KG was listed at 220 around 2002 iirc.

Too bad he has half the IQ of Prince. Double his athleticism though.

Unfortunately Athleticism is becoming the driving force in this league.

And wtf at a craftier, more skilled KG? Youforreal? He's obviously the next MJ. Don't insult Anthony Randolph like that!


Smh, lol.

Donte Greene is 6'11 and Anthony looks a lot taller than him in this pic, though...



Donte Green is NOT 6'11. Guy was 6'8 in college and doesn't appear to have grown much (in game or height). You folks have to stop falling for all these phony heights being tossed around....usually by the players themselves.

Gasol was actually measured at around 6'11. That seems legit.

KG is actually said to be closer to 7'1'' (or 215cm)


Doesn't look anywhere near 7'1 which is why he was listed as 6'11 for most of his career. Can we stop this now?

Thank you. Its a joke. Every offseason it seems as if 20% of the bigs have sprouted an inch or two. Give me a break. Now Javale McGee has supposedly grown an inc too making him 7'1. But wait...he wasn't a legit 7 footer coming into the league in the first place. Sure growth is very possible but I never trust the words of the players or the teams these days. In fact I stopped paying attention ever since the NBA started using heights in sneakers as listed heights. That used to not be the case.

Don't try telling them. NBA fans can be kind of stupid. I'm sorry but that't the case. NBA fans only get excited by guys with hops. It doesn't matter if the players lack maturity, basketball skills, smarts, etc. If the player can jump NBA fans peg the guy as a future Hall of Famer.

Considering the guy tore ligaments off his ankle by landing funny. I fully expect him to be injured with more minutes and added weight. The guy seems to land awkward a lot and every time he lands I have flashbacks of Shaun Livingston.

Kenner, I may not be an admin but I'm pretty sure hexaposting like that is a bit of a "no-no".

Greene grew every year since he got into the league. Right now, he is taller than Jason Thompson.

Thompson is a legitimate 6'11'' (or at the very least, 6'10'' 1/2) and Greene is taller than him. Greene has a good inch or so over Thompson. Greene is no where near 6'8'' now. He is much taller than that.

I think there is legitimacy about Greene being 7 feet tall.

AR did come into the NBA as a 18 year old and at 6'10" its possible he grow 2 inches in 2 seasons.

IIRC, the player's listed heights aren't accurate a lot of the times and many are just good estimates (ie Lebron's weight) since the players themselves give their listed heights to people who publish them. I think only the draft measurements are the only legit accurate source. There's no way guys like Shaq or Lebron can be bothered weighing themselves every season to give their exact measurements to be listed.
