Paul George grew taller during this summer 

Post#1 » by moximus » Wed Dec 7, 2011 5:26 am

He is now a legit 6' 10'' super athletic freak who plays tenacious D, his ceiling got higher just now?

Word out of Indiana is that Paul George actually grew an inch over the summer. Now stands at 6'10" @Pacers

Is Jimmer the next Nash? What a disrespectful comparison. AR doesn't deserve that.

Paul George is good, but with Lakers05's help, he can be the best.

Yea, let's wait until he accomplishes what AR has before jumping to any conclusions.

Paul George was playing SG last season dude ... nothing alike.

I'd say he's like Peja Stojacavic but with worse shooting and better defense.

So he's like Peja, but then he isn't like Peja? Gotcha.

Wow if true, he'll definitely be one of the more intriguing sophomore's to keep an eye on over the next season.

Flip Saunders also said that Wall has grown an inch over the last 6 months which would mean he's at about 6'5. Scary thought.

Seriously? A guy reportedly growing an inch (more likely a quarter or half inch) makes him THAT much more intriguing?

Ugh...where you getting that from in my post? I think he's an intriguing prospect regardless of his alleged growth spurt.

It may not seem like it but growing an inch makes a big difference in the NBA.

Going to be interesting to see how he does for the upcoming season. I really like him as a player. The growth spurt will only help him.

You said if true. If it's not true then he won't be an intriguing prospect by your original post.

Are you stupid or what ? How could you question Magic Randolph's epicness ?

He is the GOAT summer league player.
