I have no problem with those announcers saying Baby looks no bigger than 6'6". He looks between 6'6 and 6'7 to me too.
It comes as no revelation that he's vertically challenged as a big anyway, whatever he measures in at.
Remember in the preseason game when he played against Pops Mensah Bonsu (sp?)
They listed at the same height, and Pops looked easily two inches taller than BB.
I'm wishing the kid well, though. He's an interesting package. He's clearly got skills, but
I do think he might struggle on the defensive end against longer 4s/5s. Just watching that
Cleveland preseason game, it was apparent that Gooden could shoot over the top
of BB any time he wanted to.
Still, BB is a lot more skilled than a guy like Brandon Hunter was, who was all the rage
a couple of years ago.
On to the games!
