King Kwok,

Give me your email and I will show you a picture of a tall chinese family, about 8 cousins and brothers and everyone from 5'11" to 6'6". Two of my cousins 6'3", 6'3" also, all full Chinese.

I have the pictures to prove it. Give me you email and I will email you a picture.

By the way I am half northern chinese and half HK chinese/Cantonese. By you using Kwok, you are obviously Cantonese as that is my name too. All of my HK relatives are short as hell. So i know where you are coming from. when I went to Toronto I saw alot of short Chinese. But you can't generalize from that, most of the northern Chinese and especially in Heilongjiang & Manchus are very tall.
You need to go there and you will see. I am only 5'11 but yeah I agree with you , when I go to HK, I am about the tallest guy there.

King Kwok,

If you have an opportunity to meet some NBA basketball player one-on-one, compare their real height to their NBA stats height. YOu will be shocked how short these supposedly tall players are.

B. Lee, must you be so forthright as do declare this a battle? *Sigh*, those were not my intentions, and even still, I am not any closer to changing my status quo.

Why eugenics? Perhaps it's difficult to accept giant Asians? I'm sorry, but I took such claims on your part to be direct defamations. And you were so impassioned that I had to offer my own antidote to counter your often lofty claims.

And mugsy bogues has a tendency to average far less than 4 rebounds. That season was also shawn bradley's worst season (excluding this season, where he has been injured for an extended period). And it is a big deal, for if you haven't accepted responsibility for even this trivial of errs, how would you stand to ones where you have wronged in an issue of far greater gravity? And having essentially injured the moral countenance of an entire peoples? Then you bring about this ado, and for what good?


And do not lessen your indignations, leaving it for the non-impassioned readers to surmise falsehoods since you can't accept responsibility for yourself. Not only this, but you avoided compromise until bounded by reprimand (in this instance), when the thought of people actually taking you up on your offer.


"I STATED that NUTRITION is undoubtedly the GREATEST contributing FACTOR for the RISE in HEIGHT of CHINA"

-B. Lee

Glad I can have this in writing, So as not to leave it to conjecture for others

I agree with King Kwok- I live in a large US town with a big Asian population and I'd say 90% of the AFs are 5'4 or under, most about 5'1 or so, and most of the men are about 5'7 - 5'9. I have certainly never seen an AF almost six feet tall. I have no idea what you people are talking about.
