Not sure where you are getting your info, but its not correct. Dumars was 6'3'' Monroe was 6'3'' Frazier was 6'4'' Also, Monroe and Frazier only won 1 title, not 2.
..successful backcourts? only If you consider 4 consecutive years in the lottery to be successful. ; )
Ultimate small backcourt: Jerry West (6'2") and Gail Goodrich (6'1") they won a championship as the Lakers starting duo in 1972. and both are white!
6-3 SG's were much more common back then. Those guys weren't that much shorter (if at all) than the average opponent's gaurds. The average height of human beings has increased significantly even in the last 30 years for a variety of reasons, so for that reason I would stick to backcourts within the last 15 years or so. I mean would Wilt be slamming home 45 points a night if he actually had to play against other 7 footers like he would nowadays? Doubtful. When Willis Reed can be a center on a championship team you know things are out of wack.
Short? Those guys are midgets. Signed, Yao Ming Shawn Bradley Gheorge Muresan Manute Bol Ralph Sampson
hey youngbloods, Bob cousy and KC Jones played on 8 straight nba champion teams at 6'1 each. Steve is not short. Cuttino is slightly below average but not by much.
