re: Austin Rivers on NFL being easier than the NBA

I've always equated NFL players as simply being too short to play NBA. Pretty much, NBA players and most NFL players are nearly identical in athletic POTENTIAL, NBA players just grew taller.
The only difference between Darrelle Revis and Russell Westbrook is 6 inches. That's obviously a very basic analysis. NBA players are highly skilled in their game and there are many more intangibles (like muscle memory, hand/eye coordination, etc...) that make them better at basketball than just your basic great physical athlete, but many NFL players possess those same intangibles.
