Lin doesn't seem to fit into that description... he looks well proportioned and long... |
For an average person sure...but check out his proportions compared to Clarkson. Both around the same height but Clarky has way longer legs, a shorter torso, and way longer arms. |
Lin is 6'3 and Clarkson is 6'5. Those two inches make huge difference. |

One thing about draftexpress if that their wingspan measurements always vary by up to a few inches. Not sure how they measure it but Lin and Clarkson have the same standing reach although Clarkson is a bit taller and longer wingspan.
Just thought that was odd.

| Anyone else find it troubling that Byron keeps going for the 2 with all those timeouts even though we really needed a 3? And please no tanking excuse. |

Standing reach also depends on neck height and how your shoulder slopes. If Lin's torso is higher (and thus his neck shorter) and his shoulders lay flatter that would make his standing reach equal to Clarky's.

Lin has a long neck and head though while Clarkson's is very short.
Nothing makes sense anymore!!!!

Yeah this crap is stupid anyways I'm truly sorry I brought it all up. Maybe Clarky's shoulders slope a lot? Mine do that and my standing reach suffers horribly for it  |

The important question is... Who has bigger toes? Because bigger toes means more traction on the ground, hence, being faster and more effective. |

| Jordan Hill is worthless. What other Center just shoots 20 foot jumpers? He doesn't rebound, doesn't block shots, can't post up, can't dribble. He's an oversized, underskilled Shooting Guard and has no place in the NBA |

Shhhh! Jordan thinks he's Dirk Nowitski, Jr. out there and that's totally fine for the rest of this season... |

| No team should lose on purpose. I'd rather get the pick-loss over with this year and move on. I hope we get a bust/ |

Why would you hope for a bust? Unless you're talking about the Knicks that is

He reminds me of the joke MyPlayers I'd made in 2K12. 6'11" and would just jack up shots as soon as he got the ball XD |
