Awesome seeing Cade recognize the Daly family for giving the blessing to wear that #2.

Gores loves to talk

Cade looked a little shorter than Livers when they stood up with the jerseys?

Might be a shoes thing? But Livers measured 6'5.75" at the combine this year. So Cade can't be taller than that?

Hayes and Cade will be starting together for sure. Casey eluded to it.

Might just be something weird with how they were standing. Cade measured at 6'5" without shoes 4 years ago. Seems unlikely he hasn't grown since then.

Adam Silver is apparently 6'3"....Cade looked about 3" taller. Reminds me of when Ben Wallace was officially listed at 6'9" but was only 6'5"

NBA heights are officially doctor certified now, so we'll find out with the official roster

His Google height is 6'7.

Looking at the Cade and Adam Silver handshake vs the Jalen Green and Silver handshake does seem to show Cade is taller than Green at least...

The NBA used to measure with shoes on. I always thought that was ridiculous, and kind of a WWE thing to do.

I can do without hearing Gores ramble on.

Cade got permission from Mrs. Daly to wear #2.

Since when do coaches have a number? I know Chuck was given #2 for the rafters but let's get real.

Was hoping to hear the media ask questions to garza, livers, and balsa that zoom's no good.

Yeah agree. Livers seemed to be the most animated and happy to be there. Too bad they **** up with the Zoom session. I would have liked to hear a question to Livers about John Beilein being on the Pistons staff.

This presser was awful. All it was was a coked up Gores rambling on for 30 minutes.

They measure both. I don't think it really matters, as long as everyone is measured the same way. In this case, basically all numbers you see listed are with shoes. Livers measured at 6' 7.25". To me it looked like Cade was a little shorter than him. I'd guess he's more like 6'6" in shoes. Probably got a "favorable" measurement from OSU (top of the hair) since he was basically doing them a huge favor in going there.

I assume the Pistons have measured them all out and factored everything in.

I have this argument every year. YES, it matters. Normal people are measured in bare feet. You don't see hockey players measured with their damn skates on. NFL players are measured in bare feet, and NOT with their spikes on...etc The NBA only does this to make the freaky genetically gifted athletes even freakier. The NBA definitely promotes the shoes on height for a reason.

Eh, I don't think it matters. They don't play barefoot, and wingspan is more of a factor than if they have long necks or not.

And soles of shoes are varying thickness.
