Did he say "250+" or "260+?"

Its hard to differentiate, they sound similar. I thought I heard 250.

I don't think it matters whether he is 6'8 250+ or 6'9 270+ to do what he does at either of those measurements is amazing:bowdown:

6'9 258 is my guess but wouldnt be surprised if he lied about his weight he may be heavier

Lebron was 245 at the 2003 pre-draft camp. There's no way he's not atleast 260 now. 6'8" sounds more accurate than 6'9" though.

This was Lebron as a rookie.

There's no way he hasn't gained 15 pounds since then.

PPL who's height and weight are questionable, tend to underplay their heights and weight when somebody ask, just so they don't start a big conversation. Say there i person who is 6'4, he could easily say he is 6'2 and get away with it.

Not necessarily. It is all about dominate and recessive genes. MJ's dad was small and weak as hell. Yet he produced a 6'6 athletic freak. Kobe's dad was a scrub player look how Kobe turned out.

Yeah, about 6'8 means he's probably 6'7.5" barefoot, but I wouldn't be surprised at 6'8." My guess would be 260 if he was really 245 at pre-draft, which doesn't seem unreasonable.

Yeah back in 2003 he was officially measured 6'7 1/4" and 245 pounds. I don't know if he's grown, but I'd bet anything he's gained atleast 15 pounds.

Here's what LeBron said to Magic

"I'm about 6'3 210"


So he's 6'3 !?!

210 ?!?!?


He's a BEAST


"Hey LeBron, do you take any PED's"
"No."

See? He doesn't even take PED's, he said it, loud and clear!

Oh man he's the best

Long... Short... Doesn't really matter to me. As long as the end result is either your death or your inability to use the Internet, I will be happy.

I sort of expected your stay on ISH to be much shorter. Your LeBron obsessiveness is more severe than I had originally estimated. You are a Poseidon-level troll, which is saying something.

i remember when he first came in the league as a rookie, i was already claiming that he was swole and had a nice build... now he looks skinny in that picture :oldlol:

you just proved yourself that he's probably 6'9" since NBA players are measured in their sneaks.

More like 7'2, 400...

Nobody's pulling the wool over my eyes, nice try, LeBron.

As you can see, LeBron clearly towers over this 6'6 WNBA center. And she's 250 her damn self, so he's easily outweighing her by 150 pounds or so.

Case closed here. LeBron James - 7 foot 2, 400 pounds.

Can anyone say GOAT?

Not really, I'm pretty much the same height barefoot as i am in shoes. Guess it all depends how big the shoes you wear are.

Yea but Kobe's dad was a NBA player and Kobe's moms brother was also a NBA player something alot of Kobephiles don't even know... :rockon: Kobe hit the genetic lottery as well, his father and his mother both had NBA genetics in their family..

The way he said it was like he was joking around knowing he was well over 250 but wanted to keep people guessing.

He was laughing and smiling when he said something like "we'll just say 250+"

It could have been scary, with 17-year-old Anthony Erskine from Mount Vernon, N.Y., coming right up to James to talk to him on the bench after James had departed for good with 23 seconds left.

"It was a great feeling. You get a fan to come down there to express the way he feels about you ... told me I was his favorite player, that never happens," James said. "I respect him, I respect his pride and for him to come out there and tell me something like that face to face, it's like the (most) unbelievable thing that ever happened to me."

Erksine said he's been a fan since James was a senior in high school, in 2002.

"I never got a chance to see him in person, and that's my favorite player. I want to be just like him. I never got a chance to meet him. So I finally got a chance to meet him in person," Erskine said.

"I never thought I would get a chance to see him again, so I figured 'Why not?' "

James said he was never afraid when he saw Erskine coming.

"I'm 6-9 and 260," James said. "I'm all right."

That was last year when he dropped 50 on the Knicks.

Just compare how he is now compared to his rookie season :
