2014 NBA Combine Thread (Measurements Are Posted)

[Roy H.]

So Randle is about the same height as Gordon and has slightly longer reach and wingspan.  That's a little surprising to me.

Just a little shorter than Vonleh, as well.

A heartfelt thanks for this and TP!

Dante Exum is a freak. No surprise.

Nik Staskas is nearly 6'7. His offensive skill set would fit nicely with this team.

That's big to me. His length was a major critique for him. Vonleh is smaller then advertised.

you might merge this with the combine thread.

really like DeAndre Daniel's measurements. Perfect for a 3-D wing. Long wingspan 8'10.5" reach and a 40+% 3pt shooter in college. I think he is a late 1st steal. About 20lbs lighter but similare length to Kawhi Leonard.

Vonleh is bigger then advertised 6'8 in socks means around 6'9.5" in shoes with a 9' reach and over 7'4 wingspan. He can play some center randle can not.

[Who]

Patric Young = 6-10 + almost 7-2 wingspan but only an 8-7 standing reach??

That is like Jeff Green. Good size, great wingspan but lousy standing reach.

[Who]

Glenn Robinson is another one. Almost 6-7 with 6-10 wingspan bu only an 8-5 standing reach. Those seem more like SG measurements than a forward. I don't think he has the offensive game (jump-shooting, ball-handling, passing) to excel at SG. At least not now. Skill-set is more like a forward. Bit of a tweener. That is going to make things harder. More of a multi-year project then?

I think that, since Gordon is such an amazing athlete, I had assumed he was also Kevin-Durant sized. I was surprised to see both he and Randle a bit smaller than I expected.

I really hate the way the coverage is done on ESPN.  These kids are out there competing against each, and they don't even really show them play, and just spend all their time talking about their freaking wing spans.  I can read that on draft express. 

Show me how they look against each other.

Some of these guys might grow a little more.

Vonleh is still in the growing age .  He maybe  near Durrant height in another year. 

Some of these guys are really young

Who are you more surprised by? Who did you think was bigger or smaller?

Randle looks like a good sized PF at 6-9 in shoes, and will be at a slight disadvantage against the elite 6-10 and 6-11 power forwards.

Gordon at a hair shorter would be even more disadvantaged as a PF. Also he is not built like a tank like Randle. Gordon is a hybrid 3/4. He is really going to need to improve his shot if he is going to move full time to small forward.

Pet peeve of mine: i cant add a whole inch and a half to one's height in shoes. Most players gain a single solid inch in shoes. Is Vonleh playing in heels? Or does he load up on inserts on measurement day? I say just call him 6-9. 

I thought Vonleh would measure at 6-7.5 in socks. His is a tough bigger than expected. But not big enough to be a center. His body is more inbetween the range of Elton Brand or Lamar Odom, including wingspan. That's good size for a power forward.

They are killing me on the EsPN combine show....

Parker and Wiggins......awesome. Highlights of their year.
