    Codell,


    Regardless of what the webpages say, clearly, Magloire is not 6'11 250. He does not have the size Cato has.

    Don't think NO would go for this, just sayin...

    Magloire's college profile: 6'10'' and 243. So its entirely probable (;)) that Mags has grown 1 inch and gained 7 lbs since his 21st birthday. (BTW, some sites have him listed at 259).

    I believe Magloire also has a wingspan of close to 7'6'' (longer than Yao's).

    Average height and weight for starting centers in the East:

    6'11'' and 253 lbs


    So despite "looks", Magloire is not an undersized center in the East.

    BTW, Magloire was an all-star this year at the C position.
