    i don't know; the placement of TMac's and Battier's feet look about the same to me.

    I saw TMac and Battier side-by-side and TMac is not taller. They are close to the same height. Snyder was actually taller than I expected.

    But, what difference does it make if a guy is 6'7" or 6'9" anyway, particularly when they are swing players?

    Somebody should photochop that 610 microphone to say Clutchfans. That would be my new wallpaper.

    :D

    That mannerism is pure Rodney Dangerfield, "I get no respect I tell ya" should be the caption for that one. I'd love a wallpaper of the Battier, Yao, T-mac, and Bonzi photo.

    It was f2.8? Wow, I thought it was large than that. Did you use a tripod on those photos? They looks really sharp even with the low shutter speed.

    Battier was indeed listed at 6'9 in pre-draft measurements.

    http://www.mynbadraft.com/2001

    Judging from all the photos I've seen, I think that makes T-Mac his listed 6'8, but it also makes Wells about 6'7, if I'm not mistaken.

    The funny thing about that is that I actually think I remember Wells being listed at 6'7 earlier in his career, and at some point in the last couple years, it was changed to 6'5. I don't get it.

    Kinda like Yao being 7'6, yet they insist on listing him at 7'5...

    Well, they don't make zooms below 2.8. They did come out sharp - some sharper than others. No tripod was used. WAY too bulky for something like this.

    Photoshop rocks for cleaning them up - adjusting light/contrast, managing color, sharpening and removing noise. Pretty cool.

    Thanks for all the pics, great work. Is it just me or after listening to these guys do others share the view that this may be the most intelligent group of players in the league?

    Clutch thanks for the coverage and Jeff thanks for the pics. It's amazing that there's so much media surrounding the Rockets yet our home town media does a poor job of covering the Rockets. These media guys must be from out of town.
