We don't know for sure if he was 245 when he was 18. Weight and height are always exaggerated, look at Higher Tech saying Lebron is 6'9, so he's 6'9 now?:beli: I look at Lebron next to his peers and he doesnt seem that much heavier than them, it's obvious that he isnt as heavy as he once was. Look at him next to Kobe. I use Kobe because he's listed at 205, now does it look like Lebron has 50+ pounds on Kobe?:yeshrug:

he's way bigger than kobe. Kobe is a really skinny dude, I think artest is a better comparison.

No, we do know for sure that he was 245lbs, because he was weighed at the NBA combine -

I'll take that database over you trying to guess the weight of someone based on a picture where Kobe is in the foreground with Bron in the background. Here's what they look like together on more even planes -

And no yung yogurt, but Bron has thicker legs than Kobe. For comparison, if you just looked at DeAndre Jordan and Andre Drummond you'd say there's no way there's 30-40lbs difference between them, but there is because one has chicken legs and the other doesn't.

LeBron is probably around 260. Like I said in the other thread, his legs are huge nh. There's a reason why he can jump off of one foot from way past the dotted line over and over again at his weight.

Just comparing upper bodies is dumb.

Kobe looks like your average 6'6" athletic build. Anywhere around 200 pounds is normal.

:devil:
:evil:

Karl's listed weight is from his rookie year, when he hit the league he looked like this -

By the time he was done with his career there's no way he was under 260lbs. He was bigger than LeBron, I think people just see the weight listed and don't realize it was never updated for Karl.

I'm know he's bigger than Kobe, thats a given, I don't think he's 50 pounds+ bigger, thats all.

I used a skinny player on purpose, thats part of my point. All I'm asking is do you see a 50+ pound difference? I don't, but maybe someone else does.

With height and muscle mass considered maybe. I dont know kobe's true weight tho. Thing is, weight is kind of hard to guage because ppl carry it differently.
