Rob who would you rank these 3 from tallest to shortest? Dwayne Wade, Bill Skarsgard and Liam Hemsworth
Editor Rob
Tending to think Bill might be tiny bit less than Liam. W
I think Bill and Liam are similar and Wade is touch smaller. Bill looks strong 6’3 and is listed 6’4 on wiki

He looks 2 inch shorter than Anthony Edwards but ANT has his shoulders laying on his so around 1 inch advantage. I'd say 6'2 1/2 and ANT is 6'3 5/8

I wonder where the troll GP, who claims to have met Wade and swore he was as listed (6’3.75) is? Bet he’s MIA now that it’s been proven he never did meet him and that Wade admitted to being 6’3.25”
Canson said on 23/Feb/23
@Jawilder: he should be listed 6’3” here seeing as how he looks shorter than Beal and Beal is 6’3”. At best they’re the same height
Canson said on 23/Feb/23
@JTM: Barkley was never 6’5 to begin with. He only ever measured 6’4 5/8”
Jawilder said on 22/Feb/23
Not over 6’3 at a low.
Jtm said on 18/Feb/23
i knew the 6'3.75 wasn't right. he actually looked closer to 6'2 with barkley a couple day ago since barkley isn't over 6'5 now.
Jawilder said on 25/Jan/23
@Canson Wade could be 6’2.75 honestly. 6’3 would be a perfect listing for him.

very honest claim. if he didnt have had that cliam i would have guessed 191-192.

Either he always been around 6'3 guy. Sometimes he looks under this
Canson said on 23/Sep/22
He’s not 15 cm shorter than LeBron. That’s at most a 10-11 cm difference. Somewhere in that range. May just be 10 but no higher than maybe 10.75-11 if Wade is slightly less than 6’3” say 190 cm
SannaMarinlove said on 3/Sep/22
6ft 3, period.
Almost 15 cms shorter than Lebron James

@Editor Rob: looks at most 6’3” flat next to a slouching Donovan Mitchell. Maybe 6’3.25 was his peak and he’s already dipped to 6’3 or 6’2 7/8 at his low. I doubt that he is more than 6’3” at his afternoon/evening

When Dwyane stood next to the giant Canadian Jerry Sokoloski he holds up quite well.
Click Here
Per google: Sokoloski was measured whilst wearing sneakers with a heel height of 2" on the Canadian morning show Breakfast Television at 7'4".
In another case we can see that a redditor posted a picture of himself with the same giant Sokoloski and he claims to be a six footer but he doesn't hold up as well as Dwyane Wade did. The same Redditor also commented that the giant was 7'7".
Click Here
I post all this evidence and have to ask this? Is there really that much of a visual difference between 6-3 and 6-0 or is the redditor actually under the six mark?

I would say 6’3 flat is prob his low unless he’s lost height.
Max Francis said on 25/Jul/22
I'd say his average height is 190.5cm, seems the same height as Snoop Dogg, also seen him with Idris Elba they looked the same height too.
Canson said on 24/Jul/22
@Leopard: the 6’3.75 was likely an error or it was very early
Morning. He acknowledged himself that he’s 6’3.25. To be honest I can see it being an error possibly as Gabrielle Union, his wife, looked at him funny like he was lying when he said 6’4 at first. He is prob 6’3”
In 2020 he said "Six Four...ok Six Three and a Quarter."

Wade measured 6'3 3/4 he looks 192 cm so probably 6'3 1/2 his lowest.
Canson said on 19/Jun/22
@Shane: maybe he was 6’3.25 in the afternoon during the earlier part of his career but he doesn’t look that tall now
Canson said on 18/Jun/22
@John Rose: I wonder if he’s lost height as well but I think his peak would’ve been 6’3.25” max. He could’ve even been as low as 6’3” flat. He likely got measured near his morning height in 03
John Rose said on 18/Jun/22
He always seemed a bit shorter than the 6'4" he was listed as. 6'3 1/4" sounds about right to me. May have been 3/4" at his height as measured in '03.

Rob, how tall is Jason Williams next to Wade? He's listed 6'1

Can seem near 2 inches there.
Canson said on 28/May/22
@Shane: yea that’s definitely possible. He’s the same age as me and we were actually born the same month January 1982. He may have been the height he claimed 6’3.25 in his prime or 6’3 flat. If he’s lost anything though we’re talking 1/2” or a centimeter perhaps at most
Shane Gray@ said on 27/May/22
@Canson etc: Wade hit the floor hard as much as any player I've ever seen, maybe more than anyone I've seen. So with that considered, it's possible he lost a little height early.
Canson said on 17/Apr/22
@Ice: maybe he has. Maybe the 6’3.25 was his peak and he’s 6’2.75 to 6’3 now. It is strange but I’ve possibly lost a couple mm myself as I used to hold 194 cm at night although I don’t know if it’s because my hair is shorter now. But in the pic with John Legend, Legend is favored by the camera a bit. He’s a bit closer to it than Wade. But with Bradley Beal, Wade looks shorter as well. Beal measuring 6’3 was a bit of a surprise but not really. A friend of mine met him and stood next to him and thought Beal was slightly taller as in half inch maybe. But Beal was in basketball shoes and my friend has lost height being 60 plus years old and was around 60 or 61 when he met him. He was 6’3 or a tiny hair over peak height and 6’2.75 afternoon today or a little under it. He was measuring right around 190 cm when he met him so that means Beal is probably a solid 6’3 guy or maybe a touch over and Wade was shorter
IceCold said on 13/Apr/22
@Canson, could he be already lost height? It could be really strange. But back then, he really looked taller even proportional.
Today he is struggling with 6'3.
With John Legend who many guessed under 5'9 on this site, consedering John's slouching

Canson said on 3/Apr/22
@Ice Cold: it’s interesting. He could’ve been 6’3.25” back then but not sure. I know D Wade had a lot of injuries so it’s possible

@Ice Cold: I’ve never been able to envision him as 6’4”. When I saw commercials with he and Barkley I always saw a major difference but Barkley may have had more footwear. I could see 6’3 best case for Wade. 6’3.25 is too high imho and I wouldn’t be surprised if he is 6’2.75 at times

@Cbrady: lol I said the same as far as 3 or 4 if we add West. As for his height I could see worst case 6’2.75” for him still but maybe 6’3”.
Cbrady said on 1/Nov/21
@ recapa I believe Wade could make the move to 6-2 7/8 at a daily low. Has great proportions to look tall.
3rd best shooting guard ever is a notion I struggle a bit with. Jordan is number one with Kobe in second. I have to put Jerry West at third even though his era was much different than Wade's. West looked great on old films and has the length and speed to be effective in today's game. Wade would be fourth for me.
Canson said on 1/Nov/21
@Reacapa: agreed on both. D Wade is one of my favorite all time players. I have him as 3 or 4. Jerry West May come into play there too with Jordan and Kobe
recapa said on 1/Nov/21
190-190.5 before bed and 192-192.5 .3rd best sg ever imo and the best player to never win mvp.

@JaWilder: agreed! I used to think he was under but he can pull it off imho
Jawilder said on 2/Oct/21
I think you can say he’s the definition of a 6’3 guy. He likely hits the mark dead on at a low.

@JAWilder: that’s precisely where I have Harden. He looks marginally taller than Wade and shorter than Booker (193cm imho) or Kobe (195). I agree with everything you said. I’d give Wade 6’3” too
Jawilder said on 19/Sep/21
@Canson Yeah he doesn’t look any taller than legit 6’3 Bradley Beal. Look
at this picture with Harden, who I think is 6’3.5” as well.

Think that puts D Wade at 6’3 flat?
Kamba said on 19/Sep/21
Wade is 189,5cm
Canson said on 30/Jul/21
I would just give him 6’3”. Truth be told he looks shorter than Bradley Beal and looks it with Kevin Huerter. Huerter is not 6’6.25 at a low. Maybe 6’6 flat at best. Huerter is about 1.5” shorter than an aged Magic meaning maybe just 6’5.75 (6’6.25 could be morning). Then again not sure how much of the “tilt” is really in Magic’s favor? So maybe it’s not 1.5 and 1.25 is more reasonable. I stand by max 6’6 for Huerter. Either way Wade is not taller than Beal

Canson said on 3/Feb/21
@Wingspanpro: I doubt Beal and wade lose an inch. I don’t lose one and I’m 6’4”. In Melo’s case I’ve met him. He’s what he was when drafted as I believe afternoon height for his. Maybe he falls a bit below but not much. As for the waking early I doubt they practice before being measured as they know it will affect it. I have Beal slightly taller than Wade based on the pic. If using Beal’s as a morning I’d say 6’3.5 out of bed 6’2.75 but judging by people who’ve met Beal he can look 6’3 in person. Then again with Troy Brown he looks under. Wade looks under the Mark imho. I’ve also met Butler and that is his afternoon height. He was an inch taller than me or thereabouts. He isn’t 6’4.5” he’s not under 6’5”. 2002 was likely an afternoon measurement as Amare Stoudemire was not less than 6’8.5 either
I would give both Beal and Wade 6’3” flat. Both could go under but I doubt either guy is over.
Wingspanpro said on 2/Feb/21
@Rob
@Canson You are a smart man. You know that the angle of a photo has extremely much value.
Also, a measurement at the draft combine is not always the morning size because the player might be awake since 4am and would go for example to practice ans the measurement is 7 h later, or even he flew from somewhere and didn't sleep at all during the night.

I wonder if Wade experienced any premature height loss due to his injuries? I do feel when he was a rookie and early in his career he looked like what he was measured in the draft 6'3.75", he looked about an inch only shorter than Kobe
Click Here Click Here
Late in his career and now he does looker close to a lower 6'3".
Canson said on 2/Dec/20
@Recapa: Lebron looks minimum a solid 4” taller if not more. If Lebron is 6’7 flat which he looks 6’3 flat or even a hair under. 6’3 is a better listing for Wade than 6’3.25”
Click Here
Canson said on 2/Dec/20
@Recapa: I wonder how too. I’ll tell you this much. His 6’3 looks shaky next to Bradley Beal who is also listed 6’3” now. If anything, I’d give Beal the 1/4” over and not him. I suspected Wade was actually a fraction under up until about a year ago
recapa said on 2/Dec/20
6ft3 flat for wade he looks small in court .i dunno how he he got 6ft4.75 in shoes in the draft peak .
Canson said on 21/Nov/20
@RJT: yea Wade looks too small to be 6’3.25”. Erik Spoelstra and Otis Smith wouldn’t call him 6’4 on a good day if he could measure near it earlier in the day. I could buy 6’3 flat being he’d be 6’3.25 2-3 hours out of bed. He also looked only slightly taller than Jason Kidd who was about 189cm range

Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 26/Oct/20
@Canson Atually Ray Allen often look an inch on Wade. People who met Ray claim the version were usually 6'3 3/4-6'4 1/2, the lowest side could just be his posture wasn't ready and the tallest is the guessing is footwear advantage over the people who met him. Ray look alot like a decent 6'4 low guy than below it but going with listing if Ray get a listing by Rob should be given 6'4 1/4 matching Wade at 6'3 1/4.
Canson said on 8/Oct/20
Out of bed 192.4, afternoon height 190.5
Canson said on 4/Oct/20
@Junior: but dissecting the picture it’s easy to tell. I would look right at their heads and Wade is well below Lewis’s forehead. Then Ray Allen is taller than Wade and Ray looked under 6’4” next to Lewis too. My guess is ray 192-193 range and Wade 190-191.

Wiles, he was measured near 6 ft 4 in the morning.
I’m not even so sure that was a morning measurement. Carmelo looks his measured height. Maybe it was a mid morning or something. Now Kirk Hinrich looked maybe a 1/4” lower in person and TJ Ford’s was off. He’s 5’10” not 5’11”. But all of That makes me question the validity of the measurements. I have Wade having measured in a shoe. Look at JJ Redick. He was alleged 6’4” barefoot now he’s listed at 6’3” under the new measurements
FriedChicken said on 27/Sep/20
Wiles, he was measured near 6 ft 4 in the morning.
Canson said on 26/Aug/20
@RJT: LOL! Yea he may have used lifts. I heard on a forum elsewhere that he measured in a low cut shoe. One of my former coaches met him and said he’s 6’3” tops. He suggested weak 6’3” but I could buy a full 6’3” perhaps. But Even for measurements before 2009, it’s not a guarantee that it’s always afternoon. I’m sure they occurred at different times but even in the afternoon some guys know what’s up, LOL. They know measuring after lying down increases height. I used to hear people say that years ago and didn’t believe it. I didn’t fully believe it varied 3/4” for me until I came here and even then I had to really perfect the measurement over the last 5 years. I used to always think I was 6’4 1/2” and would claim it. Also I claimed my average which was 6’4.5-.75 but average is no good being height loss isn’t linear. Turns out I’m 6’4.25 lol

Why do "we" not believe the the official NBA combine measurement? Because it was in the morning? I wonder how tall Canson would claim I am since I always seem to measure 6'4.5".
Well the site is based on afternoon heights. Rob has only said that so many times. Most people here use their afternoon heights. But as far as believing the measurements? Did you believe JJ Redick measured 6’4” flat and 6’4.75”? He’s only listed at 6’3” now so unless he shrunk an inch in his early to mid 30s which I doubt. He likely had a shoe measurement in the wrong column.

@QM6’1QM: Agreed. I always wonder with those Team pics being the camera could be off but in this case you guessed it pretty well. I think that’s about where both guys would fall. I wonder if Rondo May actually be, say, 183.5 and Wade 190.5 or 183 and 191 perhaps. I struggle to see Wade over 190.5 though if going off afternoon heights. I honestly believe that 6’3.25” was likely an earlier In the day measurement

Canson said on 14/May/20
@5.9 legit guy: I can see Wade measuring 6’3.25 as well but not at a low. I see 6’3” being the max. I was an advocate for 6’2.75” before but maybe he is the full 6’3”. 6’3.75 imho is debatable for the early morning combine measurement or even out of bed. If he is the full 6’3 afternoon then 6’3.75 would be out of bed

@Canson We can consider Wade posture isn't great at times he does look 6'2 range when standing loose but the more i check on him i see a strong 6'3 sometimes and 6'3 flat a low really hard buying just 189-190cm. Kobe head was smaller it could be this issue that put into the impression of easy 2" below Kobe but when measure it could be more 1.75" range between them.
Canson said on 3/May/20
@Junior: I’ve seen occasions where it looks more than a solid 3”. Melo could be as tall as Rob lists him honestly or he could be between the two. I would give Wade 6’3”. I doubt he is taller though being Kobe looked 2” taller

@Canson Wade always look solid 3" inch below Carmelo. Since Melo could be more 6'6 you met him in real then Wade def isn't below 6'3. 6'2.8" was a bit too low.
Canson said on 18/Apr/20
@Dillon: I don’t think there is much more than 3” Between them in the collection of pics. If by 3.5 you mean, yes. If Melo is 6’6.25 which is a good possibility, I could see 3.5 perhaps. 3.75 is remote but that would mean Wade could be 6’2.5. I doubt he’s that low. I have him at about 190cm 6’2.8ish. But If Melo is only 6’6” maybe only 3. I’m using extremes for both, having seen Melo and him looking 198-199 range and Wade in my estimation in pics and from third party encounters being a weak 6’3 or maybe a full 6’3” next to others. I truly believe that Gabrielle knew he wasn’t 6’4 barefoot or that she has measured him barefoot at some point, or that the measurement he received before he was drafted was really 6’3.25.
Andrea said on 17/Apr/20
Great adjustment! Always looked closer to 6'3 than 6'4, so I'm glad he came out with such a claim, giving Rob a good reason to finally list him at that.
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 16/Apr/20
He finally came out an honest claim. 6'4 3/4 drafted height def was a tilt up head measurement in the morning and holding close to 6'3 1/4. There were still tons of celebrities given 1/4-1/2 too high from Rob. /Like wise Kobe look legit 6'5 compare to 6'5 claim actors yet but he isn't and no way Barkley and Jordan was even a 1/8 taller than the Mamba. The first time Wade throw out the most honest claim.
Dillon said on 15/Apr/20
@Canson That picture looks like 6 inches between Wade and Carmelo. Doesn’t fit 6’3” vs 6’6”. Wade’s eyes barely come above Carmelo’s shoulder level. Yet Carmelo is not 6’9” so that’s really strange. Height can be hard to figure out sometimes. I know camera angle factors in and everything, but clearly Carmelo is more than 3 inches taller than Wade. I can almost guarantee their measurements are over 3 inches apart.
Canson said on 13/Apr/20
@Dillon and Rob:
Sounds like Gabrielle didn’t believe he was really 6’4”. You saw the reaction when he said he was 6’4”. I honestly believe the 6’3.25 is a measurement earlier In the day. He’s probably 6’3 max afternoon height or maybe slightly less
Click Here
Editor Rob
He might have got a recent measurement at 6ft 3.25, so he at least came out with it after the 6ft 4 claim!
Canson said on 12/Apr/20
Good downgrade for Wade. What’s funny is people claiming they met him before saying he was close to 6’4”. It’s likelier that he falls to the solid 6’3”
Dillon said on 10/Apr/20
@Canson Wade said he was 6’4 when asked by his wife “How tall are you really?”. Then when prodded further by her said “6’3 and a quarter”. Search “ Dwyane Wade reveals what he thinks about some of the current stars in the NBA” on YouTube. Wasn’t able to copy and paste link sorry.

Canson said on 29/Mar/20
@Viper: Oh I thought you said you were 6’4 Or more out of bed once. so you don’t lose much height if that’s the case. You only lose about 1/2” a day. The average person your size would lose 3/4” throughout a day.
viper said on 26/Mar/20
I only measured 6-3.75 that one time when I was sick in bed for over 24 hours.
I'm always 6-3.5 out of bed. 6-3.25 midday then flat 6-3 at night. On some rare occasions down to 6-2.75 If I'm on my feet from early morning till late at night which is rare.
Canson said on 24/Mar/20
@Viper: I thought you mentioned before that you were 6’3 flat at a low before and were closer to 6’4” when you woke up
viper said on 23/Mar/20
I'm usually 6-3.5 out of bed
Canson said on 21/Mar/20
@Junior: I think I agree with you. Maybe a lunchtime 6’3 1/8 or 1/4 and he falls to 6’3” flat. He could be identical with Viper or 1/8” taller. Viper mentioned he’s 6’3.75 out of bed and 6’3” flat at a low and 6’3 1/8” midday. Wade’s 6’3.25 at a low fits a 6’3.75 morning measurement but at times he doesn’t look that. He actually looks Slightly shorter than Bradley Beal who is around 6’3 himself

@Junior: Wade can look over 2” taller to be honest. Mitchell May be 6’0.75 afternoon height if he measured 6’1.25 in the morning. With Wade and Ray Allen, I would say 190.5 and 192.5 afternoon. I guessed about 2cm perhaps
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 7/Mar/20
@Canson From that post Wade look 1cm lower than Ray Allen but i do think it's more on the 1.5cm or 2cm in reality.
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 7/Mar/20
Donovan is much closer to picture. Lol.
Click Here How about this angle Wade look close to 6'5 1/2 with 6'1 Donovan Mitchell.
Canson said on 21/Feb/20
@Junior: the confusion came from Speight’s previous combine only being 6’5.25”. He looked taller than that just in his physique. I’d say he’s probably solid 6’6 range afternoon 6’6 1/8 maybe and 6’6.25 lunchtime. I guess we could argue 6’6.25 for him and 6’3.25 if that’s the case. I still would say he and Wade are closer to solid at a low but 6’3.25 is much better than 6’3.5
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 20/Feb/20
@Canson Yes i remember some details of the comments. I did say Wade is strong 6'3 and Wilton Speight strong 6'6 guy. Also if you recall Wade with Michael Strahan stand side by side that clip prove to be strong 1/2 between them maybe Wade shoes is 1/4 thick so 3/4" that makes Strahan 6'4 and Wade close to 6'3 1/4.
Canson said on 17/Feb/20
@Junior: I saw something interesting. You remember maybe a year or two ago we had pics of Wilton Speight with Wade and everyone assumed it was either less difference than it was due to Wade’s purported height Or that Wade was significantly less than he is billed. I remember you commented on it with me. Turns out Speight measured 6’6 5/8 at the combine. He was billed 6’5.25 initially. Now I’ve seen stranger things where Viper pointed out with some players and so did I but if true it would probably put Speigt at 6’6 1/8 for an afternoon height and 6’6.25 lunchtime. He could be possibly as low as 6’6 flat but 6’6.25 is fair I think at that size for lunchtime. But It’s not totally surprising being Speight looked too tall in the pic to only be 6’5. He looked 6’6 really at least proportionately. So that prob is a 3” difference with them minimum. 6’3.25 would prob be ok for a lunchtime for Wade. I think the solid 6’3 afternoon but that’s only about 1/8” higher than his lunchtime at that. I guess there is a chance at 6’3.25 afternoon but Kobe has some significant height in pics and at the all star game he could look around that. But 6’3.25 is a better listing than what he has I agree and now we know why he appeared that much shorter than Speight in the pic. The pic was some time in 2018 I think. I know you Christian Rising and a few others along with me all commented

6’5 Kobe looks 2 inches taller than him imo
Canson said on 16/Feb/20
@Junior: I have seen 1” at times but 0.5 at other times. But last night on the All star festivities Wade looked max 6’3 next to Candice Parker or Common or Scottie Pippen. Of course we didn’t see footwear. I’m torn on Russ. Russ could be a minimum 6’2 at a low but I lean more toward 6’2.25” like his pre draft. I’m not sold on 6’2.5 simply because harden has 3cm minimum and Harden looks equal to that with Kobe and prob an inch less than Barkley. Seeing Russ with Carmelo Anthony or Paul George or Caron Butler 6’2.25 is believable. I used to think Wade May be weak 6’3”. I can give him the full 6’3 for afternoon.
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 15/Feb/20
Strange thing is that on the court Wade really had an inch on Russell Westbrook when standing side by side that is what i remember i have seen it. If Wade low is 6'3 then i wouldn't go above 6'2 for Westbrook and J Lin is probably 6'1 1/2.
Canson said on 9/Feb/20
Bradley Beal was only measured around 6’3” this season and Wade is not taller than him. Quite possible Beal didn’t grow from his pre draft and is 6’3.25 in the morning. Best case is he’s 6’3 afternoon height otherwise he’d have a 6’4” listing. Wade is overlisted. 6’3” max
Click Here
Canson said on 9/Feb/20
@Junior: that may be ok for a lunchtime. I would say 6’3 1/8” though. I’m still iffy if he is 6’3” based on people’s encounters with him where they say he didn’t even look 6’3” but it’s better than 6’3.5 because that’s obvious
Canson said on 7/Feb/20
@Junior: I’d say 6’3” is max he is
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 6/Feb/20
I think it's acceptable to downgrade Wade to 6'3 1/4.

@TXNA: max 6’4”. Looks 6’3.75 with Rashard Lewis

Canson said on 20/Nov/19
@Viper: maybe the way the pic was taken. MCD always struck me as an honest 6’4” at least in his prime. Wade max 6’3”. It wouldn’t surprise me if you and Wade measured and you were slightly taller as he looks a weak 6’3” more often than not
viper said on 13/Nov/19
Duncan is 6-3 IMO
Dwayne does look 6-4 with him.

@Junior: Butler definitely looked 6’5” in person. The more I see, Wade does look the full 6’3” often enough that I’ll give him that. He isn’t any taller though. Butler has a good 2” on him in pics

Picture is tilt down from Wade side. Check on the background advertisement bench and the floor. It's not comparable for height. Wade is def strong 6'3 a chance. Caron Butler i'm not too sure is he 6'5 a low or not. But the picture like this
Click Here it makes 4" in height difference when it tilting down from Wade's side. I had a picture like this taken from my mom which i strangely look 6'3 with my 6'4 3/4 brother high school grad photo a decades back which he was already 6'4 3/4 back there and i'm still the same as now.

As far as the pics with Butler they are no good due to the angle at which they are taken. If you look at my pics or in game they’re not close in height. Butler is at least 2” taller. As far as the estimate 6’3.75 morning and 6’3 at night is possible. I would say 6’3.5 and 6’2.75. I don’t lose an inch at 6’4” so I doubt Wade being an inch or inch and a half shorter would.

@Nik: I know of people who’ve met him and their estimates align with Lebron’s estimate of at most 6’3”. One of them is 6’2” and he said Wade didn’t even look a full inch taller. And while no one is perfect he’s also met Carmelo Anthony as I have and his estimate was the same as mine even though we met at different times. Wade is not just an inch shorter than Barkley at his peak. Barkley was about a 6’4.5 afternoon guy peak give or take 1/8”
Nik said on 1/Nov/19
@ Canson - That's very interesting!
Canson said on 21/Oct/19
@Junior: 6’3” is the absolute most I could buy for Wade
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 16/Oct/19
@Canson It is confirm that Reeve Carney is 182.5cm max with 173cm low editor Rob. Reeve look 8cm shorter than Wade both in similar posture and shoes so 6'3 is most likely his low. 6'3 3/4 measurement was
Busting a Gut we could rule out and about 6'3 1/2 his real draft measurement came down to lowest 6'3.
Canson said on 14/Oct/19
@Junior: morning yes. But at a low 6’3” is best case imho
Canson said on 14/Oct/19
@Junior: I think 6’3.5-.75 is possible out of bed for him. Maybe just 6’3.5” not sure. 6’3” low is the absolute max
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 14/Oct/19
@Canson Rose could be at his worst case flat 185cm.
viper said on 14/Oct/19
Lol Wade would have measured 6-4.5, upgraded to 6-5
Canson said on 13/Oct/19
@Junior: To be honest I couldn’t see Rose below 6’1” flat. But then I see him with Melo and it can look 5+
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 12/Oct/19
@Canson But 6'3 1/4 is still happening in the morning for Wade. I could have say 6'3 & 3/4 would be out of bed for Wade.
Canson said on 11/Oct/19
@Rob: 6’3” is the highest I would argue for Wade
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 10/Oct/19
Rob, Check on this picture again
Click Here Wade with 6'0 listed Reeve Carney who is more on a 182.5cm low in person and there is only solid 8cm between them. I start to get the point of 6'3 from Canson. Derrick Rose old estimation from Canson and i had him at 6'0 3/4-6'1 and you have given Rose down to 6'1 now, there isn't 2.5" between Wade and Rose to be concern and Lebron always taller than Wade by 4". I think a downgrade for Wade at 6'3 1/4 (mid day height) wasn't unfair to him since J lin, Derrick Rose all got down by 1/4-1/2 for a good reason.
Editor Rob
6ft 3.25 would be the lowest I feel I would argue.

@Canson
As much as I agree with many of your estimates, even you and I had differing opinions on some things at one point or another, but we've never gotten into any arguments or anything like that.
Canson said on 10/Sep/19
@Christian: well said! I could say that I agree with “some” of all three of their estimates. Then again as you’ve seen, I’ve also disagreed with both Sotiris and Viper. Sotiris is relatively new but he is, overall, pleasant as a poster. Viper as well, I’ve never had an issue with and he has always been pleasant to interact with for both of us especially being he’s been around longer than we have. But I can throw Rising in the mix. I haven’t always agreed with Rising’s estimates but he does have character for sure and I respect him very much. Rising actually does provide very good estimates though too and he’s been remarkably accurate on a lot. And even disagreeing with some our estimates are usually maybe half inch off. I’ve also noticed that other posters who really do not have “decent character” suddenly do when they argue with certain posters whom someone else may dislike no matter how true it is, the “someone else” is always wrong
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 10/Sep/19
@Canson
I agree. It's more about the character and personality of the individual, rather than how much or how often he "upgrades" or "downgrades" celebs, that I have an issue with. Believe it or not, I probably agree with more of Andrea's estimates (other than Kodjoe and Merriman obviously) than I do with Sotiris' or Viper's estimates, but at least the latter two have decent character and admit when they think they're wrong or made a mistake, as well as tolerant towards differing opinions. I don't care if a poster agrees with 100% of all my estimates, if he's nasty and hostile towards people and thinks he's a know-it-all, I'll call him out on it.

@canson thats fully fine for you to believe and I respect your estimate because I wont lie wade has looked that short at times what I will say though like christian said some pics are deceptive and wade doesnt look as if he has erect posture like a lot of other players about viper ive never spoken to him personally as i havent even been on this site as a poster for 2 months but from my year of lurking here he seems to want to be the poster with shock value by posting the absolute lowest estimates possible that can still have a chance to happen and his reasoning is usually because they looked that short once. some of his estimates I couldnt tell if he was
trolling or not but I gave the benefit of the doubt and looked at the person because maybe viper could be right. tom welling and padalecki (who im starting to think is 6'3.75" honestly) he said were 6'1" arguably 6'0" and padalecki 6'2-3 I think he implied the rock was 6'0-1 etc. as you know im excited to find out someone is nowhere near as tall as listed as even some of my estimates are lower than yours and in certain cases vipers but there comes a point where it becomes frankly ludicrous what your saying. you even as someone who is a fan of viper still think most of his estimates are a good half inch to low like ryan reynolds. viper isnt an a****** or anything like that Ill be frank andrea can fall more in line with that at times however viper is ridiculous and almost as bad as that old poster charlie who we can agree was stupid
@Questioner: that’s because I’ve never had a problem with Viper here as a poster. Like Christian said, he doesn’t come across as a know it all to me. He never has. But some posters on this site arr Political and know more “height” than everyone else. There’s several. As far as V’s estimates, I actually also don’t agree with all of them. You mentioned Padalecki. 6’4” imho and no less. He is one of the clearest cut 6’4”s here imho. But maybe I’m wrong and he does fall to 6’3.75” like you said. That honestly wouldn’t surprise me since it’s so close. Rob mentioned to me on Momoa’s page that he may go under (which I suspect) and that the two are similar although I get the taller impression from Padalecki maybe based on proportions. As far as Viper’s estimate on Reynolds, is that really an inch too low? Reynolds said he was 6’1/6’2” himself. Yea it’s very possible that he is 6’2” but also that he’s 6’1.5-.75 as he looked 2” taller than Denzel who is listed 5’11.75” and possibly is shorter. So 6’1 flat or even 6’1.25” while I agree it’s too low, isn’t such a bad estimate since he has a possibility of falling into the “6’1 range” albeit the higher end of it. But while we are on that topic, Junior estimates him to be 6’2.5”. That’s not any different than the 6’1” estimate Viper provided. He’s not that tall either. He’s clearly not more than 2” on Denzel. And he would have more footwear if anything. Something I always remember, Rising Force, another long time reputable poster here (who is impartial) said it once about Viper that he was the one who guessed Paul walker to be 6’1”. Then Walker admitted to 6’1” via a claim and this is after 6’2” and 6’3” claims. Rising’s message was that sometimes the unpopular vote is the right one. As far as Charlie, I don’t remember him much. As far as “as bad” or as “good”, you have some posters who inflate people beyond what their morning height was on their pre draft, as Christian has also mentioned and some who always inflate celebs. That’s no different than the estimates that you’re referring to that Viper provides. As bad can mean too low or egregiously high but in the end it’s opinion based. When no pictures or comparative tools are being used in low and egregiously high estimates, I feel that the assessment is baseless. Viper uses pics whether we feel that they are good or bad and he also used what Walker said. Some just accepted a listed height for some athletes and that is automatically how tall they are.

@canson I moreso said its at least 1.5cm Id lean more towards 2 though upon closer inspection its probably not a full inch. I dont think wades above 3.25 and is listed to high here on the same token hes not under 6'3" from everything ive seen I think 6'3 1/8" is a very liable listing but hey I could be wrong at least your not viper who automatically assumes hes right
@Questioner: and you could be right with a hair over. In the end, everything here is an estimate and an educated guess. None of us is even going to be right esp to the mm. As for Viper, I’ve known him here for four years and I’ve never gotten that impression on him unless he has met someone in person like Merriman. He feels strongly about him being 6’1.5-6’2” so maybe that’s what he saw. I’ve personally never had an issue with Viper though. I go with sub 6’3” or up to 6’3” based on how he looks and how he appears to people who have met him in person. One of which has spent considerable time around the league and said at 6’2” that Wade was 1/2”-1” taller than he was in the encounters he’s had with him.

@Questioner: I agree with both of you about Kloss. While both of them have relaxed posture, I would say I’d only see the difference 1-1.5 cm. I’ve always said Wade was max 6’3”. 6’2 seems too low but something like 190cm would fit if 6’2.5 is too low. I still see him as up to 2cm shorter than Harden (no less than 1/2”) and Harden is at most 6’3.5”

If Wade's any taller, it's no more than by 1cm max. Karlie's head's tilted down, which makes her hairline look lower. Plus she's standing looser than Wade.
Questioner said on 27/Aug/19
@christian as a guy who actually agrees karlie is 6'1" flat I literally linked that pic earlier to canson to show hes not under 6'3"... im not going into photoshop but he looks near an inch taller there if you not only look at eye level but more importantly the top of their heads it looks more even than it is because karlie has a bit of hair there

@Questioner
Wade looks around 6'2.5" in the pic
Click Here Karlie Kloss is wearing heels that are maybe 1"-1.5" thicker than Wade's shoes, yet he's no taller. And that's going by Karlie's 6'1.5" listing, which is a bit high IMO. She could be more 6'1" flat.

@canson yes and im saying I dont agree with your estimate or your estimate on the difference between wade and harden it looks more like a cm to a bit over I guess I cant rule out half an inch but I think its absolute tops between them and really only .25-3/8 imo also harden wears suspect footwear to me even for nba standards while wades usually seems fairly modest but thats a topic for another time

@Questioner: Beal is possibly 6’3.5”. I have a 6’3” friend (6’2 7/8 at a low) who met him a couple years ago and said he looked slightly taller. Not sure if he was still the full 6’3” when he met him tho because he’s almost 61 years old now. But Justice Winslow looks 6’4” with Commissioner Silver too and has 1” on D Wade
Canson said on 23/Aug/19
@Questioner: I don’t rule 6’3” out. But I can see 6’2.5 no lower. Look at him with Harden and he looks max 190 cm. That’s about 2cm and harden I doubt is over 6’3.5. That’s 191.77
Questioner said on 22/Aug/19
@canson unless wades a lift wearer I doubt hes under 6'3" after seeing this pic
Click Here
he still looks around an inch taller there
Canson said on 22/Aug/19
@Questioner: I apologize to you as I didn’t interpret or say it properly. He always look at what someone says relative to someone else’s height with an inflation vs lowering it. Nobody is going to lower someone’s barefoot height in reality. And for Wade I believe Lebron was highlighting his accomplishments by showing he’s at most 6’3”
Questioner said on 20/Aug/19
@canson when I said stop using I dont mean in a literal term or in an offensive manner I was saying to stop using it incorrectly because it might discredit you and I would prefer not writing a good hearted discussion with someone who seems fairly knowledgeable on this topic and also with a good 80% of opinions I agree with (its you by the way in case that wasnt clear). you have much stronger evidence for your argument than what lebron says the same lebron who says russel is 100% at least 6'4" and might be 5. I dont want to become another andrea talking about angles as well as the fact that I dont have access to photoshop currently to draw lines and reshape images to show you in an objective point that at least the first pic you sent has a weirdly side ways point of view what I will say though. I have no idea why you think im arguing for 6'3.75" maybe thats the discrepancy in our confusion arised. I will say though your other 2 pics are actually good and thats the best evidence I have seen for wade under 6'3" I will say rob has him to high and I only think hes 6'3.25" with a high chance for the flat 6'3" I just dont agree that a few pics even very good ones support something like 6'2.75" I wont rule it uncompared to someone like andrea. I just doubt it and I dont want to turn this into a picture war showing pics where wade does look over 6'3" (and im someone who agrees with you that blake griffin isnt even 6'8" at a low) I wish you didnt have to take offense to what I said because I thought I was a fairly good poster here seems I was wrong.
Questioner said on 16/Aug/19
@canson im sorry dude but in the pic where harden looks a solid 2cm the camera is tilted in his favor theres 3/8s of an inch tops between them. also stop using lebron as a way to propagate that they are significantly shorter once im 3.5+ inches taller than someone they look short to me maybe that happened with lebron
Canson said on 7/Aug/19
@Junior: I still have John Starks at 6’2 or near it Peak height. maybe today he’s 6’1.5 or something. Melo I’ve never ruled out the full 6’6.25 or between 6’6-6’6.25. Starks may have shrunken
Canson said on 7/Aug/19
@Junior: I still have John Starks at 6’2 or near it. Peak height 6’2” maybe today 6’1.5 or something. Melo I’ve never ruled out the full 6’6.25 or between 6’6-6’6.25
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 6/Aug/19
Canson,
Click Here John Starks really isn't as tall as you think. 6'1 is the best is Carmelo a low is 6'6.
Canson said on 4/Aug/19
@Christian: the tallest that I’ve known is Ben Simmons. He’s 6’10 listed and around 6’8.5 (maybe) barefoot or maybe a bit less. Magic was 6’9” listed and 6’7” and a bit barefoot at his peak. I agree on Wade. That’s still a bad listing for him but Rob went off the pre draft and it’s a lot like Merriman but the pics with Wade often aren’t very good ones from what I’ve seen. It’s always a pic where you can’t see the real difference such as with Kobe and it’s always someone advocating for the listing Rob gives them that will say what they think Rob wants to hear when Rob encourages different views
Canson said on 4/Aug/19
@Junior: Melo has a footwear advantage on Starks there. Even without it’s not 5”. Maybe 4.5. Take the advantage away and maybe some camera and it’s probably 4 or 4.25. Now Starks May have lost height today and be weak 6’2” perhaps but I’ve never ruled out Melo being over 6’6”. He could be as tall as Rob lists him or anywhere in between the two. A peak john Starks though was likely a full 6’2”. He never looked less than that. In the pic Starks isn’t 5” shorter. He’s further away though
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 4/Aug/19
6'3.5" is an improvement from the former 6'3.75" listing, but it's still not enough.
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 3/Aug/19
@Canson
I'm not as knowledgable as you guys when it comes to basketball players, but who's the tallest point guard you know besides Magic, as well as the shortest center?
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 2/Aug/19
@Canson John Starks is probably 185cm nothing up not 6'2, Carmelo lower eye lid is a fraction over top of his head
Click Here
Canson said on 31/Jul/19
@Viper: what Junior said tho, think about it, Justice Winslow is 6’4” and is a small forward. Draymond is 6’5” and a power forward. I don’t see why especially when Dion Waiters is 6’2” shooting guard that Wade can’t be a shooting guard since he’s taller than Waiters. I mentioned the heights I did because we know for a fact that Winslow Draymond and Waiters that they were all early morning heights, anything after 2009. Many before 09 were as well but we know for sure 09 and later per the article that I posted. I don’t know if Wade was because Carmelo Anthony and Keith Bogans both looked close to their pre drafts (2003) and Jarrett Jack isn’t significantly off his (probably 6’2.25) which is understandable if he were rounded. I have Jack by 2” and Melo has close to 2” on me Bogans and I are close in height. He may be slightly shorter but I haven’t seen him in years to where I stood right next to him to accurately gauge. He’s not less than 6’4” is where I’ll leave it and 6’4.25 is possible. Then another example of a player I played against in high school is Damian Wilkins who measured 6’4.5 at the combine but when he went overseas he only measured 6’4” flat. Wilkins I felt was not quite that. I was 6’4” flat then and we were identical. Then David Hawkins shows something like 6’4.5 or .75 and I always felt he was shorter than me in person. half inch or so or maybe just his build. But Wade does not look 6’3.75 with Justice Winslow. He looks probably about 3cm shorter on average. Some pics it’s 2” some it’s an inch. Others 1.5 maybe
Canson said on 31/Jul/19
@Viper: A lot of basketball players have been sub 6’3” barefoot that have played the 2. John Starks and Dion Waiters are just a couple but even Victor Oladipo is likely a weak 6’3” guy. Not to mention Ben Gordon who was barely 6’1”. And we forget that Wade had Eddie Jones his first year in Miami so he was a point guard then
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 31/Jul/19
Yah i'm
trolling out from closet just like you did make me laugh a 6'1 The Rock,6'1 Will Ferrell, 6'1 1/2 Merriman and 5'10 Nicolas Cage.. IYO. Lol.
Canson said on 30/Jul/19
@Junior: it’s not out of the question because other 2 guards In the league are even shorter than he is. Dion Waiters only measured 6’2.5 meaning he’s 6’2” more than likely. Wade can look under 6’3” very regularly including the pic with 6’4” Justice Winslow
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 29/Jul/19
Wade is not under 6'3 with Kobe,Barkley and Lebron. Weak 6'3 is out of the category for a good shooting guard like him.
Shane Gray said on 27/Jul/19
@Canson in regard to Winslow and Wade, what I'm specifically trying to say is Winslow looks dramatically taller. I agree with you that Wade's combine measurement is off. But Winslow measured 6'4 1/2" early in day barefoot. He makes Wade look around 6'1" tops or even lower and we know Wade is taller than that. Winslow is a tiny bit closer to camera perhaps but minimally so. Just an odd photo in my opinion.
Canson said on 18/Jul/19
@Shane: lol my bad. That’s me using both. He looks taller because Wade isn’t as tall as he is listed. Wade is a weak 6’3” at a low (6’2.5-6’3 range). He may be 6’3.5 out of bed perhaps but I doubt higher than that. He doesn’t look as tall as Harden who measures 6’4” in the morning (assuming it’s full and not rounded up).
Shane Gray said on 17/Jul/19
@Canson how on earth did Winslow manage to look massively taller than Wade in that photo? I mean Winslow looks to have a minimum of 3 inches on Wade.
Shane Gray said on 17/Jul/19
Would it be possible for people who use inches below to use inches in their entire discussion? Many of us have to google cm to inches each time you guys switch back to cm. Not trying to be mean I get it but it's really tiresome to have to plug the numbers in and translate them over and over.
Canson said on 11/Jul/19
@Junior: that’s more than 1.5” between Kobe and Wade. That’s 2” at times with them. Kobe is taller than Barkley is. I think with Strahan and Wade it was the angle of the camera and not easy to tell.
viper said on 11/Jul/19
Cmillz most of the time it is 6-3.5
Canson said on 8/Jul/19
@Junior: it’s virtually impossible with what I’ve seen in the pictures. Maybe 6’3” flat
cmillzz said on 8/Jul/19
@viper
6’3.75 out of bed? Didn’t realize your morning height was that high. Thought it was more 6’3.5.
Canson said on 1/Jul/19
@Junior: my money would be on Barkley being under 6’4 5/8 today. He has had hip replacements, has bad knees etc and he’s 56 years old. He may still be Over 6’4” which i believe he is. I have Charles at around 194 if he stands straight. But I still have Wade max 190.5 maybe 190 is worst case. 191 seems too high for him all things considered
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 30/Jun/19
@Canson 0:04-0:05 Barkley big head is closer to camera angle. Look to be max 1.5" not max 2". You can have him 6'3 but i'm not sure if Barkley wear boots type of leathers shoes or not sometimes he wear it to soem talk show when he siited down it can be view more like some 3.5cm thickness. Wade i still think like the old time strongly feel he dip into 191cm and Barkley not under 6'4 5/8 yet but thinking with 1/4 more shoes he easily can look 2" plus taller than Wade if camera close up angle didn't help Wade.
Canson said on 29/Jun/19
Fast forward to 0:04-0:05 and Barkley is at least 1.5” taller than Wade. Max 2” min 1.5”. This is an aged Barkley not Barkley in his peak when he measured 6’4 5/8

Canson said on 29/Jun/19
Here’s another pic with Wade and Lebron. Wade doesn’t even look 6’3” here
Click Here
Canson said on 26/Jun/19
@Junior: Harden is also at least half inch taller than Wade if not 2cm. A morning measured 6’4” Harden is 6’3.5 at a low.
Canson said on 21/Jun/19
@Viper: in some pics, Wade is the same height as Waiters but then I saw one of them where he looks about 1/2” to 2cm taller. Waiters is around 6’2 if he measured 6’2.5 in the morning while Wade is 6’2.5-6’3 like he always looks. He’s around your height. He looks 2” shorter than Kobe
Canson said on 21/Jun/19
@Viper: but if you read the article, it will tell you that all players measured at least 1/2” taller in 2009 than in 2008 because 2008 was an afternoon measurement and 2009 was early morning. All three of those North Carolina guys did Danny Green Ty Lawson and Ellington. I suspect that morning measurements were the norm since 2009 and that even before that you have guys like Kevin Love who were measured equivalent to a morning height (not on feet) etc. I’ve heard stories of guys being carried in instead of walking just to maintain height. Also don’t know about
lifts in socks or padding since Love is only said to be 6’7” and he looks the same height as Lebron. Love was close to 2” taller as was carlos boozer when they measured in shoes. Kurt Rambis said that Boozer is closer to 6’7 than 6’9”. Not sure tho because I think 6’7” and change myself but that’s closer to 6’7 than 6’9” still. The last link at the bottom is of someone else who met Love and said the same thing Majerle said about him. He also looks 6’7 with Bosh and Noah but backtrack to Ellington. The 6’3.75 assuming it’s not rounded up, is his afternoon height.

Wade with a 6’4.5 morning measured Justice Winslow and a 6’2.5 morning measured Dion Waiters.
Wade is not 6’3.5 let’s get real. He’s not significantly taller than Waiters. He’s 6’2.75 barefoot

Ellington measured both 6-3.75 and
6-4.25 which is interesting
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 16/Jun/19
Click Here 0:49 and 1:29 heels on shoes can be seen no much differences than 1/8th inch between two of them and 6:03 best comparison of 6'4 1/4 Michael Strahan dead on 1/2" taller than Wade. Probably Strahan is really 6'4 a low and Wade is 6'3 1/2 a low or 6'3 3/8. I do think Strahan needs a downgrade at 6'4 if Wade now listed fairly at 6'3 1/2.
Canson said on 16/Jun/19
@Rob: 6’3.5 is still too high given Harden and Beal are both taller than he is. Harden is def a morning height and Beal was buy may have grown. Wade doesn’t look anything over 6’3 next to 6’3.75 measured Wayne Ellington or next to the football player I referenced way down this page that towers over him Wilton Speight who measured 6’5.25.
Canson said on 16/Jun/19
He’s shorter than Wayne Ellington who measured 6’3.75. Also close to 3” shorter than Kevin Huerter who is probably 6’5.5-.75 at a low. 6’3 is the absolute most he is
Jtm said on 15/Jun/19
we getting closer to the truth but i think 6'3 or 6'3.25 is more realistic.
Onabill Choudhury said on 13/Jun/19
Looks min 1/2 and Max 5/8 shorter than 6 ft 4 Harden so the 1/4 downgrade isn’t even that surprising, probably like Kyrie he got measured between 1/2 and 3/4, so they gave him the benefit of the doubt and upgraded him to 6 ft 3 3/4 which now makes more sense why he only got a 6 ft 4 3/4 measurement In shoes rather than 6 ft 5 which legit 6 ft 3 3/4 guys get
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 12/Jun/19
Rob, isn't it this picture
Click Here Wade is further from camera? I don't believe there is more than 1/4 between them, are you?
Editor Rob
6ft 3.5 for wade is a figure I think is probably a bit closer, he might measure almost 6ft 4 earlier in the day...
viper said on 11/Jun/19
I'd say with all the evidence shown he should be downgraded to 6-3.25
Jtm said on 8/Jun/19
he's at least inch taller than gary payton and payton was supposedly measured 6'2.75 but then again payton didn't look over 6'2 with kobe and jordan.
Canson said on 6/Jun/19
@Junior: Harden is around 6’3.5 absolute max and edges Wade by 2cm. We aren’t even sure if he was the full 6’4 in the morning and wasn’t rounded up to that mark from a hair over 6’3.75.

Canson said on 5/Jun/19
@Junior: only thing is that if he measures early morning then Melo did too. Melo looks close to the height he’s listed here. Not saying Wade didn’t lay down or something but maybe. My guess is if that wasn’t a shoe measurement that it was one of those things where they rounded him to 6’3.75 from maybe half or 5/8 and that he’s really only 6’3”. That’s the absolute most I could buy but he looks 6’2.5-6’3” more often than not
Canson said on 5/Jun/19
@Junior: Harden is taller than Wade. I could buy a near 192 for Harden at a low 191.5 minimum and Wade a weaker or solid 6’3” tops
Canson said on 5/Jun/19
@Junior: Harden is taller than Wade.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 4/Jun/19
Click Here Harden is 192cm and Wade is 190cm? Wrong. They're what they listed by Rob for a morning measurement but both under 6'4 for their low and strong 6'3. 6'4 Michael Strahan only had 1/2 on Wade.
Canson said on 4/Jun/19
@Leo: Westbrook is still 6’2.25 next to Carmelo. Wade is only about 1/2” taller. Harden about 3cm taller
Leo said on 3/Jun/19
Here comes the ultimate question: who is taller, Westbrook or Wade? Westbrook now appears close to Harden's height on many occasions which is near 6ft4, and that should be even closer to DWade..... Such a mystery!
Canson said on 19/May/19
@Junior: I see other pics where it’s 2”. Those two are not very good. The absolute minimum is 4cm but looks generally 4-5 between them. I do agree on Tmac. He’s about 1.5” taller than Kobe
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 17/May/19
@Canson Not 2". Kobe could be only 3cm on Wade.
Click Here Check out here in this forum there are much better picture to compare and Kobe look an inch on Wade standing next to each other and a full picture. Only look like at best Kobe were 3cm on Wade. Other thing is Tracy Mcgrady 6'7-6'8 claim is off the chart when he look at most struggle 1.5" taller than Kobe.
Canson said on 14/May/19
6’3 flat no higher. Really looks weak
avi said on 12/May/19
It think a downgrade is in order to 6'3.25
Canson said on 8/May/19
@Junior: Wade is still 2” shorter than Kobe and also shorter than Bradley Beal or Keith bogans or Ray Allen. The most I could give wade is 6’3” flat and that looks a bit high at times. A guy wouldn’t come out and say he’s 6’4” on a very good day at that size (6’3.5). In addition Lebron Otis Smith and Erik Spoelstra have all said the same
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 7/May/19
@Canson Check out this
Click Here scroll to 6:10-6:22 at e end of clip, Strahan and Wade both had the similar heel footwear and through the end of clip there isn't over 1/2 between them. If Strahan is 193cm and the absolute worst Wade is 1/8 under 6'3 1/2. The truth couldn't hide from this clip anymore. Alot of bad camera angle, bad posture causes him to get guess from 6'2-'6'3 that isn't true at all. Like i say he look betweeen 191-192cm, best shot of guesses he can be 191.5cm a low when standing straight.
Canson said on 23/Apr/19
@Junior: only problem is that others in that class look the height they were measured or supposedly measured and Wade himself has always claimed to be 6’4 on a good day and others even calling him that. A guy measuring 6’3.75 at any point in the day is not calling himself 6’4” on a good day. He knows he really isn’t that tall
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 17/Apr/19
If Wade is 6'4 out of bed and near an hour measure at 6'3.75" in draft camp then he got to be 6'3.25" at worst a low. I don't think he
Bust a Gut for the 6'3.75" measurement, he can look anywhere 191-192cm. 6'3 flat is out.

Jdubbz 196cm said on 25/Mar/19
@Canson:
That's what I thought as well, but then it also says he was measured 6'4.75 in shoes. Maybe the shoe measurement was legit but it was in thick sneakers and possibly orthopedics + early morning height? I could see him being 6'3.25-6'5 an hour or so out of bed.
Canson said on 18/Mar/19
@Jdubbz: I’m wondering if that was a shoe height and was moved into the wrong column. Wade has even admitted that he’s 6’4” on a really good day. We see that Lebron measures only .75 taller in shoes at the combine so wade could be the same. I have wade at 6’2.75 as well. 6’3” tops. Next to Goran Dragic that’s maybe 1/2” difference if really a cm. Dragic shows 6’2.75 but not sure if that’s early in the day. I have seen players from 03 and the ones I saw didn’t look much like Morning heights maybe late morning but probably around 1/4”. TJ ford however only looked 5’10” not 5’11”

I'm really confused about Wade. I agree he looks 6'3 or even 190cm most of the time, but how did he manage to get a 6'3.75 barefoot measurement?
Canson said on 10/Mar/19
Wade is nothing over 6’3”. Often looks 6’2.5-6’3 really
