Gary Payton was listed at 6' 4" and Jordan, 6' 6". Seems about right to me.

I had a bunch of people tell me lately that Payton is 6'1 to downplay the 90s era.

Looks like 6'2 to me, not 6'1

Wade = 6'4
Payton = 6'2

In your picture Payton is clearly a couple of feet closer to the camera than Wade.

In my picture Jordan and Payton are face to face.

I guess J. Kidd is 6'1 too :confusedshrug:

Of course, the biggest fallacy is that 'height' automatically equates to great defense. Another is athleticism....

So you're saying Jason Kidd is 6'1 then?

Check out Hakeem in that pic! Makes him even more badass since he was probably more like 6'9" and still took D Rob and Shaq to the woodshed.:rockon:

I mean sure if you want your dumbass ethered for the millionth time:

In this picture is he closer to Wade than he's closer to Jordan in my picture?

In this picture are him and Wade the same distance from the camera?
Are they EYE to EYE like in my picture?

Payton's left arm is literally closer to the camera than Wade's right arm :roll:

Would either of those things affect perceived height?

So you're not able to answer any of the questions.

Cool keep deluding yourself til your face is blue brah. Reality gon remain reality and it kills y'all inside. It's the only reason you continue to blatantly spew bullshit.

Have fun coping with your deluded life :cheers:

Okay let's put aside your Superduper height analysis science for one second.

You seriously not look at that picture and realized that Dwyane Wade is taller?
