Porzingis was measured 7'1.25" without shoes + 7'6" wingspan

[Human Error]

According to Chad Ford, Porzingis was measured at 7'1.25" without shoes with 7'6" wingspan. Crazy numbers that will boost his draft stock.

[Rocketswin2013]

That's ****ing long if true. Holy shit.

I find that hard to believe. He can't be THAT tall.

[imdaman99]

Heard he's a project anyway. And I seriously doubt he will be Dirk part 2.

[JerrySeinfeld]

So?

Jahlil Okafor is 6'11, 270, has a 7'6 wingspan, just averaged 17 PPG on 66% winning the championship.

[JimmyMcAdocious]

I might bite if he didn't have narrow shoulders. At least when Unibrow came into the league (another skinny guy), he pretty clearly had wide shoulders. This dude doesn't look like he can fill out at all. He better be the next Dirk with that body.

[outbreak]

He's going to be a good player and he's going to rise in the draft. I have a feeling from a few recent rumours put together that teams aren't that high on Okafor and his stock could drop, at the end of the day he doesn't defend or rebound well and he isn't as versatile as a Porzingis. The real top 3 could be KAT, Russell, Porzingis. At the end of the day Okafor and Porzingis both have skills that they can use right away but both have big holes in their games.

He also weighed in at 230 pounds, which is at least 10 more pounds than people expected. I heard he was 7'1" w/o shoes a few weeks ago, but the wingspan is even bigger than I thought. Not sure how much more muscle he can put on, but he's a pretty flippin big body.

I heard he's been putting on 1kg a week since starting to apply himself to working out while keeping his body fat down. I imagine he'll plateau though but with his size, foot speed and ball skills does he really need to have a body builder physique to be effective?

If he's legit 230 pounds already, putting on 10 (ideally 15) more would help him out with rebounding and playing through more contact.

For example, Dario Saric is up to 240 now or something like that and he's 6'10" with a 6'10" wingspan. With Porzingis' shot, wingspan, height, and mobility, just bulking up some will help, assuming he's 230. Wiry strong is effective for some guys, and Kristaps might be the next guy it works for.

I'll admit, I wasn't the biggest fan either, but after seeing his workout, and now knowing his stats, I'm a huge fan and believer.

Dude moves around like KG in his workout. So quick and nimble given his size. A little lightweight obviously, but he can make it work to his advantage. Would be good to see him get to at least 250lbs so he can muscle his way in there.

Durant ain't exactly the heaviest guy, but he uses his leverage well and is one of the strongest guys at his position. Hopefully he can do the same with his slightly more nimble and thinner frame.

He's soft and can't exactly create his own shot even at the minor league level. Sure, he has an outside stroke and impressive motor skills to comes with his size . When push comes to shove, you better hope he's not a typical Euro that shy away from contacts.:oldlol:

Let's not get carried away. KG is probably the most fluid, coordinated and athletic 4 ever. Guy moved like a guy about 6'5". Porz can move for a 7 footer but nothing that resembles KG.

I watched some of his Euro highlights and most of it is him spotting up and shooting or altering shots down low. He is very thin. If he gets pushed around down low, that is an issue.

He does look like his shot is legit though. He's got rare traits for a big like touch, coordination, light feet and good athleticism. He should be a rim protector to some extent. But right now, he looks raw. What more can he add to his game to be more than just a spot up shooter and decent rim protector? But he is definitely a VERY intriguing prospect. He's got a high ceiling.

Bargs was a #1 pick and he's crap. Bogut was a #1 pick (although not a Euro) and he's been decent.

And he averaged 10ppg in ACB as a 20 year old.

Imo european big men are trained in a better way. Big men in US rely too much on physical tools alone. Fundamentals are much more important. Look at the skillset of D-Mo (yes hakeem helped him, but he was that kind of player before nba). Also look how many american big men recently ending up injured early in their career or right after the draft, putting on too much weight too fast might be a problem here.

Yet Georgios Papagiannis is a high school kid, he's same height and wingspan as Porzingis, though he weighs 275, and he can also shoot 3 pointers.

Every single player you listed except Dirk is massive, not just height/frame wise but also in terms of strength and bulk. Especially guys like Mozgov, Pekovic, Asik, etc. Porzingis is a complete twig.

What is really ridiculous I think is how the NBA views "big men" though. Not only are European big men better than American big men by far, but so also are American big men in Europe much better than American big men in the NBA in general.

I take a player like Shane Lawal that in USA they consider a SCRUB in NCAA and not even good enough for the D-League........

And he is probably better than like 80% of the centers in the NBA.

It's just one such example of plenty. It's not just how they teach the big men, it's also that they ONLY EVEN CONSIDER a very specific certain type of big man to be of any worth at all.

And the scouting is also atrocious. Europe is loaded with centers and then NBA brags about how they went and found someone like Raduljica or Pachulia...........

:facepalm

[SwishSquared]

Saric is 210 cm. So he's 6-11 how NBA counts height. Again, players in Europe don't get their height exaggerated like they do in NCAA and NBA.I think he's 6'10" barefoot right- I was just saying how Saric weighs more than Porzingis even though he is shorter and has a smaller wingspan. I think Zinger can add some weight to his frame, I just wonder how much. In interviews, he clearly says the right things about his work ethic, so it seems he'll work diligently with trainers and nutritionists to fill out.

I think Zinger can add some weight to his frame, I just wonder how much. In interviews, he clearly says the right things about his work ethic, so it seems he'll work diligently with trainers and nutritionists to fill out.

What I am saying is, that Europe and NBA will consider to count height differently in general.

In NBA and NCAA it is basic rule take English system, use in shoe height and round up if they think it close to the next inch.

In Europe, in many leagues and teams, the standard is to use barefoot height, and of course this is in metric system, so it is an exact height. So there is no need to round up a height or whatever.

So what I mean is that if you took Saric's height how the NBA would count it, that means he would be like someone the NBA lists at 6-11. Some American player coming from NCAA and all of that.

It does not mean the NBA will ever actually list him that way, nor does it mean he's 6-10 barefoot. Keep in mind most of the players listed in NBA at 6-11 are probably not as tall as 6-10 barefoot.

So when I say 210 cm, I mean that's how tall he is in shoes. That's how the NBA considers height. Then you would round that height up, because it's like 3/4 of an inch or between there and the NBA always rounds those heights up.

So he would be 6-11 how the NBA counts height. Antetokounmpo for example, the Greek national team measured him at 210 cm with shoes on also. But the NBA is claiming he's like 6-11 barefoot.

So probably more like 6-9 1/2 (height they already measured Giannis at barefoot before he even played in 2nd division in Greece - but NBA claimed he was 6-9 his rookie year and then "grew 2 inches in one summer" :lol :oldlol: :roll: :facepalm :rolleyes: ), 6-9 1/4 barefoot or something like that. But how NBA counts the height compared to if it was American players, it's same as being 6-11 in NBA.

Like with Porzingis, if he was playing in NCAA they would listed him at 7-3 probably, where in Spain they listed him 7-1. It does not mean he would have been 7-2 barefoot.

This is actually why of course they think in Europe it is just logical to use the barefoot listing, because the shoes listing does not give a real height. It just changes based on whatever shoes any player wears. But the NBA can't have that, since they want to be able to exaggerate and say they have "the tallest players in the world".

Even though they don't.

I'm talking about the earlier threads about Papagiannis. I was posting about him here several times. And in earlier threads you were trolling also.

Papagiannis is a very good shooter. He's deadly mid range shooter. Good 3 point shooter. He has a great face up jumper and turn around jumper, and he has a tremendous hook shot.

He also has 3 point range and it's quite common for him to knock down a couple of 3 pointers in one game.

He's every bit as good of a shooter, if not better than Porzingis is, because he can get his shot off from anywhere, and against tight locked in defense. he's not just a stretch the floor face up guy.

He can hit the shots with pressure on him and hit the shots against tough defenders. Not just spread the floor or use his reach.

As far as quickness goes, I don't know for sure on that. Probably about the same I would say. But Papagiannis is WAY MORE ATHLETIC overall. WAY MORE athletic. All Porzingis has athletically is at his great length he is very mobile and agile so he can use that length to finish around the rim and shoot over defense.

But he does not have any explosive athleticism and he does not have power athleticism. And he's not the kind of guy that is just going to jump over everyone and dunk the hell out of it on the whole team with taking anyone who gets in his way to the basket for the plus 1. That's exactly the kind of guy Papagiannis is.

And I don't think there is much difference in terms of being able to switch sides, or in being able to switch on screens.

So if NBA is this excited about Porzingis, they will cream their pants totally for Papagiannis.

The trolling was because Euroleague kept posting "papagiannis (the number one pick)" as if the draft had already happened and as if there was zero debate on him going number one. If he'd just posted saying "papagiannis has the potential to be a top pick" or "I think he could be the number one pick" then he would have had slightly less trolling. The guys a good prospect but we've all seen how hard it is in the past to predict someone that far out of a draft so it's better to err slightly in the way of caution and not declare he is already the number one pick.

He totally dominated Stone in one to one match up in like 90% of the time they faced each other on both ends of the court.

You are a psychopath.

The only thing Stone did the entire game was get some wide open lob passes running the floor. Stone would not even be a 3rd string center in Euroleague right now, Papagiannis was in the rotation of one of the biggest teams in Europe towards the end of the year.

The clips of him hitting 3s were from when he was younger. Could just be a team using him differently and getting him to play inside more. Alot of bigs can hit 3s in high school but then focus more on interoir and mid range as the competition increases.

Ceiling is even higher since I think he has the potential to be a much better defender, certainly a better shot blocker right out the gate.

Ceiling is even higher since I think he has the potential to be a much better defender, certainly a better shot blocker right out the gate. That said, even Dirk looked like crap his rookie season so I hope nobody drafts this guy with the illusion of him doing much of anything in his first couple of seasons.


He needs to start eating hamburgers by the dozen and working on his footwork.

Kosta Koufos was very mobile and agile, quite athletic, and was easily a power forward and could cover on defense everywhere before the NBA said he "needed to bulk up".

Supposedly at 7-1 (supposed to be his in shoe height) and 245 he was "too weak and small".

He "bulked up" and he's been barely an average player ever since then. He went from being skilled and versatile, with possibilities on defense, to being a guy that can't defend, and has no real post skills.

But hey, he sure looks great in the weight room.

Porzingis needs to work more on his core and lower body strength he doesn't need a body builders upper body like the nba thinks all big men need

Then click on Panathinsikos.... then click on stats.

Going by that website he hit 3 all year in 11 games. I don't think that means it was "quite common for him to knock down a couple of 3 pointers in one game.."

You like to claim that you know about European basketball. If you know even an iota about it, then you would know that realgm.com is by far the least reliable and accurate site on the internet about it.
As you know, I have defended you and your knowledge of European basketball in here several times. I'm one of the few who has. If you fail to see the humor in what he posted in reference to what you posted, I can't really help you.

He plays in 3 different leagues you moron.

Greek League - first division senior men's professional league.

Greek under 22 league - the highest amateur college age league in Greece.

Greek under 18 league - the highest amateur high school age league in Greece.

Newsflash genius, HE WAS STILL IN HIGH SCHOOL.


Or did you think that only in USA are 17 year old kids asked to go to school?

So? You said he was hitting 3s. Face it, you lied.
