Are you kidding me? We are talking about NBA players. And you said you are 5'10? So you would be listed at 5'10. WTH type of question is that.

Umm well...some people say they're shorter or taller so teams will look at them more often, or if they don't want to play a certain position.

 

[P33r~]

I'm not sure if 'Big' Ben is even 6'7. When the Pistons play the lakers, you see Ben is SLIGHTLY taller than Kobe, and Kobe is only 6'5 without shoes. It's pretty amazing that he does the things he does at that height.

 

[Dee-Zy]

how the hell can you be 2" taller in shoes when others are just half and inch taller?

Chan, Ales 7' 0'' 7' 2''

 

[socco]

From what I hear the measurements for the pre-draft camp and such are not accurate at all.


As many have said KG is 7'1" and not 6'11" (i still remember therealdeal arguing that he was 6'9"), and also Rashad McCants is 6'1" or 6'2", not the 6'4" he's listed at.

Did anyone notice how much LeBron and 'Melo weigh? It's evident in LeBron, but I'd never thought 'Melo was that big compared to Bosh, even coming in. Still LeBron's bulk and height might contribute to his bulldozer style.

 

[The_Legend_23]

Kevin Garnett : Close to 7'1"
Allen Iverson : 5'10"
Ben Wallace : 6'7"
Hakeem Olajuwon: 6'10
Charles Barkley : 6'4 1/2
Magic Johnson :6'7"
Emeka Okafur: 6'8 1/2
Dwyane Wade : 6'3"

 

[zebraman2]

The measurements just stated Wade is 6'3.75 bare footed and 6'4.75 with shoes ths 6'5 pretty much, thus ending speculation he is undersized SG. Has anyone ever seen Wade have trouble with any bigger guard, coz he's the one causing the trouble for them haha

Ben Wallace does have very long arms though....

Wade is listed at 6'4 but I heard he was 6'2-6'3.

You heard incorrectly. Dwade is 6'3 3/4" without shoes, and an inch taller with them. He should really be listed at 6'5".

On a somewhat unrelated note, I absolutely can't stand it when nba.com, or other basketball websites fail to update player profiles. A striking example is LBJ, who is listed at 6'8" and 240. The problem is that he was that big as a high school senior. Right now he's about 6'9" 255. Other players that come to mind are Dwyane Wade, who's clearly stronger then the 212 lbs he's listed at. Oh well . . .

 

[1 Penny]

Tracy McGrady and Amare Stoudamire are the same height... 6'9 and a bit.

Wade 6'2? Nah.. Atleast 6'3. He is listed at 6'5, but makes you even more shock how amazing his hops is considering he dunks on people (in-game) a lot of times.

 

[Seuss]

Wade's listed as 6'4.

I'm pretty sure that the listed heights are accurate.
