LeBron James, 274 pounds?!?
Rich Bucher just gave one of his inside tips... Not that he's the most reliable source, but a Cavs official said LeBron was 6'9, and at last weigh in, 274!!
Good god almighty, this guy is unreal.

I don't think that's a real weight, he looks the same as he did last year when he was 260, 265...

Re: LeBron James, 274 pounds?!?
The next part was Rich Bucher name dropping, saying he text messaged Carlos Boozer about it, who responded with "but I'm only 260!!"

No way.
Bynum and Oden are 285.
Lebron is probably 250, not 260. 270 is ridiculous and definitely not true.

lol... If he's 274.. His career is gonna own. It's probably going to be better than anyone, even Jordan, if he keeps that weight up. So much muscle, the only other person that I cant think of that had muscle like that was Shaq during recent years.

Re: LeBron James, 274 pounds?!?
I don't believe it. Guys like Howard and Oden are just as muscular if not more, and are also taller. Bynum is also bulky. I think Lebron's weight is greatly exaggerated. Do you really see him having 50 pounds on Kobe? 10 pounds on Howard?
I think Lebron's weight is 250-255. 265 is still too much for him

Karl Malone weight below 260 pounds. Do you really think Bron is 15 pounds heavier than Malone?

This is the second report that said the same thing - Jon Barry reported the same last week. The report was 274 with 5% body fat.
btw: LeBron had an in game foul line dunk tonight (foot just over the foul line).

Re: LeBron James, 274 pounds?!?
I just love the fact that half of the responses saying "he can't weigh that much when X weighs less!" like the NBA is somehow wildly inaccurate about height listings (Barkley 6'6"? Hakeem 7'?) but right down to the pound with accuracy when it comes to weight. Come on, guys--Malone's listed weight may have been listed, but that doesn't mean he weighed the 245 he was listed at for most of his career any more than Shaq weighs less than the average NFL offensive tackle at 325.

Oh he is a freak, no doubt about that...but 274? come on.
This is a list of guys Lebron is easily heavier than according to reports:
Karl Malone: 6-9 256 pounds

Dwight Howard 6-11 265 pounds
http://images.google.com/images?&um=1&h ... 40&ndsp=20
Andrew Bynum 7'0 275 pounds
http://lakersblog.latimes.com/lakersblo ... ynum_4.jpg
Greg Oden 7'0 270 pounds is the last report

Lebron is not bigger than he was last year. He looks the same to me. Again, I don't see how he could possibly be 274 pounds and as big or bigger than the mentioned above.
Sorry, I don't see it. He could be thick boned, but did his bones get thicker along with his muscles? I don't see the size difference from last year
