Default What height for you to play in the NBA?

Given your current skill level, physical condition, basketball acumen, and overall athletic ability, what minimum height would you need to be where you can confidently say you'd be good enough to start for an NBA team. Assume your strength would increase from what it is now to a level that is proportionate to your current strength relative to your current height.

Pretty much anyone on this board who says something less than 8 feet tall is retarded.

I'm 6'5" and can't play for sh!t. Even if I were 10' tall, I wouldn't be able to run and down the court fast enough.

I wouldn't stand a chance unless I was taller then any other player in the nba, and even then I'd have to practice for a long time.
