" While everyone readily accepts that evolution has turned out blacks with a genetic proclivity to contract sickle cell and Jews of European heritage who are 100 times more likely than other populations to be afflicted with the degenerative mental disease Tay-Sachs, it is widely perceived as racist to suggest that blacks of West African ancestry have evolved into the world's best sprinters, Asians among the best divers, East Africans the premier distance runners, and whites the top weightlifters.
Yet the science is quite clear and the empirical evidence consistent and overwhelming. A look at the ancestry (or home country) of runners holding the top 100 times in eight distances, from the 100 meters to the marathon, makes it clear that African domination is deep as well as broad:
Blacks who trace their ancestry to West Africa, including African Americans, hold more than 95 percent of the top times in sprinting;
Whites are virtually absent from the top ranks of sprinting; though whites have traditionally done well in the longer endurance races, particularly the marathon, their ranks have thinned in recent years;
Athletes from one country, Kenya, make up more than one-third of top times in middle and long distance races; including top performances by other East Africans (most from Ethiopia), that domination swells to almost 50 percent.
North Africans do well at middle distances;
Mexicans (Native Americans), are strongest at the longest races, 10,000 meters and the marathon;
East Asians are competitive only at the event requiring the most endurance, the marathon, and at ultra-marathons."
If you want to know why this is true. You can read the part "about how muscles work". This is a simple text and easy to understand.

Americans have a problem to understand that YES, white and black people have
equal rights but their biology
is not 100% the same.
I believe they don't learn this kind of things at school, the same way they don't learn about evolution, that all religions are fairy tails etc
I am sorry if this upsets people but facts are above feelings.
p.s. I know i am off the topic but my point was Bjelica isn't special, he is not that good and we should focus our attention to better players. When i said the obvious that white players are less athletic than black i was provoked and i had to answer.
