The average 30 year old does not have a "decent jump shot." The average 30 year old in this country has the beginnings of a beer belly, can do maybe 20 pushups, can hit about 30% of free throws, and would practically collapse if he had to play full-court basketball for more than 5 minutes. Maybe you're thinking of slightly above average in the group of 30 year olds who regularly play basketball.

Fine. But the average 30 year could in this country could get in shape in a month, and could develop a decent jump shot in about the same amount of time. Which he would, if he were suddenly 8'3.
