re: Austin Rivers on NFL being easier than the NBA

Over 99% of NBA players have never played college football, and I would guess less than 20% played high school football. My old arse played high school football and the level of pain/recovery time after a Friday night was a real thing. And that's small time high school football.
Unless they played at a high level of high school football, there is no NBA player that could play in an NFL game. I am not knocking basketball, it is just another animal entirely.

I would bet the opposite. I'd say probably about 30-50% at least played high school football.
These guys are all elite level athletes. Elite athletes very rarely play 1 sport growing up. Look at all the guys in the NBA, NFL, MLB, a good bit played at least 2/3 of the big 3 in highschool. If not that, then then likely ran track.
