Is there a difference between a non-profit and a not-for-profit?

I have a really hard time understand how 6-7 years make such a difference in the nba? Someone explain?!?

  • I have a really hard time understanding how 6-7 years (age wise) makes such a significant difference in the nba. For example lebron James is 27 and he's so explosive, fast, can jump high, doesn't get injured or tired, is really athletic. But Kobe Bryant is 33, Kevin Garnett is 35, Tim Duncan is 35, Vince carter is 35, Paul pierce is 34, and those players have no athleticism, speed, leaping ability, stamina. Basically all the things I named for lebron these guys don't have. It's not like there is a 20 year age difference. The age difference between lebron and those guys I named is 6-8 years. Why does it make such a difference?!?!?! I just don't understand why and how that makes a difference. Maybe it's cause I'm still young, but I just don't understand. Can someone please explain to me in a detailed answer why just 6-7 years makes sucha difference.

  • Answer:

    These guys constantly play ball all the time and they all go through injuries. The older you get the more prone you get to injuries. Once you hit about 30 you're more brittle and you have to develop a slow game. Look at Dwyane Wade, he's 30 and is now getting injured more because of the way he plays.

Athletes bodies are stressed to high standards daily so there bodies wear out very fast, Kobe for example is still in obviously very healthy but not in his prime.

kobe is Shi+ ,the only reason why he has good stats is because he takes 25 shots per game and he averages the most minutes in the nba

you peak athletically around 30! Then you start going down hill from there! Depending on injuries and work ethic, you can play well into your late 30's! But you lose some of your quickness, explosiveness and the ability to recover that you had when you were in your prime!

When you played so much basketball games your body wears down . Kobe is still athletic but nobody can run and jump that fast if they have like 20 something surgery in the past 10 years . If Kobe or Vince Carter was just starting their NBA career they wouldn't be Lebron but I bet they would be at least 20 percent more athletic than what they are now .

Throughout the years these players are taking injuries and as you keep playing through them and age at the same time it catches up.
