Why would there be three different websites all dedicated to finding NBA/The Wire lookalikes?

Some of these are good some not so much. Arenas looks nothing like Idris Elba to me. Prop Joe and Eddy Curry don't sync up either. Omar def reminds me of Darius Miles though. I always though K-Mart slightly resembled Method Man as well.

Is that a Gilbert Arenas mug shot? I love it. ;-)

AAH!! I was just watching the wire going through who everyone looks like, or at least the closest approximation I can think of.

Bill Russell/Lester Freamon is one that struck me immediately, glad to see it included:

One of them has Poot and Brevin Knight, but I always had Lieutenant Daniels.

Also:
Wee-Bey = Tyreke Evans
Sydnor = Rodney Carney
