    Do we now have the biggest starting backcourt in the league?

    6'2 and 6'6. Maybe but not really by much, Miller is a better rebounder then Blake though which will help get 2nd shots and fast breaks.

    Deron Williams is 6'3 and Brewer is 6'7 fyww

    6-2 and 6-6 is nothing exceptional (DWill+Brewer, Rip+Stuckey, Nash+Richardson, Evans+Martin all are bigger or roughly the same).

    They have prototypical height and very good weight for their position, but what I think is more important is that they may just form one of the most productive backcourts based on last year's stats (Miller had an 18.6 PER while Roy had 24, 42.6 combined).

    Granted, Chalmers+Wade combined had a higher PER (44.7) but Chalmers is below average. Parker+Ginobili could be the best (>46) if we don't count that Ginobili didn't start, didn't really play starter's minutes and missed half the season. Hmmm. I think that's it!

    Arenas & Mike Miller can be added to that list

    We are not all interested in the size of their schlongs, HCP, we really don't.

    One year, the Bulls played a back court of Bobby Wilkerson and Reggie Theus. Both 6'7". When Wilkerson played in college for Indiana, he jumped center.
