LeBron on KD’s height: “7-foot tall… he might be mad at me, he wants to be 6’10” or 6’9″ so bad, but he’s 7-foot for sure”

Would anyone view KD’s legacy any different if he was listed at 7 feet?
So close to the 6’13” Kevin Garnett status
I love the friendship they have
6’ 10 3/4”
At this point his release point alone makes the 7-foot argument feel pretty fair. Defenders contest perfectly and it still barely matters.
Think KD didn’t want to be seen as 7ft tall back then when he started because that meant play more center.
Is KD the most agile 7 ft player ever?
You can tell KD stands like someone who wants to be shorter lol. He slouches and never stands up tall.
Added some emotionaLe Damage before game 3
I knew the 6’10 was a lie when they said cousins was 6’10 and KD cleared him in height lmao
Except he’s been officially measured by the NBA as not 7’.
If KD was serious he’d sit/throw the rest of the series to punish the rockets tbh
I’ve never heard of a professional athlete wanting to be shorter. Can I trade heights?
Genuinely curious, why would he want to be seen as shorter? I buy the “doesn’t want to be put at center” at the beginning of his career, but why still?
To me KD has always been 6”11- 7”0 and is a proto SF/PF with the ability to shoot like a guard. His problem is he isn’t adapting to double teams nor picking up with his passing when defense corners him. His height should be to his benefit I mean Bron is what 6”8-6”9 and obviously is a godly playmaker. But LeBron always adapted year after year for his play style. I won’t complain though as a Laker fan lol
My guess is that KD thinks 7-footers are kind of looked upon as “freaks”. Think Yao Ming, think Wemby. Dude just wants to be a 6’9 wing.
He’s 6’12” everyone knows

KD is a bonafide weirdo – mental gymnastics for everything. Therapy should help
