@Canson: I would actually say that 6'4 is viewed as the ideal tall height nowadays. As for me wanting to be 6'8-9, it's just my personal opinion, it's not ideal but I have other qualities that can compensate for that so I will be fine. I guess I like standing out.

@Ellis: I claim 6’4.5 sometimes. But I also do it because taller friends of mine claim their heights so don’t stray from that. Also at this size, it’s plenty tall for me. I can appreciate that you enjoy your height tho. However, I can’t get with the having to add extra inches. I don’t see the point honestly. It’s like me saying that 6’4 isn’t enough when lots of guys that you see will say that they wish they were 6’0” tall let alone 6’2” or 6’3 like you see on general heights. Now for you I’m surprised you want to be 6’8” or 6’9”. That’s not necessarily the most practical or ideal height for daily life

@Canson: You are a very modest person when it comes to your height, literally everyone lies about there height in my city. When I was 16 I was around your height, I was 6'4.5 and I always said I was 6'6. No one second guessed it because they were all lying as well. Since I have grown into that niche, saying that I'm 6'6 nowadays would be laughable, you got guys here at 6'5 saying there 6'7, but I get it. I feel like my body frame has changed now, I feel like 6'5 to 6'7 changes how you look, when I was 6'4-5 I was very tall but my frame wasn't that lanky, now I'm much more lanky at 6'7 barefoot. I wouldn't change it for anything that's my personal opinion on the matter.
Also who do you think is taller Lonzo Ball or yourself?

@Canson: Yeah, on the basketball court I always say I'm 6'8 sometimes 6'9 now(rarely), I used to be insecure about my height I know how crazy it sounds, I would come to my school with insoles upon the default insoles in my shoes(you heard right). I just felt like I wanted to be taller, but now since I'm taller than every single person I know, and I'm taller than my height with shoes on with insoles upon insoles in them barefoot now(it has been a year now since I wore those big shoes), I don't wear insoles upon insoles nowadays. That's not the whole reason though lol, the main reason is because my height shouldn't be my main quality. This one time this kid thought I was 7 feet tall, I went with it lmao. Hopefully I'm still growing, my goal is 6'8 or 6'9 barefoot.

@Ellis: I used to say 6’4 1/2 or 6’5 sometimes when I played ball. Since I’ve been out of college (15 years) that’s been 6’4.5 or 6’4”. Now it’s almost always 6’4. If someone is close in height or challenges I will say I’m like 6’4 1/4-1/2 or 6’4 1/4 but 90% of the time it’s 6’4”. I do it because I have taller friends that are honest about their height as well so don’t need to put them in a position to lie for me. In addition to the fact that I wouldn’t want to be any taller than I am. I consider myself 6’4”. You definitely could get away with 6’8” for sure with a lot of people. But If I were you and you wanted the extra amount, however, I would just claim 6’7” even though you drop to 6’6.25-.5 because you’re close enough that many won’t challenge you. If you wanted to be modest 6’6 probably but that may raise eyebrows as people may think you’re downgrading yourself if you’re 6’6.5 some days still. If 6’6.25 regularly then you’d still get it. I’m not against someone rounding half down because I would even if I were closer to 6’4 1/2 at a low than I am. But because of how much taller you are than everyone. I have been told before “6’4? That’s it”. Or “ you’re taller than that I’m 6’4 and you’re almost 2” taller”. The former is someone who can’t tell the difference the latter is a liar who wants to make himself taller.

@Jdubbz: we’re almost identical. I used to measure 6’4.3-.4 probably but not sure if it was due to longer hair. Now I’m almost always 6’4.25-.3 at my normal low and can get to about 6’4” or a mm over on a rare occasion when I’ve been on my feet but usually when I’m experimenting to see my extreme low. I almost never come to 193.04. Usually about 193.2 maybe 193.1 once assuming I measured right (I was a bit tipsy when I did it once lol)

@Canson: That is my extreme low, I was measured that after doing a lot of activity. I remember, I did bench press and all that good stuff, I also did a bunch of dunks earlier in the day, it was taken at midnight. I was surprised that I measured at that height, because I actually encounter that height a lot later in the day like at nighttime pretty commonly. Mid day I'm a 2 meter man, and early in the day like right out of bed I'm closer to 6'7 and 1/3 than 6'7.5 actually. It actually depends what time of the day people see me, if it is early they will either guess me at 6'7 or 6'8, I say I'm 6'8, if it is later in the day people guess me probably at 6'6, and I say 6'7. Canson how tall do you tell people you are? I say I'm 6'8 usually, I know it sounds crazy but since I'm so much taller than most people, no one can tell the difference of an inch.

@Ellis: that sounds like it must be more like an extreme low for you if you go to 6’6.25 from 6’7.5. What do you measure on a normal day after about 8 hours of being awake (with normal activity)? I’m 2-3” shorter than you but even my extreme low is probably right at 6’4” or a mm over the Mark after waking up around 6’5-6’5 1/8. I usually maintain a mm over 6’4.25 at a normal low which is about 3/4” to 2cm max

I'm not sure what my inseam is but I run a 36 Long in jeans, in my opinion my legs look long. Most people guess me at 6'6 or 6'7 sometimes. My normal height is around 6'6.75 then I shrink once again for my night height.

@viper
There are a few NBA players whose wingspans are nearly a foot longer than their height as well. It's few and far between though.
@Jdubbz
I don't think it's so much that women on average have proportionally longer legs than men, it's more that women have to buy longer pants than men on average, because they have higher waists than men. So for example, a 5'8" man with 32" regular inseam can wear 30" inseam pants just fine, but a 5'8" woman with 32" has to buy pants that are the same length.

@Christian good to know. I do seem to have a longer stride than nearly everyone, so having somewhat long legs for my height would explain that.
Unrelated, but this discussion of pants and actual inseam makes me wonder if the myth that women have proportionately longer legs than men, on average, is really true. Like if a 6'0 girl has a 36 inseam, would she have the same leg length as me, or would her legs be more like 2 inches shorter (since men's crotches hang 2-3 inches lower than our public bone)?

@Jdubbz
That's pretty long for your height, although I wouldn't say super long. Rampage Clover who's a poster, is 6'4" as well and he has 40" inseam but most likely it's a regular inseam rather than pants, so he probably wears 38", which is super long for 6'4". I have a cousin who's weak 6'4" range, about 192cm to be exact, wears 34" pants so probably he's 36".
@Junior
I knew a guy from college whose wingspan's 10" longer than his height. He's only 5'11" but has a 6'9" span, but he had very broad shoulders and huge hands so that could've been the reason why. He played college basketball and he was a really skilled player.

10 is quite small for a 6'3" guy. But I think shoe size and height don't have that strong of a correlation like many people think. One of my friends is only 5'11.5" but he wears the same size as me at 14. And I know another guy around 5'11"-6'0" that wears a 9. And I've seen 6'5" range guys wear anywhere from 12 to 18.

@Junior: I think Melo edges Roberson after seeing pics. It’s possible if Roberson measured 6’6.25 morning that he’s 6’5.75 or 7/8 and Melo honestly looks an afternoon measurement. He may be below the mark slightly at a low but I would be hard pressed to say he’s below 6’6” and may not even get that low. I have a buddy who is 6’6 or 6’6 1/8 at a low I believe or thereabouts and he looked around the same height as Melo in person. Melo could be as high as 6’6.25 as he may have gained a tad (say if the measurement wasn’t the normal low). It looked just about 2” to me and others said 1.5-2” which still puts him right at 6’6 or maybe a mm over. I would have him edging Roberson honestly. Roberson is likely a weaker 6’6 than he is

@Christian: I agree 100%, they do look larger probably due to the angle. A 15 isn’t all that much of a surprise being he’s taller than both of us. But those at first glance look larger than a 15. It’s strange because I know people that are taller than both of us (my friends) that have varying shoe sizes. The “weak” 6’6” fake 6’7, ex teammate wears a 14 or 15 I believe then the legit 6’7” wears a 16 while my legit 6’5 friend wears a 14 or 15 and the 6’6 friend a 14 I believe

@Canson
You're pretty lucky you wear size 13 because stores typically sell up to 13. But I wear size 14 so most shoes I own I had to order online, which tend to be more expensive than offline.

@Canson Thanks for your info. It's strange that Lebron and Melo wear the same size but was report to be 2 size difference more bizarre that Durant wear 19 but from the internet it show size 16.

@Junior: it says here he wears a 15. But you’re right it could be an error. I didn’t pay as much attention to the shoe size when I met him but his feet did look larger than mine and I’m a 13 myself at 6’4-6’4.5 range. I’ve never seen anything but 15 for Melo. But for a 6’6” guy like him that’s about normal. I’ve seek guys my height wear 15 and seen guys an inch taller at 6’5 wear the same size as me

@Canson I thought 15 too but it maybe the shoe design make it look bigger. Carmelo feet size was reported to be size 13-14. Lebron feet size was wrongly stated size 16 in some site but he claim to be 15 not 16 and it's bizarre that Durant feet size was say to be 16 in the past but he claim on IG recently he had a size 19 feet same huge as his buddy Kevin Love.

@Joe: that’s about right. Someone who posted here said 6’5” but I can firmly say that Melo is at worst a solid 6’6 perhaps as tall as 6’6.25. Once you’re into the 1.5-2” range that you see it’s hard to needle down to 1/4” because you don’t know who’s been awake longer etc.

@Canson The time of the measurement always an issues for guessing a correct height of the player. Melo did look 6'6 at a low. Before the draft express remove all players draft measurement i have check on Roberson height was 6'6 1/4 w/o shoes like Melo and they generally look the height maybe a low at 6'6 both. One point is that i don't agree Stephen Curry look as low 6'1.25" because he look 6'1.5-6'1.75" with Durant, Melo and Lebron.

@Christian: I do agree that Caron is “similar” to Kobe in height. But he would be a fraction taller imho. I would be hard pressed to see Butler sub 6’5” at a low whereas Kobe measures 6’4.75.

@Christian: same with Caron Butler. I’ve met him and I find it hard to believe he would be under 6’5”. He could look around 1/2-1” Taller than me. I would say no less than a full 6’5” and Melo no less than 6’6”. Now that’s odd because I have a friend who met Melo that thought he was 6’5 but it’s because he can’t gauge height well either
I do agree with Caesar on Jordan 6’4 1/2 and Barkley same height as Jordan. As well, I concur about D Wade as he’s a weak 6’3” guy who would measure 6’4 in basketball sneakers perhaps or even 6’3.75”

@Caesar: I’ve met Butler and he’s definitely a full 6’5” minimum. He’s not less than that. I’m 6’4 1/4- 3/8 and I could tell he was taller than me by close to an inch. That could be 2cm but it still is a solid 6’5 no less. I would go with 196cm honestly. Melo I’ve also met and he’s not noticeably less than 6’6”. I was told he was 1.5-2” taller than me and we both had dress shoes on in the restaurant. Look at him with Kobe as well that’s 1.5” difference. I agree on MJ and Barkley both 6’4.5 barefoot and Blake as well 6’7.5-.75 Love is around that height maybe 6’7.25-.5.
Russ looks awfully low. He’s been guessed 6’4 and 6’5. I know someone who’s met him and said he’s maybe 6’2 and change.

Wade: 6’2.5-6’3 Have seen him multiple times. Always looked a very weak 6'3.
Pippen 6'7 Pippen is nothing below this.
Kobe 6’4.5 A very weak 6'5 is what he always looks in person. His wife measurement doesn't count in my eyes.
Melo 6’5 Yes! Carmelo is no more than 6'5. Compare pictures of him with Lebron James. Lebron has at least an inch on him.
Lebron 6’6.25 Seen him twice. Easy 6'6.
Jordan 6’4.5 This what he looks in person.
Barkley 6’4 5/8 Never met him but this looks accurate.
Durant 6’9 Legitimate
Westbrook 6’1-6.1.5

@Junior: not sure on Roberson. I’m not sure what he measured but I know that 2013 was a morning measurement. Anything 2009 or beyond was. Melo was drafted in 2003. Not sure if that was morning but I would guess if it was that it was later morning. You’re absolutely right that there is a chance Melo could dip to 6’6” flat. Even the people around us said 1.5-2” difference. but he could honestly look just half inch shorter than Lebron as well. I put him around 198.5 (6’6-6’6.25). He can look closer to the pre draft height with Kobe as well. That looks closer to 1.5” than 1” imho. I’ve never noticed Roberson with Melo but I would have Melo taller than him if anything

If Carmelo was measure like ever other NBA teammates in the earlier morning he could be go as low as 6'6 flat. Andre Roberson doesn't look shorter than Carmelo and many argues that Roberson look just legit 6'6 although Roberson himself claim 6'7. More i look at Carmelo i'm confuse that 1/4. He might be just 6'6 at low. Sometimes he wear thicker footwear like Nike Air style that given 1.-4" boost of height.

@Frost: for Kobe I haven’t met him or MJ or Chuck. Although I did see chuck from a distance in philly once he looked short imho and a buddy of mine is 6’3” and met him two times and said he’s my height and a former coach of mine was a scout for years and said the same (he himself is 6’2). He also said Jordan was my height. I’m 6’4 1/4 at night to maybe 6’4 1/3 on a day when I’m not active He said Kobe looked “about 6’5” and that Wade was barely taller than him and that if he were over maybe 6’3” he would be surprised. He felt about half inch prob. He said 6’2/6’3. I met Melo and he looks close enough. If anything I’d say he is a good 6’6 and can be 198-99. Not less than 6’6” tho. I met Caron Butler and he was 6’5” maybe at most 6’5.25 like his draft but looked a decent 6’5” not less. There are some others there too. Jason Maxiell I played against and he did grow. He wasn’t noticeably taller than me when I saw him in high school then in college if he were taller it was about 1/2”-1” maybe. I know his cousin and he’s grown to about 6’5.5 now and that showed when he was cut from a team overseas from exceeding the height requirement of 6’5. But that’s a rare instance as a lot of the younger players now (that are measured first thing in the AM) don’t ever look as they’re listed on a draft bio. My same 6’3” friend stood next to Wall before and said he’s not even 6’2”. Said he had him by 1-1.5” which is consistent with a 6’0” friend that said Wall was only slightly taller than him like 1.5” or so

Russ looks spot on imho (6’2.5 is possible for him I’ll say). Russ looks a perfect 4” shorter than Melo does. I could almost even say Russ can look 6’3 at times but also see a flat 6’2” other times. He looks a lot taller in comparison to his contemporaries such as lillard and those guys. Speaking of Lillard remember Shawn Respert? He was listed 6’3 but wasn’t over 6’0.5 or 6’.75 lol. Damian is shorter than all 6’1” players out there imho. He looks less than 6’1” with Kloss
Lowry I totally agree he doesn’t look much bigger than CP3

@Rob: good thinking. You have him precise as listed. Met him in person 2 years ago and he’s roughly 2” taller than I am. One of the few NBA players who’s listing matches his pre draft (likely it was in the afternoon that year)
@5’11: if Melo were measured in the morning he may be 199.5-200 the in first hour out of bed maybe 2 hours max. Johnson bases his estimates off of soccer players who are likely overlisted in some cases (those are morning measurements for them) so instead of bringing them to normal he inflated the legit guys

Carmelo was very close to 4cm taller than Kobe Bryant but look more like 1.475inch (3.747cm). I would say Carmelo is a good 6'6 3/8 (199.07cm) and Kobe Bryant was more like 6'4 7/8 (195.26cm)
