Lots of basketball fans define athleticism overwhelmingly by the "sexy and exciting" traits of explosive speed, foot quickness and jumping ability. As such, and unfortunately, hand-eye coordination, balance, strength and stamina often get overlooked. There have always been a decent number of big-time basketball players who were/are average runners and jumpers. But they rarely have gotten their full due.

Keith Lee, perhaps the all-time greatest Tiger basketball player, was not fast and was not a strong jumper. He even looked somewhat uncoordinated. But his footwork, balance and handling of the ball ... magnificent. Though Lee wasn't fluid, he was a fantastic athlete in his own right.

Athleticism vs. Skills...

You are correct Strength and Stamina are ideals of an athlete.

But coordination I would think more of a skill...Bowlers...Are very skillful...Marksmen are very skillful...But I wouldn't say those skills make them athletes.

There are tons of athletes who have very little coordination.

Keith Lee had great hands for a big man, and got to the right spot on the court over and over almost if by instinct. He had a great drive to finish the play He and Andre were a great tandem. I miss those days.

Lee did, indeed, have excellent hands. He could catch the ball in traffic, shoot with a nice touch, control oddly-bouncing rebounds, pass, etc. What a tremendously skilled big man. He reminded me, in some respects, of Kevin McHale. You don't see big men like that as much nowadays.

Very much like Kevin McHale.

Ardwolf,
Ike would never let a leprechaun drive his Lambo
Remember It's Lavender Jersey not purple
IKE's second choice in the SLINGSHOT he's buying is LAVENDER but, Ike knows Flamingo Pink will be the
Hottest Sling on the street and Ike might load it up with leprechauns and a couple of Peabody ducks if he's permitted to take them on a outing.
