    Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett Get Into Argument Over Who's Taller

    November 10, 2005

    SAN ANTONIO, TX—Two weeks after Kevin Garnett called him "shorty," Tim Duncan, the normally mild-mannered San Antonio Spurs center, lashed out against the Minnesota Timberwolves star following a heated height contest Monday night. "He clearly went on his tip-toes," Duncan said. "Also, note that I play center and he plays forward, and it's common knowledge that centers are always taller than forwards." Duncan, who offers as proof of his superior height the fact that his shoulders are higher up than Garnett's, also asked his former teammate David Robinson for his opinion. "I remember Kevin being a tad taller, but I'm not 100 percent sure," Robinson said. "However, I know them both to be men of exceptional height, definitely taller than most people." Both men are officially listed at 6 feet 11 inches, although Duncan would not rule out the possibility of a late-life growth spurt eventually making him "way taller."

    Garnett is like an inch or so taller than Timmy from what i have seen. It is hard to know how tall anyone is, Timmy was listed at 7'0, now he is 6'11. But he is no doubt at least 2 inches taller than Horry listed at 6'10. Amare Stoudamire also listed at 6'10, Timmy has a good 2 inches on him too, so it is tough to tell, teams are always lying about players heights.

    Duncan has an additional 72" on Garnett regardless of what you all want to think. See, the Larry O'Brien trophy is 24" tall, and since TD has three....well, do the math you geniuses out there!

    Word has it that KG is 7'1" and forces the team to list him below 7 foot so he isn't criticized as much for playing on the perimeter so much.
