You mean height is not correlated with basketball player's success?

Not sure if you were being sarcastic?

My point was, skill and hours practiced are far better predictors of success than a voodoo attribute like natural talent. In the above case, I tried to use height as an example of a "natural ability" person could be advantaged in.
