  1. Honestly, I feel like if he's tough enough to go against these taller people then they should give him a chance. He could be a point guard or something I guess. I still feel like he deserves a chance His size doesn't really doesn't matter too much.

  2. The NBA players should give the street ballz how to play by the rule go full court and have a referees to tell if that was a foul are a travel and they need to follow all the rule like the nba player do.

  3. I think the NBA should give Jahmani Swanson a chance. He has a lot of potential and he shows it. He is able to make three shoot from anywhere and layup. He also is able to setup plays which could make him a great point guard or a good shooting guard.

  5. I think that he is a good player overall. The NBA should give him a chance. They shouldn't turn him down because of his height if he is a quality player.

  6. The NBA should consider his application. despite knowing his height.

  7. Describing the size of the player, any size can be a great and accomplished NBA player. Just because of possibly not being able to dunk doesn't mean its a bad component to the team for which that gains him if they accept him on the team.Skill level would have to be extreme because what teams look for is tall and good but lacking in one, than must improve in another. Its able to be accomplished through hope and encouragement which helps him benefit and the team for which gains another. Many opinions include of feeling of discomfort of someone being shorter than needed but if the skill set is better than the big named players than its more likely to achieve such a goal.

  8. I feel like he could make it in the NBA it would be nice to see a new face to NBA. He shouldn't let his height bring him down. The transition might be rough since he plays street ball.

  9. NBA should give this street baller a chance. Just because he's small doesn't mean he can't play what he love. Honestly if he's that good he should be apart of any basketball team even if it isn't NBA.

  10. I don't think his size should matter that much. If he says he's tough enough to be in the NBA, I say they should give him a try. He can be a point guard since he would be the shortest. I think he can make it.

    ReplyDelete
  11. The NBA should not give him a try because he small and and it would be hard for him to shoot and drive on a defender.However height matter because he really small and point guard are like 6'0 - 6'5.so i'm telling you it not working.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Street Baller who is 4'5 is a absolute pro. The NBA should consider him even if he is shorter than the average basketball player. He has so much potential, that he knows his height cant stop nothing.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I think the NBA should give this guy a try because because there are other short players that are playing or have played and he seems like he would be good.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I think he should be able to at least try out and if a team likes him, then he's in, if no teams like him, then better luck next time.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Jahmani Swanson, aka Mani Love, is a 4'5" street baller from Harlem, New York. no the NBA should not give him a changes he is 4'5.he has the skill to play not the high.he should keep playing street ball.

    ReplyDelete
  16. His size does not really matter its more just how well he plays. Hes got great skills and could do really well in the NBA. Of course he may face problems with his size but he could always use it for his advantage.

    ReplyDelete
  17. The NBA shouldn't give him a try just because he is not at least 5'6". He is not a bad player but he would get dominated and probably wouldn't even score against other NBA players. He can still be a good street baller. I don't think he is not tall enough to play in the NBA.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I think the NBA should give him the chance to play basketball. The video showed him going up against other tall people, why would a NBA basketball game be any different?

    ReplyDelete
  19. I think the NBA should give him a try he's actually really good just because he doesn't have the height of the average player doesn't mean he's not as good.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I think the NBA she give him a try but it will be funny. More people will come to more of there games to see this little short man play. Although he is nice at basketball. Some of the NBA players even said they don't won't none of him.

    ReplyDelete
  21. The guys good and all but he just wouldnt make it in a league full of 7 footers . He is too small and would get his shot beat alot ! His game cant be too versatile if everyone against him is almost a giant compared to him

    ReplyDelete
  22. the NBA should give him a chance... He is a great player regardless of height

    ReplyDelete
  23. No, I believe that he will be small and he will be looked down on by other players. I feel like the coach will keep him on the bench.

    1. he still gone get money tho even if he on the bench

  24. I think should because the NBA cares about money and many people would pay to see this. This would also bring in a new kind of fan base for the NBA.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I think that the NBA should give him a chance to prove himself. if he's come this far in his basketball career than I think he should be given a chance.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Honestly I think the NBA should give him a try. I feel like there is at least one team that he could benefit. Although he isn't the average size of any regular professional basketball player, they shouldn't discriminate against him because he has the talent of one and could be beneficial to a team. His height may be looked at by others as a disability but it could actually be an advantage. With his height he could easily get around the bigger players and take the basketball all the way to the goal and pass it to another player who could dunk it. I think he has potential if they overlook his size and don't discriminate. Although it might be a challenge with acceptance, I think he is tough enough to play and be successful.

  27. i mean the only thing that can hurt him is his height. he is really a good player and he looks like he could be on a nba team. the only thing in a basketball game that would worry me is rebounding, blocking, and avoiding getting block. he might be able to shoot and dribble but there is a lot more to it than that. when i was watching his video all i saw where mostly him on offense and no defensive.

    ReplyDelete
  28. i believe him when he was saying he is better than some of the players in the nba why i say that is because he is that small and playing players with height,strength and speed.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I mean yes, why not? he fye for his size. He gone probably be very know and famous for his height. But the fact that he's a midget, the nba might not give him a try.

  32. Im actually uninterested so I care not if he 'gets a try'

  33. In my opinion, I believe NBA should let Jahmani Swanson plays. If a a short person plays in the NBA then maybe people around the world wont bully people or make fun of them. Plus kids might have inspiration to be happy about themselves and not try suicidal or cause any deaths. I watched a video of him winning and how his skills are plus its not about the person body and shapes but the person skills.

  34. Jahmani Swanson, aka Mani Love, is a 4'5" street baller from Harlem, New York.

    Swanson never let his height stop him from playing basketball, and he now travels the world playing hoops with the Court Kingz.

  35. I feel that the NBA should give him a chance. That's how the best players have come to be. If he thinks he can play in the NBA, then he needs a chance to prove himself.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I think they should give him a try. He seem like a really good basketball player even though he short that don't matter. He got really good skills and thats all that matters.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I think the NBA should treat him like any other player and not seem him any differently because of his height. The video clearly showcased his skills up against other players who were much taller than him.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I think he will be able to go against the players in the NBA. He might be short, but he has one of the best handles I have ever seen. You shouldn't judge someone by their height. It is wrong that you shouldn't let this guy tryout because he is short. He has amazing athleticism, handles, and a pretty good jump shot.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I think the NBA should let him play no matter his height because he has talent. Kids might have inspiration to be happy about themselves and not try suicidal or cause any deaths.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I think the NBA should give him a chance. I mean yes why not, he's short but hey its always worth a try. That chance could change his life. That one change could be for him to prove himself. i also, think that his height could take him a lot of places, maybe even the NBA if they give him a try. To me there's nothing wrong with midgets they just are small. But, they might knock him because of the height. Don't knock it unless you try it.

    ReplyDelete
  41. i feel that they should give him a chance to play in the NBA. because his height doesn't really matter if hes better then you.

    ReplyDelete
  42. The NBA shouldn't give him a try just because he is not at least 5'6". He is not a bad player but he would get dominated and probably wouldn't even score against other NBA players. He can still be a good street baller. I don't think he is not tall enough to play in the NBA.

    ReplyDelete
  43. I think the NBA should give him a chance. In all honesty, they'd make profits from him, and many other younger basketball players would look up to him because of his size. Some people would probably buy tickets to the games just to see him play.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I feel that they should give him a try, as he could hold his own with some players. His best position would be suitable for a point guard.

    ReplyDelete
  45. i feel like the NBA should give him a chance. Size does not matter when it comes to talent. Talent comes in all shapes and sizes. He has potential so they should give him a chance.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I feel like they should he would definitely be the one to watch. He would give the NBA a lot more views saying since no one really watches it because it's no longer exciting. He would bring a lot of excitement and energy to the game, it would be very intriguing to watch him go against some of the NBA players.

    ReplyDelete
  47. I think that he deserves being in the NBA but I understand that the height is something very important for the team. If they consider giving Jahmani Swanson a chance, it would be unfair for other basketball players with the same height that had been making a lot of effort during all this time for being part of the NBA.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Yes everyone deserves a chance if they are giving their all

    ReplyDelete
  49. I think the NBA should give him a try. He clearly has the skill and potential to be great in the NBA. I think everybody should have an equal chance for to try out for the league. If he doesn't make it, then he was never really good enough to play in the league.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I think that the NBA should give him a chance. Body size or shape does not matter. That little man was making shots all over people. The NBA should give him a chance. He would have alot of pulbicity because everybody would be talking about him

    ReplyDelete
  51. I think even tho he is small, he should have a chance to show everyone what he can do and on that way sport clubs are getting interested in him, but also Basketball is a sport where it is better to be tall, so I don't think that any club will take him. But he would earn a chance to prove what he can do!

    ReplyDelete
  52. I think that he should have an chance your not to small to do anything. I think he should have an chance to compete with real stars. I think he will be good and famous one day. I think he is an good player even if they dont give him an try.

  53. He is a really good basketball player.In the future he should be in the NBA.

    ReplyDelete
  54. i think they should put this man in the NBA. he is very good basketball player. even though hes very small he still can play good just as the other players

  56. I believe if he meets the true requirements to make an NBA team disregarding the height, he should be given the chance. People that suffer from dwarfism or any other height disability are often underestimated on what they're capable of. This man obviously has overcame that stereotype about people who suffer dwarfism.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Yes, i feel like the NBA should give him a chance. They should give him a chance because he is very skillful, he may not score alot of points because he is so short but he will spread out the defense and get alot of assist.

    ReplyDelete
  58. The NBA could give him a chance but he is going to get stepped on.

  59. The NBA should give the man a chance. Just because someone is different doesnt mean they cant do what others can.

  68. he is good be he isnt nba ready. not because of his height but he a street baller

  69. The NBA should give him a chance because he got skills. Just because he is a street baller or is different than most professional athletes doesn't mean he doesn't have any potential.

  70. Of course i feel like even if he wasnt 5in taller then he still would be the fyest player in the game BETTER THAN STEPHEN CURRY

    ReplyDelete
  71. i would give him a shot everybody should have opportainlys

    ReplyDelete
  72. no he should not be given a chance this man is butt. he worse than me and i butt. this is man is beyond butt his jump shot ugly. his haircut ugly look like he got lent in his hair. he said one day that he gone dunk one day boy you aint dunking nothing. and anybody that say that he should be given a chance is po po too. talking about he dunking he need to dunk some dunking donuts so he can get taller.

  73. they accept him on the team.Skill level would have to be extreme because what teams look for is tall and good but lacking in one, than must improve in another. Its able to be accomplished through hope and encouragement which helps him benefit and the team for which gains another. Many opinions include of feeling of discomfort of someone being shorter than needed but if the skill set is better than the big named players than its more likely to achieve such a goal.

  74. I think the Nba should give him a chance I believe the only reason they wouldn't is because of his height which shouldn't matter because in the video clips they showed he was balling over dudes way taller than him but I believe they should give him a chance

    ReplyDelete
  75. Yeah, definitely give the guy a chance. He is amazing. Let them give him a chance, I'm wiling to bet he'd be great.

    ReplyDelete
  76. to be honest he looks better then curry , hes only 4'5 and hes hitting 3s like it noting. the only thing he has to worry about is his shot getting swatted but other then that he looks like he can start a legacy with his height and inspired others.

  83. Man I been waiting for this article like since I dont know I seen this dude play before on Ballislife and he might have what it takes to be in the NBA but considering his size and the players around him he might seriously get hurt because of how tall the other players are and how argressive and I already know for a fact this dude is gonna get blocked often but yeah I think he good enough.

  84. I think the NBA should give Jahmani Swanson a chance. He got mad skills and he shows it. He is able to make three shoot from anywhere and layup. He also is able to setup plays which could make him a great point guard or a good shooting guard.I also feel like the NBA shouldn't pick their players based off of their size if they good enough and meet the requirements why should their height matter ?

    ReplyDelete
  85. LMFAO! In my opinion I think he should save himself the embarrassment. He look like he can play but as soon as he shoot the ball one of those big guys are going to steal the ball. As soon as it leaves his hands. On the other hand he could try to play. The NBA can sign him for a year and see how that goes.

    ReplyDelete
  86. i think its incredible that a man that small is better at basket ball than the average man

  87. I think the NBA should let him play because his skills are interesting. Maybe he could be on the harlem globetrotters.

  88. Yeah they should give him a try if he believes he can even though he is little he is good.
