I know there are camera perspectives at play here but damn if it doesn’t look like Dick has grown an inch since he got drafted.

If you ever get down to the tunnel where players come in and out for a game and just loiter early. The big guys are truly huge. The tv doesn’t do it justice. The speed they switch ends of the floor is also incredible.

The big shock is when you are near some coaches up close, or a player who looks small on the court like AI did back in the day. 5’8” is short, but even 6’1” on the screen looks short and up close is a reality check.

Don’t hate me I am extremely new to basketball, I honestly thought the shortest people in the NBA are like 6’1″ or around there
I saw Markquis and I was shocked he is able to compete against the big guys then I saw a different video with a team having someone who is just as short

I used to work at the ACC and the majority of the “normal” sized NBA players are not accurate. Nate Robinson was the one I remember most because according to the measurements we should be the same size. But he was definitely shorter than me and when I worked there I wore Jordan’s so my height was being exaggerated by heels.
