Jaylen Brown same height as Devin Booker? Pictorial evidence.

Jaylen Brown 6'7" tall? I think not.

Devin Booker came in at 6'4.5" without shoes during his NBA combine. LOOK BELOW. Jaylen, at most, is only half an inch taller. LOOK AT THE EARS AND LOOK AT HIS FOREHEAD IN RELATION TO THE TOP OF DEVIN'S HEAD.

Why does this bother me. Don't know. Anal like that.

Jaylen Brown is clearly leaning forward in that picture.

I'm beginning to think people just overestimate how much an inch is. If a guy is 2 inches taller than another guy, it's just not going to jump out at you like that. Hair and shoes and posture and perspective and all that inject more than enough error to make these kinds of pictures useless.

And Devin is up on his tippy toes, "Thanks for letting me score all those points".

Jaylen has a 7'0" wingspan which is awesome.

If you don't lean forward while hugging a dude, you are gonna have a wiener touching incident. You know this.

So, add 2 inches. To Jaylen's height, that is.

Alright, he was officially measured at 6' 5.25" without shoes. Just fine for a SF/SG. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2639745-nba-combine-results-2016-thursday-measurements-highlights-and-top-prospects

Yep. I tell people all the time that basketball shoes give basketball players another solid 1.5-2 inches and they always look at me like I'm crazy.

On a side note, can we stop calling Isaiah 5'7 and 5'8?? Dude measured out as a legit 5'9 without shoes at the combine which is a solid 5'11 in NBA circles.

The guy in the back is smaller than Booker's upper arm and the suit next to him is like half that guys size. Meanwhile, Jaylen's head is bigger than the backboard.

When I hold out my arm and close one eye, I can squish out the sun with my fingertips.

And I'm not wearing shoes, in case you're wondering.

Devin Booker could easily have grown 2-3 inches since the combine. Also you are not taking perspective into account.

Speaking of IT, I have a theory that people who like him a little too much are all under 5'10" or so.

Tell me I'm lying lol.

ddb · Post #16 » by **ddb** » Tue Apr 11, 2017 4:39 am

Jaylen is 6'7 and Booker is 6'6. Which means Jaylen is barely 6'6 and Book is barely 6'5. Your point.

Tell him to spend the summer in Philly - they have something in the water there - Simmons and Embid both grew a couple of inches hanging out there LOL.

You're wrong.

Thomas isn't liked enough of this board. The guy is doing stuff that hasn't been done in the NBA in 30-60 years.

Jaylen measured 6'5.25" at NBA combine without shoes, which is 0.75 inches more than Devin. They both have probably grown a little since then. Anyways who cares.
