Nobody's denying that it's physically possible. It didn't happen here, though. Guys usually get an inch-or-so boost in their listing when they're listed in NBA media guides. If Dirk was listed at 6'11" coming in and just 7' now, chances are he hasn't actually grown at all since then.
But more importantly, it was just a ridiculously irrelevant point. The discussion was about Dirk's untraditional upbringing in the league--which is absolutely irrefutable--and clown-ass (not you) wants to nitpick about completely immaterial details.
