[QUOTE=Chadwin]How much taller is Aldridge than Howard?[/QUOTE]
And Davis.
He's 5'11.5"-5'11.75" barefoot and about 6'0.75"-6'1" flat in shoes.
[QUOTE=ralph_i_el]He was measured at the combine. Nearly 6'8" wingspan so who gives a **** about his height? That's like Rondo level wingspan. You can't use team pics to compare player heights, because it doesn't take posture into account. A slight slouch can make a 2-3 inch difference[/QUOTE]
It's ridiculous how few people realize how some long arms make up for a players height. You know why you don't hear talk about how Wade is an undersized SG? Because he's really not...he's 6'4" with a 6'10" wingspan. Elton Brand was the same way, 6'8" but with an incredibly absurd 7'5.5" wingspan. (:biggums: ...god damn I haven't though about how long his arms were in a long time) To put that into perspective...Hassan Whiteside is 7'1" with a 7'7" wingspan. The point is...Elton Brand was always able to play down there with the big boys and was never considered undersized because of those insanely long arms. Early in his career he was known as bruiser (even led league in offensive rebounds) in the paint.

a 6'6" guy with the same standing reach and vertical as a 7' guy won't outrebound the 7 footer

If the 6'6" guy is wider and weigh similar or more than the 7 footer, I'm picking Barkley over Dirk.

thought the same thing :lol
Yeah Lilard looks like he was cheating another inch from the inch or two they already cheat on. Like someone eariler mentioned that Lilard has a goodwingspan so he plays as a 6'3'' player fairly easily so it's not that big of a deal. Wingspan > height
:oldlol: at the Anthony Davis head thing. Him and dwight look more jacked then they are cause they got those god damn pinheads :oldlol:
