Exum's Highlights from last night #6

With such similar hand measurements, it's hard to believe we never hooked up.

We would be great at high fiving each other

Was wondering who had the biggest hands in the NBA. This article mentions both past & present players (it appears they only list stars and omit scrubs) - was really surprised MJ is at number two:

I'm not. Phil Jackson is very vocal about when comparing MJ and Kobe that MJ had a huge advantage in that he can easy palm the ball whereas Kobe couldn't.

I'm 5'10" and have fairly normal-sized hands, but could palm a ball (unless it was pretty slippery) because I played saxophone and had strong, supple fingers. Just thought I'd contribute here. You basically have to pinch the ball between your thumb and middle finger.

FWIW, Exum looks like he can get anywhere on the floor he wants, when he wants. What he does then is anyone's guess, but he can move the ball without a pick at least.

Yeah kinda like Gobert last year - all the potential was there, he just needed to put it all together.

Look at Giannis Antetokounmpo's hands!!

He will get stronger and faster. His skills will only improve.

He just needs to get that killer instinct.

 

[Stifle Tower]

No way his legs are dead. He's quick as hell to or close to the lane and then he transforms into the fish flopping about at the end of the Faith No More Epic video. Just awkwardly flailing his body to the hoop. Just awful.

Someone needs to go to his house and make sure he isn't watching any film of AK.

Must say I am extremely surprised by his recent play. I was an advocate of sending him DOWN to play at Idaho - not promoting him to the starting lineup. Guess that's why Quin makes the big bucks! But it makes sense. There is actually less pressure on him as a starter as he has Hayward and some scorers around him.

According to DX though, Gobert's hand width was 10''.

Really want to get a hold of a measuring tape.

Measured my hand today,

8 inches long
10 inches wide

Width is your thumb to pinky outstretched on a flat service.

I think peeks may have been making a dick joke

duh

I actually wasn't. I was going to ask how he knows his hand width and length without a measuring tape.. And thought I would get a dick joke in return.

Look at Giannis Antetokounmpo's hands!!

My God!

Interesting to see at the bottom that Giannis is rumored to have 15" hands. See the link provided:

The original list is not comprehensive AT ALL. Shaq, Malone, Duncan, Dr. J, Yao Ming etc. all have huge hands. Also, it says that his hands are 9.85 inches in the photo where they're measuring them.
