Re: Saw Greg Oden in Hollywood last night
Sort of looks like Oden. Can't really tell for sure judging from that photo.

Re: Saw Greg Oden in Hollywood last night
I did some photo-analysis, and if that is Greg and the person next to him is your 6 foot tall friend, Greg is 1.098 times as tall, which would put him at about 6 and a half feet. Considering that there might be some perspective in play, he could be a couple inches taller. Another factor is that the entire profile is not present, which also expands the range. I could get a more accurate picture if I knew the dimensions of Greg's hand, but I couldn't find that.

That does look like Oden, but I don't think the league would list him 5-6 inches taller than he actually is.
My bad I guess I meant Toronto. I just mean I remember the story about him being the oldest rookie ever.
Anyways, it was Oden for sure. You can tell he's slouching but you can't even tell how much cuz hes warin baggy ass jeans and shirt to cover up his fatass. I would've gotten a better picture of his face but I wasn't tryin to creep and he didn't look like he wanted to take pics.
I can assure you it looked like this though.

Oh, and Roberry Horry was there too.

Great comment from a player (assuming it's him) who has contributed absolutely nothing to his team while collecting millions...mrfatwrecker wrote:carbine23 wrote:Watch the Knees Greg! - All Portland fans out there?

I didn't, but in the OP I mentioned that my friend did. "He asked if he's going to resign with Portland and he mumbled some "man I ain't givin no **** about basketball right now, I'm gettin tipsy""

You'd be surprised man, there's a lot of look-alikes out there and that man does not look 7 ft tall or even 6 10

Re: Saw Greg Oden in Hollywood last night
lol
Firstly, that guy doesnt look like he is a mere 6 inches taller than the other guy... 6 inches is like from the tip of your nose to about just over the start of your hair line. Looks more like 8 to 9 inches to me.
And a 7 footer and a 6 footer would definitely NOT be debatable.... the 6 footer should just be shoulder height of the 7 footer, or below it.... that guy is most likely a look a like...

Upon leaving the club though, he walks out into the light and we're sure it's him. You can't really tell from the picture, but he's got a hell of a potbelly goin on right now. He's fat and out of shape...and I don't know what the deal is, but he does NOT look 7 feet tall. I don't know if they chopped some inches off him when they performed his knee surgeries, but that's my friend standing next to him at the doorway, and he's 6'. Oden looks like he has maybe 6 inches on him, and he doesn't appear to be slouching majorly, even though he's not standing up straight. It's not the camera angle either, he's standing right by him. He asked if he's going to resign with Portland and he mumbled some "man I ain't givin no **** about basketball right now, I'm gettin tipsy"
Also, Jamario Moon was there, and he looked easily taller than Oden.

This would've been more believable if he were hanging with 80 year olds at the retirement home.

Re: Saw Greg Oden in Hollywood last night
I don't if he looks like Oden (that guy doesn't seem ugly enough) but he does look like he could be close to 7 feet (definitely looks bigger than 6'6).

Re: Saw Greg Oden in Hollywood last night
He's at least a head taller than everyone in that picture. Saying he's 6'6" is laughable given your own photographic evidence.

Re: Saw Greg Oden in Hollywood last night
To be honest... it looks like Al Jefferson more... about the right height too... 6'9 on some business shoes.

I'm a bad guesstimator?
I'm just sayin, I've stood next to a bunch of basketball players ranging in height from 6'3 to 7' now, and he just didn't seem as tall as Greg Oden should have been. I know for a fact it was him though, his posture was just crap.
