I think that the stereotypes about black people being good at basketball is false just because someone is tall and black doesn't mean that they are good at basketball, yes if they practice they could be good but all of the people that are in the NBA tall or not so tall have worked very hard to get where they are. Being tall gives you an advantage but just being tall wont make you good, like the article about the Jews that were very good at basketball they probably worked very hard to be good by practicing everyday and did the best they could do every day because if you practice enough at something eventually you will start to get better. The stereotype about Jews having better balance because they are shorter kind of makes senses because the closer something is to the ground the harder it is to push over like bull dogs or most dogs that are shorter they are closer to the ground and they don't fall over as much, but if you are tall and built you wont be as easy to push over either, but if you take two people that are about the same weight and build the shorter person will be harder to push over because they have shorter and more then likely stronger legs. I don't think that height or race makes a difference in how good you are in a sport because the more you practice the better you will become at the sport. Also the Korean player that plays basketball he had to have practiced very hard just like anyone that is good at basketball, because most people don't just wake up one day and have never played a sport before and are all of a sudden good at the sport you have to practice and shoot hoops to improve your odds of making a basket.
