Donte Greene's 'awkwardness' seems to have a lot less to do with his size or athletic ability and a lot more to do with his bball IQ and questionable motor. Also, did either guy grow two inches in their 2nd-3rd year in the league? I know LeBron did, but I don't really remember any others. Maybe its just so common nobody talks about it.

I've been saying he's a short 6'10 to my friends and that the 6'8 listing was BS.
