<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Magloire has dropped 20 pounds since the summer, from 270-something to 250-something. He hasn't lost his wingspan, though: It's still 7-foot-7.</p>

"He's the only guy I've played with who can grab the rim and touch the floor with his toes," Josh Boone said. "Ridiculous. It's amazing. And he's not even that tall - I'm really only 6-9 (without shoes), and I have a half-inch on him."</p>

Says Mr. Collins, "Sean has long arms, too. But Jamaal, he came with the super-stretch."</div></p>

I found that interisting.</p>

I want to see a vertical jump contest between Magloire and Twin. Doubt either of them could get over a dollar bill.</p>

D'Alessandro suggested they couldnt mount a piece of toast...he is more generous.</p>

Damn I had no idea that Magloire had such arms. I'll throw this out there: Rod Benson is 7'3"</p>

 

[J.S]

Just out of curiosity, what is Malik Allen's wingspan?

 

[pegs]

Wow, impressive. Now, imagine if Magloire came with more height and hops, and if Williams had more height. That'd be a scary defensive shot-blocking duo to face.</p>

I wonder if they'll get any floor time together. I'm really really really pulling for Sean to show his shotblocking and rebounding skills and get some minutes out there. He could turn out to be a huge asset to this team.</p>

 

[ghoti]

Krstic's is 6'2".</p>

He is a T-Rex.</p>

 

[GMJ]

I can't say I regard Magloire as having any form of 'hops' but for what its worth he can do a 360 no-look dunk. Just do not ask me how he gets up there. Maybe JC can take a lesson</p>

</p>

Which is all the better for his shooting. I guess that explains why he's such a good shooter.</p>

And that also makes it a little more surprising that he actually been close to averaging 1 bpg for his career.</p>

I made that up.</p>

But he's still a T-Rex.</p>

[GMJ]

Not balding enough</p>

 

[Ma3oxuct]

7'7"! Thats insane. I'm surprised he does not average more blocks per game.

What is Yao's wingspan?</p>

edit: Just found it Yao has a winspan of 7' 5"</p>

Ghoti, is that stats true ? (Krstic's wing span)</p>

I'm really hoping Sean Williams turns out rather than having a Antione Wright type rookie season.</p>

I think Nenad should grow his hair out...</p>

 

[jirohkanzaki]

sean williams' hops + 7'5" wingspan = 2 of antoine wright's shots swatted out of the gym in scrimmage...not good for antoine...he should probably just master that corner 3 where bruce bowen makes his living offensively.</p>

also, the t-rex comment is more applicable to yao...7'5", short arms but have trees for legs.</p>

 

[Kidd Karma]

Boy if we did keep Benson and run a zone d with the backline being Magloire, Williams and Benson. Minny had some success running out a front court of Griffin(RIP) and KG.....at least from a zone d perspective</p>

Oh, that'd be awesome. My dream come true. It'd be like a volleyball game on defense, with the ball getting smacked everywhere.</p>

 

[#1_War_Poet_ForLife]

It'd be like that one game of NBA Street 2 pong my friend and I set up.</p>

He has rebounding skills? I'm pretty sure he was a weak rebounder in college. Didn't even impress with his rebounding in summer league.</p>

</p>

Word from camp is that he's improved on his rebounding, and is working harder to get rebounds. He averaged about 7(?) his senior year in college, which isn't so bad, and if he's improved on that, I'd be happy.</p>

who has the longest wingspan in the nba?</p>
