Exum's Highlights from last night #6

[QuinSnydersHair]

A summer at P3 will help, his core strength is very weak.

I want him to transform his body, conditioning, and skill set like no other player in NBA history. You think you're Kobe, Exum? Show me.

Gauntlet thrown your way Dante if you read this board.

Exum hasn't filled out yet so his body proportions look off - he'll put on another 10-15 pounds naturally and then add another 10 pounds or so through strength training within the next 2 or 3 years - then look out!

Yep, the kid is a kid. He'll gain strength while keeping up his quickness and probably get a bit more explosion when he jumps. He has all the potential in the world, and is already showing he can shoot, which was one of my biggest worries from the beginning.

THE BOY CAN BALL

Lol, his hands measured 8.5." Pretty average for his height. So not small. Not a real vertically explosive guy. He's definitely way more Manu than he is Westbrook.

I measured my hand to see how I compare. I measure at 8" and I'm 6'4.

I'm 6'4 and am 8.25. So Dante should be able to palm a basketball with ease.

How easily can you palm the ball? I baaaarely can.

How wide is your hand though?

Think width is the length between your hand outstretched from pinky to thumb.

Really? I doubt my hand is 8.5'' and I can palm the ball fairly easily.I have a huge thumb though.

8.6"

I can palm it easily. Probably from 9th or 10th grade onward (finally stopped growing in the 9th grade after a crazy 8th grade growth spurt)

Just measured - stretched my left hand out and it comes in between 9.5 - 9.75. And oddly enough, when I measured my other hand it was a lower number - roughly 9. That explains why I've always had an easier time palming a basketball with my left hand.

Should we change the title of this thread to "How big is your hand?"
