    We're about to get a lot of PG's under 6ft. Chris Paul, Kyle Lowry, Lillard. Even Steph should be only 6'1.

    How dumb are people in the league office? I mean, I’ve never heard in any sport that they have fake / inflated / false birth dates and especially height measurements. This is hilarious and is not going to make a difference. Have league officials or a doctor just do it for each team with verification by a third party and then you’ll get it right. However, the history books are still inaccurate so what’s the point of this request?

    Everyone in the entire league about to lose 1 inch with the heights being used without shoes.

    I suspect Morey has some influence in this. He wants to make sure all the PFs he gets are REALLY 6'7.

    so when will these number finally get out? They should have already taken the official measurements.

    Now is the perfect time to reveal them when nothing is going on and fans have not much to discuss about. Or will they try to throw it under the rug and publish them in the first second day of the season when there will be like 12 games a night?
