[Truddel] Bronny on his defense: “Other people see me as a big, kind of bigger guard. So I feel like I could take that role on in guarding someone bigger. But yeah, I've always taken pride in the defensive end, especially since it translates to better offensive looks.”

My brother, JJ Redick is taller than you
Dude is legit delusional
What do you want him to say here? Ya’ll are just gonna find a way to hate on anything that comes out of his mouth lol
Something that doesn’t involve him saying he’s a bigger guard at 6’1
I mean he clearly means bigger in terms of bulk
He’s like 6’2” 210
He is 6'1
Barefoot
In shoes he’s like 6’2”-6’3”
You play in shoes in case you didn’t know
So does everyone else though so what does it matter
Yes, which is why we say their heights with shoes on
Nope. The NBA changed its policy for the 2019-20 season, requiring players to be measured without shoes for their official height
ur missing op's nuance, he doesnt care about nba rules or what the "official listed height" is hes more concerned with actual height on the court.... guys play with shoes right?
That was quickly abandoned in practice
Okay that’s great, good for them
They still play in shoes so their height is what they are in shoes, so if bronny is 6’1.5” barefoot which is what he was at the combine, he’s about 6’3” in shoes
So he’s 6’3” in nba discussion
So I'm a 6-footer now. Good to know.
If you were an nba player and were being discussed in conversation about you as an nba player, and your barefoot height was about 5’10.5” then sure
But you’re a random person so nobody actually gives a shit if you’re 4’10” or 7’2”
Yeah and we regularly add inches on for players in shoes. KD WAS 6’10 barefoot at the last measurements, this sub still calls him a 7 footer because he wears basketball shoes.
6’1 & 3/4 barefoot is 6’3 in shoes, it’s not a reach and it’s not outrageous to say when we literally do this for every other player
Be consistent yall selective fucks
Lol... everyone else plays in shoes as well, my boy...
Yeah, that’s exactly what I just said, nice job
Your failing hard
Failing at what? Telling you idiots that it’s disingenuous to act like bronny is 6’1” when in reality he’s between 6’2” and 6’3” in shoes? Clearly
No you tried to prep him up.
News flash: a 6'3 guy is 6'4 as well in shoes. Same height difference.
On a side Note: its funny how short 6'3 us guys are compared to a German real 6'3 guy...
No I didn’t, when you’re talking about an nba players height you talk about it in shoes, it’s pointless to talk about it barefoot which is what you tried to do to make him seem shorter
Which it’s stupid, because if he’s 6’1” then so is curry, kyrie, dame, etc etc basically every point guard that lists themselves as 6’3”
Curry is 6'1, Dame might be even shorter, Kyrie is 6'1 as well.
Another thing to know- combine height measurements are taken early morning, when you still have your max height. (By midday you lost 2 cm)
So if someone is measured 6'1.5 out of bed his true rest of day height is 6'1 or less.
I am 6'4 out of bed, 6'3 is my day average, with shoes on I am 6'4 again.
My listed height is 6'3, my max height is 6'4 Barefoot, my day average height is 6'3 Barefoot, 6'4 in shoes and 6'5 in shoes early morning. How tall am I?
Damn I better update my Tinder profile
Gotta buy some of dem 2" platform shoes first apparently lmao ... we are getting real close to "did you just assume my height?" territory here, and I like it.
Weren't you just on another thread talking about your second WIFE and an enormous tragedy with the first? Yikes my good brother, I hope this is a joke.
6’2” 210 isn’t that big tho is it? 210 seems light for elite athletes 6’2 and over
Most 6’2” guards are under 200 lbs
Makes sense. I was genuinely asking. Without doing any research it just sounded light
Given the circumstances I would expect much more humility
Humility? Come on, what’s so egregious about what he said here?
Jesus y'all nee a life FR.
The hate is crazy. Idk why everyone is so butthurt about Bronny.
Totally, LeBronJames
Oh shit its LeBronJames cakeday, he just turned 40
40 and still carrying the Lakers
To.... where exactly? Lol
I know you’re not talking with that flair lol
You don't hear me rah rahing lmfao. I know exactly how garbage my team is currently. You just seem to be puffing your chest about a 40 year old and I'm just asking you how successful he is in carrying that team currently.
Are you so insecure that me saying LeBron is carrying the Lakers sound like I’m “puffing my chest”?
Lakers are trash but without LeBron on that team they probably would’ve been lottery. It’s crazy that a 40yo has to play almost every minutes of every game for the team to barely make the play in.
Now go get yourself a Diet Pepsi and chill crodie.
We agree on that then. I'm good. But AD was better than Lebron last year. So I will disagree with you there.
You should start a GoFundMe for him.
Lots of jealous ho's when it comes to Bronny.
I mean..who wouldn’t be jealous of someone shoehorned into an industry that comes from generational wealth
