95% does sound like a lot but 95% would be more like 6'3-6'4.

That was the General Manager of the Dubai Intercontinental where Kareem was
staying at the time . I would like to add that if it wasn't for him There
was no way I could have gotten the pictures with Kareem . Glenn was right
on that point, Kareem is not much of a photo opp guy . I think he was around
5' 9" to 5' 10" ish .

Btw there was a tv show a couple of weeks ago about British 7-footers. According to the show, there are only 30 (yes, thirty!) people over 7 feet living in Britain today. Thirty out of 60 million Britons! Admittedly we are below the world's average number of giants per country, but in a country which is the size of Britain there should be no more than two hundred 7-footers.

Yeah, these NBA players are amazingly big when compared to "normal" human beings. My husband's got a photo with 7'0.5" Vlade Divac, and although Divac slouches, my poor hubby (who's in fact a rather big chap, 6'2" and 220lbs) looks like a little kid!

Yeah, 95 % would mean 1/20 would be the same or taller than Abdul-Jabbar. I think not.

This is rarely but if I do lay down during the day for a bit for a nap I could regain 1/4 inch back I think.

WOW, Kareem seems to be at least 7'1.5 in most of these pics. I always thought his height could have been Inflated, but this guy is one of the few Celebs on this site that really look their billed hieght in real life.

Alex, I used to be 5'10" straight out of bed, but something has happened. Now I am MAX 5'9.5" straight out of bed. I think I've been slouching way too much and for way too long at my computer than I have curved my spine a bit. Normally I go down to 5'8 7/8" by nightfall. You can reclaim some of that height loss if you lie down for a bit during the day.

kareem constantly looks taller than other 7 ft+ centers (Wilt, I give O'Neal 7ft though he admitted himself to be 6ft11,5). But you also need to see his lanky frame (225 lbs) makes him look taller. I would say 7-1 barefoot
Kareem may have been listed at 225 lbs. in high school. He was probably 250 lbs. for much of his NBA career and was listed at 267 lbs. for IIRC at least the last 5 years with the Lakers. In seeing pics of Kareem with 7'1" Andrew Bynum, it looks like he's lost little if any height at age 60 as he still edges out Bynum in b-ball shoes.

Shaq was probably joking when he said 6'11 1/2". Howard Stern probably said something about Shaq being 7 feet and he joked he was 6'11.5" to be a smartass. He was measured 7'1" barefoot and the 1992 pre-draft camp(he was already 303 pounds too!)- source Miami Herald and Rocky Mountain News Also why is it nobody has a link to Shaq claiming to be 6'11.5"? Patrick Ewing claimed he is 6'9" but obviously he was joking.

Danimal, it depends when I get measured, really does.
Right out of bed I would be 6'1 on a good day but 6'0 3/4 at the least. Then after an hour or so being up I can get down to 6'0 1/2. But by midday I'm 6'0-6'0 1/4 where I stay the rest of the day. I'd be pretty suprised if I got measured at 6'0 1/2 by the midday. You may have been thinking of my out of bed height when you thought 6'1. I'll tell people either 6'0, 6'0 1/4 or 6'0 1/2, depends how I feel since all are rigth in their own way.
Even 6'0.75 or 6'1 would be right but I'm that height way too short to say I am that tall but som people do say their out of bed height though.
Whats your daily height loss?

if you look at this video you can clearly listen him to be described as 7'1" but listed at 7'0" in the screen profile, as for Duncan and Woods they are respectively 209 cm and 215 cm tall and the tallest I give to Shaq is 214 cm now

I didn't Vegas. He just rode by me on his bike. It was quite a site considering how long his legs are. I've seen Kareem a few times in person at Laker games but I never got down to courside when he walked over to the bench, etc.

JT did you ever see kareem in person standing?? I stood beside his madame tussauds wax work in new york about 5 years ago and it was a easy 7'2, probably 7'3.5-7'4 with basketball boots on. The picture didn't come out though

This is one guy you can bet the bank on for being at or very close to 7'2". Kareem looked at least an inch taller than Wilt when they played against each other. I saw Kareem riding his bike on the UCLA campus back in the 1980s and he looked around 6'6" when seated.

when yao stands up fully straight he has shaq by close to 5" (unless he has a really small forehead). Yao 7'5-7'5.5" and Shaq 7'0-7'0.5" is most likely imo Click Here kg is behind both yao and shaq there and leaning badly so no point trying to estimate him from that pic.

Shaq is more 7'0 flat and puts Kareem at 7'2 there.

you can find that 7'1 5/8 thing as far back as when he was 17-18 years old though (he could have grown .4 of an inch)
surely wilt should be downgraded because there was more than half an inch between these guys.

He's 7'2, this listing for him is close enough. Pretty much 7'2 it is. Whats this in fractions, like 7'1 3/4?
Shaq is more 7'0 flat and puts Kareem at 7'2 there.

Editor Rob Kareem was MEASURED at 7ft 1 and 5 8ths...
I'm telling it exactly as he was measured because fractions are important round here ;)

Got this picture from another site and I think Kareem is a solid 7'1 5/8" in his youth and possibly almost closer to his billed height of 7'2"

This picture will also confirmed that Shaquille O'Neal is indeed a legit 7-1 Center in the NBA and not the 7'0 listing that Editor listed in this site.
