I had to remind myself while watching this that Manu is very tall compared to most humans.
This always amazes me. NBA players that seem tiny are above average height. Many, many years ago I had floor seats to a Spurs game and during pregame, an errant ball came to me and I tossed it back to Vinny Del Negro. (told ya it was many years ago, lol) and mfer is 6'4"...but is just an undersized 2-guard by NBA standards.
How girls on tinder see 5’11” vs 6’
(Seriously though Manu is 6’ 6” and in everyday life the tallest guy in the room 99% of the time)
Check out this ad he did this year with Paula Pareto whos an Argentine retired judoka that won a gold medal.
The ones that look short are the ones with the most proportional body shape. Fred van vleet looks like a midget brick, manu has the proportions of a very normal looking 6 foot tall dude, so especially with other even taller people around him he’s going to look noticeably shorter by comparison
