Comment
Sources? There are a lot of "factual" statements that have no sources, particularly the High School Notes section. The final section regarding his college years also needs sources. Statements like "calling him the greatest freshman of all time" (paraphrased) should only be on there if their is documentation.... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.218.42.105 (talk) 06:54, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
Height
He's been officially relisted as 6"7' (2,01) by the NBA predraft camp, a shock to everybody, but follow the link here - [1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gobbledygookie (talk • contribs) 17:34, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
Re: Height
NBA players official height are measured with their shoes on. He's 6'7 with no shoes and 6'8.25 with shoes. Since NBA players play with their shoes that's how they measure their official height. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aka ShoNuff (talk • contribs) 19:40, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
People please stop changing his height to 6'7 or 6'10. NBA Players are officially measured with their shoes on!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aka ShoNuff (talk • contribs) 06:45, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
I tried to change his height to 6'8", but it was auto-reverted even though his 6'10" height also lacks a source.76.218.222.17 (talk) 12:52, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
- 6'10" is the height given at his NBA profile [2], which is linked at the bottom of the infobox. He may not be 6'10" in reality, but that is why the infobox specifically says that that is his listed height. Zagalejo^^^ 19:23, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
