It's pronounced like yro or ero. No g and with an e sound.
Did you know that the Greeks didn't invent the Gyro though and actually ripped it off from another culture? True story...ask slomo about it sometime.

The height of a player restricts them to certain positions? If that's the case, someone tell Kevin Durant that he's a Power Forward.

Just for reference, there was a * at Duncan's name. If you scroll alllllll the way down to the bottom you will see that the height listed was a visual estimate; a real measurement was not taken.

Duncan didn't have pre-draft camp measurements and certainly didn't measure 6 11 1/2 in barefeet.

Yes, KBP, you figured it out. If Duncan is ever measured at 7' he becomes a mandatory center, as is clearly spelled out in the NBA rulebook. He also loses his eligibility for the hall of fame, as his championships and MVPs will be discounted in importance.

Hes not 6-11.5 w/o shoes, during nba draft he measured 6-10 w/o shoes.....he is shorter than D Rob, shorter than Dirk so I would say hes 6-11 in shoes.
Dirk is not taller than Tim Duncan.
D Rob is a true 7 footer, actually lists at 7'1"

Dirk is taller, no matter how you look at them. Duncan slouches so pics are deceiving, but there are no pics of them together where Dirk isn't noticably taller.

In the pic posted by duncan228 I guess Dirk has boots or something because he looks taller than he is.(look his eyes and Yao's mouth and compare with next pics)
DIrk is very similar to TD if you cut his hair.He could be only a few taller if he is.
And both are very similar to KG too.

He shunk when David Robinson retired. I remember in 2003 and a little before he used to always be listed at 7 feet and David at 7'1". When David retired he was listed at 6'11' and Rasho I think was listed at 7 feet.
Duncan shrunk by his choice.
When Duncan was drafted the Spurs wanted to play up the 'Twin Towers' angle. When Robinson retired, Duncan asked them to list him at his 'real' height of 6'11. The Spurs media guide changed for the '03-'04 season, some of the other listings, ESPN, NBA.com, etc, were slower to change, some never changed.
KBP, this was taken back in 1997.
Don't people in Greece get smaller as they get older too?
lol, you're just teasing him, right? You don't start shrinking at around 30.

Where did "he's afraid" come from? I've never seen Duncan afraid of anything.
He's called a Power Forward. He plays a ton of Center. Call him anything you want, it doesn't matter. He's one of the all-time greatest big men to ever play this game.
It's garbage to think Duncan doesn't want to be callled a Center because of where he'll end up all-time. He's never cared about individual recognition.
And I'm with the "he's never been 6'11.5" crowd. He's just not that tall.

Pau is 2.15m which is 7-1. Duncan look like he is within inch of him maybe.

Maybe in your eyes, and assuming Pau's listed height is legit.
I think Duncan might be 6'11 in shoes. I've always thought he's somewhere between 6'10 and 6'11. IMO he's nowhere near 7' and he never has been.
It's all relative, pics are deceiving, Duncan slouches, etc. We've been through this a million times.
He is what he is. A Power Forward who plays Center. One of the best of all-time.
KBP blows dogs for quarters.
KBP uses the USA flag as toilet paper, but he still owns the USA flag.
KBP was propositioned for a threesome by Angelina Jolie and Carmen Electra but declined fearing it was a US government operation to silence his dissenting viewpoints.
KBP was once kidnapped and the kidnappers threatened to kill him if his family did not pay a sum equal to ONE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS. His family laughed it off and said to go ahead and kill him. The kidnappers said they would instead send him to the USA, and KBP's family quickly wired the money to save their baby.
KBP is constantly monitored by Homeland Security, not because the US government deems him a thread, but because he provides more lulz than the "men seeking men" personals on the San Francisco craigslist site.
KBP likes guys with a little bit fat, a little bit hairy back who sometimes go to striptease, but he's not jealous.
