It's kind of a stupid thread but it's interesting. I'll start it off. When I first saw Sasha Vujacic play, I thought he was about 6'2. He's really 6'7. When I first saw Devin Harris play, I thought he was about 6'6. He's really 6'3.

no an NBA player, but OJ Mayo looks taller than he really is..i seen him next to Rose and Bayless and dont see a difference.

when i first heard of chuck hayes i thought he was taller than 6'6

McGrady is 6'10" according to Garnett when they measured him with Adidas. He is taller than what he is said to be (6'8").

Kapono, he's much taller in real life that I 1st thought he was.

Eltoon Brand sems taller than 6'8"

Carlos Boozer seems taller than 6'9"

Josh Howard seems taller than 6'5"

Jason Terry seems shorter than 6'2"

Gilbert Arenas seems shorter than 6'4"

Charles Barkley "His height, frequently listed as 6 feet 6 inches, is stated as 6 feet 4 inches in his book I May Be Wrong but I Doubt It." from Wiki

Wade's long arms make him look a lot taller than 6'4. Same with Dwight.

Wade's actually 6'5, not 6'4, but he does have a wingspan of about 6'11.

I thought Rip Hamilton was 6'4'' but it says he's 6' 7''

I saw Mobley from the front row, dude looked like he was 6"0 Flat.

earl boykins looks like he's 5 feet next to all those tall nba players

eddy curry is definitely not 285lbs

Kapono is a good one...he's a legit 6'8" in shoes, but I'd swear that he is 6'5" watching broadcasts.

Kris Humphries, for some reason, seems quite a bit shorter than 6'10".

I keep thinking that Kirk Hinrich is 6'1-2", when he's a shade under 6'4" in shoes.

Durant, possibly because of his playing style, doesn't look to be over 6'10".

Ben Gordon is listed as 6'3 he looks more like 6 foot at best.

I have my doubts that Emeka Okafor is 6'10". He seems more "Elton Brand" in size.

DX's pre-draft measurements had him as a solid 6'10" in shoes. I think it's the same optical illusion as Humphries...if your shoulders are wide enough, we start to look stumpy.

Brandon Roy was measured at the pre draft camp at 6'6"+. When you look at him on the floor though, he doesn't seem that tall. Maybe cause his arms aren't really long????

LeBron to me never looks his height...always looks shorter in my eyes

Edit: Oh, is it just me or does LeBron always look bigger in the white home jersey than the away jerseys?

at first i thought shawn livingston was shorter than 6'8

I stand (or in this case sit I guess!) corrected!!

He has a better span and reach than I thought too!! And how about the 22 reps on the bench!!
