or at least afterwards (but it cost a pretty penny and one has to be up for sale, Michael Jordan sold his ownership in the team he had for billions).
Mongolian Mike from USF
He suxx. Keisei is much better.
Some of the best hoopers i know are asian... And im from Seattle lol
Did he just call swimming a "small ball sport" coz the water is cold?
No mention of Jordan Clarkson?!?
Clarkson is not even Filipino..
@@albertsebastian4489 OK don’t leave us hanging?
@@albertsebastian4489his mom pilipina mofo
Jalen Green is half pinoy too
I dont know about the nba but i dominate my local courts no worries. Black guys, white guys.......they know not to mess with me !!!!!
We asians got to use our advantages. Its not height, but quickness and agility (think gymnastics), no one has faster reflexes or agility than us.
He will be the next most dominate center in nbA
Nah. He should model himself after Ivica Zubac and Isiah Hartenstein, and he'll be a good NBA player.
Princeton Tigers! Go Ivy League...
Latinos don’t get a fare shake in basketball. Look at Jaime Jaquez though!
Asians being accepted "politically" in the NBA is about a constant push over time. Because the gatekeeping is real.
Wny do the half-asians always have asian mothers?
Because Asian women have much higher SMV than Asian men in western societies.
internalized racism
Asian women like white men. It's pretty simple and white men want someone they can control or that fits the stereotype of an Asian woman. Some Asian women believe they will have blue eyed and blonde hair babies (I have run into Asian women who thought this sadly, kind of hard to do with little no mixing until recently unless you count Filipinos, parts of India and some places in China, etc.
@@dr.migueltorrezedd8651 I know an Asian woman who within a year married a blonde hair blued eyed white man, posted that shit all over instagram, and now all those photos have been scrubbed/deleted. I think we can conclude that shit didn't work out like she wanted to lmao.
@@nonhan1801 wmaf marriages do work out well statistically. Not all marriages are happy just because they exist. Same can be said for amaf. Let's live in reality.
Just based off the guys highlights in this video there's zero chance he survives in the NBA. He can't switch on defense and NBA guards will cook him every possession. Like you said Postplaying Centers are not valued at all, Jahil Okafor couldn't last in the NBA despite having a great post game and being a number 3 pick. Most Asian players just suck at defense cause they're too slow and not physical. Not saying all, but most
Wmaf is a sport
No racism here... 🤨🤨🤨🤥🤥🤥😕😕
Asians need to be successful in basketball to rly break the stereotypes not baseball. Baseball is a boring sport anyway.
Now now, in America the big 4 sports leagues are: NFL, NBA, MLB, and Soccer is global.
We need the Chinese to start entering NBA. We have Son Heung-min a good Korean role model for Soccer, Ohtani for baseball. China is basically Asia's hope for basketball.
Japan and Korea main sports are Soccer and Baseball. China is definitely the best at Basketball in Asia so we need more Chinese players to enter NBA, I remember watching Yao Ming.... He was too dominant.
No, they cannot. Only half blck & half Azn ones like Rui Hachimura have a chance.
Asian should just play ping pong
That’s racist, China is second to America in gold medals at the Olympic.
Hell yea, best sport ever
Half-breeds? They don't count. Red & White makes Pink, but Pink is neither Red nor White.
Aint no way Gohan is stronger than Broli!! Preposterous!!!
