And it lists Gabe Pruitt as 6'4", and 170 lbs.

Wtf? I'm 6' tall, and at 170 I look skinny as heck. It's gotta be a typo, right?

Honestly, no one thinks that a 6'4" guy at 170 lbs is strange? :D

I am 5'8 and and I don't look fat at 170. But 6'4 and 170 has to be Shawn Bradley, or Manute Bol type of skinny.

Yup, that's super skinny. But this is the NBA. There is no shortage of skinny people. It's kinda like the Anti San Antonio.

It just seems weird... I mean, at 6', I weigh a respectable 185. At 170, I'm pretty thin.

At 6'4", weighing 170 lbs? I mean, not only can you not have any fat on you, but you damn near can't have any muscle either. Heck, if the fans cheer loud enough, you may be caught on the breeze.

Shaun Livingston came into the NBA at 6'7" 170. He couldn't even lift 185 off the bench when doing the bench press.

first, all nba players are skinnier than they look on TV.

second, the height they are listed, is with shoes on, and they usually add another inch just for the hell of it. you can usually knock a good 2-3 inches off their height.

Wasn't it Kevin Durant who couldn't bench 135 or something?

185, that's the weight they have the players bench at during the combine. Durant couldn't do 185, but there's a player like that every year, Anthony Randolph a year ago and Austin Daye this year. Livingston not only couldn't do one rep, he couldn't even lift the weight off the bench.
