MIAMI -- As expected, LeBron James and Dwyane Wade will be on opposite sides for Saturday night's South Florida All-Star Classic at Florida International.

James' team for the game is set to include Miami Heat teammate Chris Bosh, Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant of Oklahoma City, Boston's Rajon Rondo, Philadelphia's Lou Williams, Memphis' Rudy Gay, Atlanta's Jamal Crawford, Houston's Jonny Flynn and free agent guard Damon Jones.

Expected to play with Wade are Heat teammate Mario Chalmers, former Heat teammates Caron Butler (Dallas) and Dorell Wright (Golden State), New York's Amare Stoudemire and Carmelo Anthony, New Orleans' Chris Paul, Portland's Wesley Matthews, Washington's John Wall and free agent center Eddy Curry.

The rosters were released by FIU on Thursday, but are subject to change -- and typically do somewhat before most exhibitions.

Nevermind.

Lol dude, read the thread.

Most of these guys look a lot skinnier in person. From far away I thought Kevin Durant was some freshman waterboy who was warming up. Chris Paul looked a lot younger and shorter than I had imagined too. I tried talking trash to Wade and I thought I was going to get jumped by some people. I definitely booed Melo too.

The game was exciting but too long. I had to go outside and take a long phone call from someone, so that shortened my evening. The crowd was really energetic and easily impressed.

Even in college, basketball players have abnormally long legs (because they've been selected for leaping ability). TV cameras and fans in the stands view players from above, so they appear to have a normal ratio of height to width.

And don't forget the camera adds ten pounds ... then consider the fact they probably have 3 or 4 cameras on them and it really adds up.
