Kobe's height (compared to Roy)

The NBA lists both guards at 6'6 but Brandon Roy clearly looks bigger and taller than kobe!

I heard Kobe mention that he knows that he is only 6'4 or 6'5 and not 6'6...

So my question is why does the NBA do this? Even KG, who is listed at 7'0 knows that this is not his exact height.

And do you also think Roy is bigger than KB?

 

roy is known to be a legit 6'6", ive heard that from opposing coaches and the like.

 

I'm a solid 6'4 1/2' and i've stood beside Kobe. He was atleast an inch taller than me (i like to size up people when i stand next to them if they're tall, so i stand straight lol). There's no way he's 6'4'. That, and he clearly hunches.

 

Kobe's not 6'4 I've seen him stand next to people that height without slouching or anything; authentiq is right.

 

kobe is 6'6. roy actualy lost weight so he shouldnt look biggger than kobe. he used to weight 230.
