Myths and liest unfold. "He is so fast and agile for big" because he isn't that big :lol:

Barnes , listed as 6'8 is actualyl 6'6... Hield used to be 6'5, now he is 6'3 :lol:

Deaaron Fox is only player who kept orginal height from Kings and if i'm not mistaking, so far Dedmon is only 7 footer :rofl:

No good news for his future health. But crazy how good of a athlete he is at this height.

Bagley looked taller because of his hair ...

I have friend who is legit 6'9- 280, now i know why i watched so much basketball and he looked that much bigger than most players, becaues he is :lol:

Zingis is crazy tall

Bamba was at the combine. He is 6' 11.25
I think Embiid is easy 7'0 barefoot.

How much is your buddy eating every day, just curious :lol:

How much is he eating? All? :lol:

I saw on reddit that one person who went to school with Lonzo posted that he is 6'2,and Lozo is at most 6'3.

I really like that this finally happend. It's simple false advertising.

I'm 6'2 and some ( 191 cm) without shoes, if i had talent to be in nba i would probably be listed as 6'4- 6'5 and that's just ridiculous. I also have 2 friends who are legit 6'5 so they would be what? Lebron-ish 6'8?

+1 inch for a shoes
+2 inches for ego

Yesterday i saw in gym guy who played summerleague for Croatia this summer , guy was listed as 6'6 ( Roko Bađim). That MFs is literally copy past same height as me. 4 freakin inches added? gtfo

On media day pic's, Lonzo looks much smaller than Zion. Yea i think 6'4 at best.

Or 6'10 Mourning, who is probably Aaron Gordon height in reality :lol:

Read on Twitter

It's understandable losing an inch or so without shoes, but some of these players are literally losing 3 plus inches :lol:

I feel like Ive been reading Joel was 7-3 and Simmons was a legit 7 footer for years now. I think Bamba measures out closer to 6'10.

If they do the combine measurements right, Bamba is 6'11'25. Joel looks right, so with shoes 7-1 / 7-2
Simmons is taller than i thought. He is 6'11 with shoes. Crazy that he can legit play PG over many parts of the game & even defends them really good most of the time.
Horford is almost a inch taller too, than his NBA combine height.

Adam Silver is listed at 6'3" but is widely speculated to be "a bit taller".

So let's say he is 6'4": Porziņģis is more than a head taller! That's like 7'2" legit.

This exagerrated height thing has been going on for a while. John Starks for the longest time was listed at 6'5 but you could tell he was like 6'2 or 6'3.

Crazy what's happening right now with the Rockets
They said they are not considering firing morey, but just by saying that for me it's insane just to even think about it

Hypocrits everywhere
It's all about fuc**** money . Disgusting.

It's about hong kong stuff? :lol:

What a hell is going on in USA, you have military telling people not kill each other after watching joker, you have people being fired over tweet, people being put in jail for something they allegedly did 30 years ago with no evidence, you have outrage society that hates men ,especially white male and i saw there are now cinemas that ban males in general :lol:

Far left wing is mix of anarchy supporters who also happend to be really close with their ideology to totalitarian regime :crazy:

MagicFrenchie · Post #36 » by **MagicFrenchie** » Mon Oct 7, 2019 7:59 am

Yes pepe totally agree
On one side the NBA is claiming to work toward freedom of speech and thought , but on the other they are laying down to avoid chinese threats about a fu**** tweet that would hurt NBA incomes.

Great image for the Association.

NBA is about their bottom line. It's hypocritical as **** but it's ultimately not a surprise that they want to tread lightly even in the face of Hong Kong's rights. The fact is that China is a huge NBA market and the NBA benefits from their sales and interest. Disappointing? Yes. Surprising? No.

And pepe, careful with that discussion since it's kind of politically charged, there's the Current Affairs forum for a reason. But I'm just going to say that "white males being criticized/hated" is a strange comment, and maybe the least of anybody's worries for a country with a lot of current issues. Considering we also are a country that has been maybe been the most prosperous economically in the history of the world for white males, and knowing the history of the U.S. with Native genocide & slavery until the 1860s, this seems very tame in comparison.

And now a chinese rocket fan guy has been arrested for for posting angry words in response to China's decision to ban broadcasts of all Rockets games.

what a time to be alive

I feel bad for the Chinese fans that sympathize with HK and don't care about all of this mess.

However, the Rockets themselves sort of got themselves into this mess by aligning with another country altogether since Yao Ming was so influential and important to their franchise. It's beneficial when it sells tickets and gives exposure to your team on a global scale, it's kind of bad when the country is killing Muslim Uighurs and putting their foot down on Hong Kong. If Hammond had made that comment, it wouldn't have gotten this out of control... but the Rockets, yeah, a big deal.

Really not enjoying the Daryl Morey news this morning. If he loses his job it will really taint my enjoyment of this league.

Just goes to show that money is more important to those in charge than people's basic human rights.
