Re: Height & Weight Changes

Draft Express shows actual heights in the combine measurements database.

Re: Height & Weight Changes

Editing weight makes no diference guys. You have to go below a certain limit for a player to get either enormously bigger, or much smaller. Sometimes if you deduct a pound, the player with gain or lose an entire body size. I don't know why seemingly every sport gaming company has this issue with player builds

So you mean it DOES make a difference, right? Becuase what is bolded is the exact reason why i was saying it shouldnt be messed with unless you can do so without making the player change to a unrealistic body type.

It does make a difference in my case because I'm talking about creating new players, not editing existing ones.

Durant should be 6'11 but dont change his weight cuz it will make him big.

Re: Height & Weight Changes

NBA.com is NOTORIOUS for this. Actually for the most part most NBA teams never change "listed weights".

In the case of Rasheed though, I've found that its not just NBA.com, its everybody, literally!

I mean, look at this statement, from an article talking about last year's Finals when Perkins got hurt: "The 6-foot-11, 230-pound Wallace will take over for the 6-10, 265-pound Perkins". No way that Perk outweighs Sheed by 35 pounds.

OK, I'm done ranting about this now...it just makes it difficult for classic team roster creators like myself when we can't get good official estimates.

So were all in agreement, some weights are better left alone.

Austin Daye is 6'11" and 205 lbs. He gained 5 lbs. over the summer, which is not enough if he is going to be playing PF for very long.

He's taller than 7'0" for sure since he measured out at 7 and a 1/4 in shoes at the combine. Its possible hes grown the other 1/4 inch since then.

Russell Westbrook is "listed" at 6'3". Durant is 8 inches taller in this photo?

Durant at 6'11" is one inch shorter than Dwight Howard????



He's not that much bigger that Kobe.

6'9" is closer to the truth.

Rasheed is a 6'10"/6'11" player.

And Garnett is not a 7 footer. Dirk is taller than Garnett.
