Jalen Adams to CP3 camp

[Tommyboy]

He's a legit 6'3. I'm 6 feet and he's got me by a couple inches.

Wouldn't that make him 6'2"?

 

[Chief00]

Wow !I wouldve never imagined purvis would be excited for the season.

Never underestimate youthful enthusiasm!

 

[Leebo]

Normal people tend to give their barefoot height whereas Adams height would be in sneakers. So it sounds reasonable to me.

 

[Chief00]

Do me a favor and please post more on Friday nights. I am here with my wife, drinking wine, watching orange is the new block. What's bunky up to? Does he live with Cassell during the summer as well?

Thanks for your interest in my posts - glad you enjoy my posts and that I hit on meaningful topics for you. One suggestion though, sounds like your life is fine and comfortable but perhaps a little boring - from time to time get out and enjoy things and develop you can develop some sources of your own.

Because if anywhere were a big boy camp, an elite guard camp would be it.

His kick-out pass could use a tweek, and what better place? A camp might turn him into the monster in fall we all hope for. Look at Hilty.

What camp did Hilton go to? I know you're not actually going to answer, but I want to see where this goes.

He went to Big Boy camp, dude, keep up.

They have Purvis and Adams as virtually the same size. How can that be? Purvis is built like a truck. The UConn roster has RP as an inch taller and 20 pounds heavier.

Of course, college rosters are often fantasies that get exposed at the NBA combine.

He must make up for it in the length of his arms

Dude's WINGSPAN (if I shout it like Bilas, can I be a talking head too?) must be 8' plus if he's got 20 extra pounds of arms.

To me, Adams looks 6'2-6'3 190lb, Purvis looks something like 6'4 205. I remember him saying he cut down from about 215 at NC State in his redshirt season. He'd be at 235 if we didn't have some idiot in the department doing yoga with the guys instead of bench press. Amiright?

Empirical analysis:

• Same height in the pic.
• Same angle of lean.
• Jalen has 2" of hair.
• Purvis just in front of Purvis, which adds approx .5" to 1" to his height, accounting for perspective.
• Therefore, Purvis is exactly 1" to 1.5" taller than Jalen.
• QED.

You aren't taking in to account relative sock thickness. Some players wear multiple socks

Haha I gotcha.

But actually jalen looks like an alien sometimes. His arms are weirdly long. I'll try to find the team picture from last year later. jalen was taller than Gibbs standing next to each other, but his arms were 3 inches longer. I remember thinking "wow, he must have a really good tailor, or some gigantic shirts"

We'll have to ask Chief. He knows things.

 

[80shusky]

Purvis!

 

[HuskyFich]

Purvis!

If only we got more than one poster a season from Purv...

That SMU dunk is an all timer

 

[MexicoHusky]

Finally!! I've been a little disappointed in our guys summer activities lately. This is a good.

 

[CL82]

I'm 165. He's definitely heavier than me lol

6' 165? Dude, eat some pasta!

I dont think I'll ever forget that dunk. To that point in our AAC tenure, SMU had our number, but that dunk signified the tides turning. And when you consider how much we needed that win at that point of the season, it makes it all the more juicer.

I was 6'2", 150 when I entered college. I weighed 240 by the time I was a Junior. I don't think he should be in a rush to put on weight.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

FWIW Rodney does look leaner/less muscular in that vid. Most have given about 20-25lb of muscle to Brimah.

That's a lot of muscle to put on Rico.
