has DeAndre Jordan surpassed Dwight Howard athletically?

[nathanjizzle]

did deandre grow a few inches. i swear he looks like a giant compared to dwight

[miggyme1]

Dwight is like 6'9 without shoes.dwight never has been a 7 footer. I guess lakers fans forgot that wen they shipped bynum out. Dwight is a poor mans ben wallace

[Clippersfan86]

DJ has grown maybe half an inch or an inch so he's probably around 6'11 barefoot or close to. At the combine he measured at 6'10 barefoot. Another thing that makes DJ seem taller than he is... is his shoulders sit freakishly high on his body. Also helps that he has the 2nd biggest wingspan and standing reach in the NBA after McGee. The dude has a standing reach of over 9'6". Which obviously means he's just a few inches shy of being able to grab the rim from the ground.

To give you an idea Dwight has a massive wingspan himself and only has a 9'2" standing reach, a whopping 4 inches less.

No, I do it for fun. :cheers:. I guess "suckin their diccs" is what I'm doing when I keep up the knowledge on my team".

Currently yes. If Dwight gets right from the surgery, he might be more athletic again than DJ.

I've said Dwight is the 3rd most athletic centre after Magee + DJ and they are both bigger than him.

When Dwight was fully healthy, he used to completely obliterate McGee and Jordan despite being shorter and having the length disadvantage. That's because he's both more athletic but also much stronger than either player.

DeAndre and Javale are from Wilt's own seed

Also, as low as it is compared to other players, Dwight's basketball IQ is higher than both those boneheads.

Dwight isnt that short, you dummies

McGee is easily the most athletic center (player?) in the league.

Everyone else looks like injured Sabonis.

I always laugh when I see the last pic with Coach K covering Dwight's shoes. Nike owns!

he was giving out real numbers, how's that suckin anything?

[HeyIt'sMe]

He's really long and can jump high, but most athletic? Not even close. Seriously, watch pre-injury Dwight when he played against McGee when he was with the Wiz. Dwight was clearly the more athletic player.

Nothing dumber on ISH than posting misleading pictures. Out of that entire lineup almost all players are slouching besides Dwight. Besides NOBODY is listed as taller than Dwight so if he is the tallest it proves jack shit. All of those players are listed at 6'8 or less outside of Bosh who's listed at 6'10 in shoes. Basically that pic proves nothing :applause: .

Why did you have to switch accounts to say this..

Isn't that another way of saying his head is freakishly tiny? LOL
