Summer league practice photos

Huh?

Anfernee's hair adds about 4 inches to his height haha

 

[jlprk]

There's not a 4-inch difference between him and Trent you're trippin. Simons is also standing at a slant.

If you take away his hair I could a see a four inch difference. But you are right about standing at a slant.

The leg supporting Simons is vertical. The slanted leg's heel doesn't reach the floor. You must think that Swanigan is standing at a slant, too.

Trent is usually listed at 6-5, but I've seen 6-6. I'll go with the latter. I hope he develops faster than Crabbe did.

Simons...I've seen mostly 6-3, a few 6-4s, and one or 2 6-2s. I argued against his fans in his thread for 6-3. I win. In fact, from now on, I'm calling him a full 6-2, which is what Lillard is. (Until I see them together, then I'll adjust it.) (For his legs, he should lose a listed inch anyway.)

Simons looks like a kid.

Whatever Zach was saying, it was funny

He's also standing next to a 7-footer. There's not a 10 inch difference between him and Zach. He's easily 6'3.5, not 6'2.

He has smooth svelte legs. I think I'll return to his thread and rattle all his fanboys about Simons being trans. (Ha ha. Ain't I a bitch.)

I've looked 10 inches down at 6-2 shrimps all my life. I know an ant when I see one.

Is Simons really 6.4? He looks smaller to me

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Zach has definitely put in the work to gain muscle. I’d like to see him put on some more but I’m okay with his slender body if he can maintain for the season. He’s stronger than his lean frame would indicate and he’s clearly a tough dude.

He's standing next to a 7-footer... lol.

And then you get down from your step stool and feel inferior again... lmao.

Who's this guy trying to dunk on IV? Is this McDaniels?

I'm pretty sure that's Gary tent jr

so you were cooking in a Chinese restaurant all your life? as an accountant you should know that 6-2=4 though...that means when you cooked the kung pao shrimp you ate two and left the customer with 4 and some batter shaped like shrimp

This was a nice respite from bitching about free agency. No matter how negative I start feeling about the team, show me players in a Blazers uniform (even summer league duds) and I get tingly. I needed this.

Those arms....

It's not. Trent had a sleeve. That's KJ.

 

[Eastoff]

Biggie biggie, can't you see he's still your teammate even in a different penny.

I just realized that whales get big by eating shrimp.

Contemplating basketball yields useful insights.

Great pics, Thanks

 

[Labinot41]

I think the Summer League pace could be to fast for Simmons

 

[Labinot41]

The big fella is working

 

[BonesJones]

For the people that said Simons is 6'2....

He's easily taller than Dame.

FUCK !!!!

From that angle

 

[JDC]

Why are we guessing from photos when we have barefoot measurements?

Dame: 6'1.75"
Ant: 6'2.25"

 

[jlprk]

I'm calling him a full 6-2, which is what Lillard is. (Until I see them together, then I'll adjust it.) (For his legs, he should lose a listed inch anyway.)

Okay, now I've seen them standing together. Simons is an inch taller than Lillard, who's a full 6-2, so Simons is a full 6-3, not 6-4. I look down 8 inches upon such an ant.

 

[jlprk]

Dame: 6'1.75"
Ant: 6'2.25"

Yes, that's barefoot. I've seen Ant listed as low as 6-1.5 barefoot. (Only one place, admittedly.)

In my opinion, all heights should be listed barefoot.

 

[jlprk]

Aha!! Lillard is wearing sandals, while Ant is wearing shoes! I win afterall! Ant is really 6-2!!

In other news, today's measurement shows me now looking down 16 inches at Ant.
