Not out of the realm of possibility.

Its is very possible. This would really help him be a center.

It would be nice because then he'd fit in better at the 5. I don't care what position he plays, though, I just wanna see the man play.

I don't think height is as important to him becoming a center as putting on muscle mass would be.

Yep.

An inch or 2 will look better in the media guide. But will it really affect his ability to play center?

But it would decrease the amount he would need at his current height.

If he stays at 6'11, I don't want him bulking up so much to where he loses most of his mobility.

Yeah, I don't think it'll matter much.. KG is easily over 7 foot and he just started playing Center this year.. I was shocked earlier this year to see that Durant is almost 7 foot now and he plays SF (I swear he had an inch easy on Perkins)..

Perk is more like 6'9-6'10 in shoes. KD is like 6'11-7'

He will bend the power of the masses to his will and rule unquestionably building monuments to his greatness and destroying lives in his wake of those who oppose him.


Or he'll just grow another inch or two.

One or the other.

Do we want him to play center? I think he is a better PF than he is a 5. He may be a able to play a little 5 but it is easier for him to own 4's than 5's.

My thoughts FWIW, let him go down the Tim Duncan path. He's too small to play the 5 now so let him be a PF. When he gets older and bigger, he can play the 5/4 based on need.
