    are big!

    Who has the biggest hands in the league?

    Shaq, C-Webb, Timmy..?

    http://www.nba.com/gallery/October13/071013_1.html

    Do any of the oldies here remember Duncan's measurements from the 1997 camp, ie wingspan etc...

    Id assume around 7'5" with a 9'4" standing reach.

    Vince Carter
    Jamal Magloire
    Dwyane Wade
    Robert Horry
    Tayshaun Prince

    and thats all I can think of for now..

    If you watch closely you will see Timmy palming the ball in one hand more than almost any other player. Whether it be on hook shots, rebounds, holding the ball high to pass, he palms the ball a lot more than average. It also helps explain why he is such a great catcher, a very underrated part of being an elite big man.

    Shawn Redhage has been on F-I-R-E this season. We still undefeated? I was ment to go to Wednesdays game....

    Yeh Jordan also had massive hands, ive never seen anyone with bigger hands being under 6'8" or so.

    As you said, big hands are crucial for big men, i dont think Nazr ever caught a Manu pass mainly because of his small hands.

    Two guys with real small hands for their size are Kwame Brown, and Kobe aswell.

    At the NBA store in New York you can measure up against the hand prints of around 50 players. C-Webb, Duncan and Shaq have some of the biggest if not the biggest hands there.

    The player who has suprisingly huge hands is Jason Kidd. You would think he's like 6'10 from his hand print.

    We are 3-2 mate. Redhage is incredible, I truly think he should be somewhere in the NBA. Wednesday was amazing, they needed a big quarter from him so he scores 16pts on 6 minutes, and has even started hitting the 3. His 3PT% this season would be very high.

    Imagine the size of their s.

    Shaqs former wife was small. I bet it was like a fist being jammed down her mouth when she was sucking it.

    I didn't mean to offend anybody, but do it to yourself now:

    Clench your fist and try to fit it in your mouth and make some funny noises - That's the life of a wife of a NBA player. LMAO

    Jordon's hands are as big as they come. Got to meet him one time at a basketball camp and I will never forget shaking his hand and watching mine disappear.

    I have fairly big hands, can palm most any reg. size ball, and it was a HUGE advantage for me. Jerome Kersey couldn't palm the ball, FYI.

    The one thing I noticed in that picture is the size of Duncan's palm. My fingers are pretty comparable in length to Tim's (I'm 6'3), but his palm is HUGE. No wonder he can grab the ball so easily. Which attributes to a better grip, a large palm, or long fingers?

    Not according to one of his former girlfriends who reently said that Shaq was avweage for someone who stood 5ft.4in. Quite a revelation.

    Yeah, TD looks like he's holding a softball.



    Look how long Yao's hand/fingers are, that's a softball in his hands too.

    Shaq is the only guy who it looks like is holding on to an orange and you realize a bit later that he's shooting a basketball.

    Hands and s 're remotely related. I'm sorry but you living an unreality...

    The biggest hands I've noticed are those of Wilt Chamberlain, Connie Hawkins, Julius Erving and Shaquille O'Neal. The first three were also good at "fingeroll". Jordan's is real big too, but not as big as Erving's.
