    dirk is not 6'10. i met dirk, peja and divac (they were together) at the nba all star game in dc in 2001 and dirk was as tall as vlade. dirk is a legit 7 footer. and peja is a legit 6'10...i was suprised he was so tall. i'm 6'3 and they all made me feel tiny.
    had a tape measure with you or something? were they by any chance wearing shoes?

    Dirk actually dresses pretty decent.

    There's also a pic of Dirk, Duncan, and Kobe on the Spurs All Star homepage. Bryant looks short there compared to Duncan and Dirk...
    As an European he could dress better, but again Germans are not known for style really.

    I wanted to see how Bargnani would look, and the Italian did not dissapoint me. Armani belt, crisp white shirt, ed hair.

    Tim is a legit 6'11 but what gives him an edge is the length of his arms. They are longer than most guys who have an inch or two on him so he actually has the advantage.
    i think what gice tim the edge is his ridiculously giant hands.

    Manu Ginobili is 6-5 1/2, not less than that.

    Duncan was measured 6'11.5" at the 1997 pre-draft camp but that must be in shoes because I also heard he measured 6'10.5" which sounds more accurate.

    Duncan was listed at 6 feet 10 inches his senior year at Wake Forest. When we
    measured him at the pre-draft camp in Chicago, he was 6-11 1/2.
    http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=AASB&p_theme=aasb&p_action=sear ch&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=0EA05982D07C653A&p_field_direct-0=do ent_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date&s_trackval=GooglePM

    That would mean he wears 1" shoes like Greg Oden. So here are Duncan's stats from the 1997 pre-draft camp.

    Height w/o shoes: 6'10.5"
    Height w/ shoes: 6'11.5"
    Weight: 249

    I got that information from this site.

    I've heard Dirk is 6'10" but he looks taller than that to be honest. I heard in Europe they list players barefoot and Dirk was listed 212 cm meaning he would be 6'11.5" barefoot. If you want to see Duncan look really short look at him next to 7'1" barefoot Shaq who is 7'2.75" in shoes.



    Duncan doesn't look much shorter than 7'0" barefoot David Robinson though.






    6'10.5" barefoot seems dead on for Duncan.
