USA today reporting LeBron grew?

well, if thats true..that'll be strange. He'd almost be too tall to the a SG, and I think that might make his game not as dominating as it could be.

Anyway, it does make one think that Telfair could still grow some...

I've always thought that LeBron was a SF but now it looks like he might become a PF. Anyways, I think the bigger and stronger LeBron becomes, the better basketball player he can become, the sky is the limit for him.

Yea... taller will not make him less dominating. lol!! was Magic too tall??

QRICH

Can anyone post the team pic of the USA team?

maybe he'll grow another couple inches and be an even 7'

Now that would be scary!

Look at the source.

In most of my media guides I was listed at 6'7" 280 ... when I was closer to 6'6" 260.

Media guides are meant to "wow" you.

I wouldn't put much stock into 2" growth.

Play.

Not even close to better.

MJ - in his first year - shredded everything that LeBron thought of doing.

LeBron will be a stud... eventually a HOFer.... but better than the best player to ever play? Not likely.

Play.

"not as dominating as it could be."??? Are you serious? I suppose we can hope that Telfair grows a little more....the reports that I've read state that he's nowhere near 6-feet tall. Maybe 5-10.

Dan

yah, Magic was a PG tho. IF Lebron is moved to PF was my point. He's good as a SG, because he's able to play that position. He wouldn't be able to play the PF position as good as he plays the SG.

I don't care what kind of "body" he has.

absolute nonsense. I cannot fathom why individuals think that none before Michael were better and why none after him wont be better. Its called "time and Evolution". Personally I dont even think hes the best player to play ever. So NO its not inconceivable that Lebron COULD "potentially" be better than Michael

yes, I am serious. Most "dominant" players, are guards or centres. Yah, you have Duncan and KG...but what about Kobe, McGrady, Carter..Jordan, Drexler, Nique, Jerry West, Baylor..

Him being 6'10" (if thats even true), and moving to the PF position (as people have suggested is what he could do) isn't as good as him being a 6'8" SG.

He probably doesn't have post moves to the degree PF's now do.

Also, I doubt that he's actually grown the 2 inches, because he was already the size of a man by the time he was 18-19, and it seems that people who already have a full sized body, don't keep growing. They have some disporportion in their body. Remember Jermaine O'neal when he came out? Or KG? Skinny as a rale.

Same with Kobe.
what reports have you read? The ones that actually measure him and post his numbers? Or the ones where guys go "well, I'm 6'4" and I can see the top of his head, so he must be 5'10"? "

Thus the 'maybe' in my statement

It's quite easy to explain, really. Like I said so uncerimoniously in the Lance Armstrong thread, HGH ought to be of great interest to basketball players looking to grow a couple extra inches. 2" is just about right, and there are lots of extra benefits to boot.
