Does the height of my players affect the outcome of a game or is it only used in training?

The only 2 things that Height factors in is the original attributes (taller players will be more likely to have big guy stats and vice-versa, although plenty of exceptions occur) and training.

Interesting. Are you sure that is right? I'm not saying it is wrong, I've just never really thought about it.

i am pretty sure that he is right, a good test are the weeks after the draft. You find 5-6 sites full of guard trainees, who are smaller then 1.85, salary higher then 3,5k(that they have some decent skills) and considered at PointGuard. If you make the same search while looking at Centers instead of pointguards you maybe find 5-6 players :)

Another test for it, search for player bigger then 2.20 and watch their guardskills, they are ugly as hell in the most cases(not like 2.10 guys who rarely get trained there)

The most of the players that are taller than 7'3'' are pretty ugly at the guardskills...

That's exactly what Crazy-Eye said, isn't it?

We have both said a lot of things that you are going to regret.

The big question is,

in a game,a 6'7' SG guarded by a 6'0' hs no height advantages over a 6'5' SG guarding the 6'7' SG (assuming skills are the same)?

no, there is no advantage, if the skills are the same.

I believe the manual mentions that "height already factors in" to a players skill set. That's really all I'm going on other than general observations of untrained player's skills.

The only affect of height is on the training speed. Nothing else.
