quote:How so? I'm finding it unlikely that there's NBA guys who could play in MLB. Even most MLB draft picks never make it to MLB
Even within your example, 99% (maybe more) of MLB players could likely look better as an amateur on the basketball court, but would never, ever have the ability to play an NBA game. The NBA has, THEORETICALLY, more guys who could translate to the MLB.
If you took NBA and MLB players and put them in local adult rec leagues in the opposite sport, the MLB players would fare far better on average in an amateur basketball rec league than NBA players would do in amateur baseball leagues.
