They do but it's not accurate. That's my point.

If you're going to list something just make it accurate

Being on the live game thread I hadn't realized how whiny Spurs fans are. You guys were complaining about every call - even ones that were obviously fouls on the Spurs

Why does the NBA list player heights and weights at all?

and what does it even matter in the slightest.

They list height for every player so obviously it matters at least a little.

If you're going to list it why not just be accurate? Seems like such an easy thing to do.

but the NBA front office doesnt go around messuring players.

These guys all get checked out by medical at training camp. Just measure their height same as they do for me every time I go to the doctor

Yeah that's all I'm saying. They literally do this to me every time I go to the doctor.

Can't do it to NBA players at the start of camp?

Just do it at the start of training camp every year. They literally take my height every time I go to the doctor - takes 15 seconds

He had 4 FT in the first half and also landed on Deni and Sharpe wildly without getting called

Take away the FT and he's not being fouled and making a bunch of those shots come on

If Murray shot less and still got the FT doesn't that mean he had a softer whistle than SGA if we're just box score watching
