    The NBA takes height with shoes on.

      Re: ANYONE KNOW T-MAC\'S REAL HEIGHT

      Seeing Vince and Tracy Go at it the other day led me to believe that t-mac could be 6'10, but i think a safer bet is 6'9".

      Most Heights that are listed on NBA rosters are accurate but we all know(or at least all of y'all should know)that players sometimes aren't as tall as their listed or vice versa. Charles barkley was listed at 6'8" cuz noone wanted to admit to being out rebounded by someone who's 6'5"- 6'6"

      Look at KG easily 7' and possibly 7'1", but listed at 6'11 or 6'10 cuz people think of 7'ers as slow and nooone wanted to admit to being crossed up by a 7 footer.

      I'm starting to think that the nba's short an inch on 50% of it's players.

      I thought michael Redd was 6'6" but he's no taller than ray allen

            Who cares? Why are people getting into it about people's height?

            If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                        Actually, rosters always lie about players height, weight, etc.

                              who cares, 6'7 or 6'10... he's still a freak! seriously, when is the last time you saw somebody that tall on the street? honest to God, I doubt I have ever seen somebody 7 feet tall in my life. as long as he is that tall, I doubt it makes a difference to his game. It's ludicrous to say that 7 footers are slow and uncoordinated while a 6'10 guy isn't, there's hardly any difference. And if t-mac is taller than the other players he guards by one inch, two inches, or three inches it's not a big deal. Wingspan is the most important thing when players are all close to each other like that in height. With t-mac it's not just that he is a bit taller, but that he is so lanky; he can extend making it hard to block him and easier for him to defend other players. I assume this is what everyone is arguing over, the fact that knowing his real height may change people's opinion on his game (otherwise why would it matter how tall he is?).
