6'10" with a short wingspan isn't the same as Dwight with a 7'6" wingspan.

Re: Has Paolo reached 7 foot tall?
He is tall and after other 2-3 off-seasons,he will be even bigger.
we will play him as a wing,because we have this fetish" we are so big,so long,so tall!!"then he will go to a team who understands how to use players,will play center and will be great.
comparisions with carmelo or tatum are really silly,he is(already) so suited to destroy opponent front court players than that almost hurts.

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

Given his insane skill & agility package - that would be a tremendous waste. I know everyone's excited about AG's reclamation story, but...Paolo is NOT AG.

Re: Has Paolo reached 7 foot tall?
There are a lot of PICs on Duke Basketball where Paolo and M.Williams were side by side and the difference was probably only an inch.
Now if you believe M.Williams is 7.025 BAREFOOT then yeah, you have to believe Paolo is around 6'10 barefoot as well.

This was talked about to death after the draft, and this clear, centred image is the proof Banchero is at least 6'10"
Mosely is 6'6". Banchero is WAY taller. Note: Weltman is himself quite tall and looks like a midget next to Banchero.
p.s. Caleb Houstan is clearly a legit 6'8". Much taller than coach.
