Pre season means nothing but I was watching some clips the other day and noticed Steve Adams blocked Dwight one a reverse dunk attempt. It was nice. Not many players can say they owned Dwight like that.

[outbreak]

His opposing centre is Timofey Mozgov and it's pre season.....

But yeah I think he will turn into a good center. top 5? Dunno with the current crop of Embiid, Noel, Jahlil Okafor but he will be solid.

[Trollsmasher]

Looks like KD is now only the 4th best player in OKC

Stacked:eek:

[LongLiveTheKing]

Thunder are even more stacked than last year I didn't think it was possible.

AlphaBrook now has KD Ibaka Morrow and Adams to help him.

[RRR3]

^And Reggie Jackson, one of the best 6th men

[SpecialQue]

Can't wait for him to become elite and then get traded when he asks for more cash.

Think I asked you this in another thread, but why do you hate Durant (and OKC as a whole) so much?

[Cocaine80s]

Because Durant is beta

Can't stand his rip-through move, hate how he's always bitching at refs for fouls (even during the all star game...that actually cemented my hate for him), can't stand his fake humble act, I think he's a prick, and I prefer Westbrook and hate how he always gets shit on by KD fans. I just don't fvcking like the guy and think the Thunder team in general is the most unlikeable team in the league aside from Westbrook, who I love as a player.

Durant is a closet scumbag.

Westbrook is great; out of control moron at times but you can't knock his talent or heart.

Durant's the most likeable superstar of all time. :whatever:

I like that he has a tribal tattoo that actually ties back to his heritage. That's a rarity in todays world of people tattooing themselves with whatever design they think looks cool regardless of it's meanings. Even though he's a kiwi every time I see him off court he seems like a really down to earth and genuinely cool guy

Yeah well he grew up in a huge family. And wasnt rich. Plus when it comes to nz or aus athletes you never really see cocky up themselves type of guys. We stay grounded

Yeah good point except when it comes to the AFL and the Australian cricket scene.

I like to think he's pretty much Aussie :lol

I want to see Aussies/Kiwis do well in the NBA.

Saw that, said he wants to fight Bogut because he hates Australians ever since the underarm bowling incident lol.

[NZStreetBaller]

Yeah well when it comes to sports we hate you guys but its more of like a brotherly rivalry kind of thing. Isnt patty mills an aussie??

he's Australian aboriginal/torres strait islander. Does NZ claim Aron Baynes? I think he was born in NZ, moved to Australia as a kid and now is Australian.

[Mr. Jabbar]

never doubted op :bowdown:

You might be thinking of Bandito.

No. I'm definately Australian :cheers:

Oh sheit I dont know. When the spurs won this year. I saw on the news in aus they were saying he was an aussie so I dont know.

I know he himself identifies as Australian.

[SyRyanYang]

There was a kiwi on the Spurs but it wasn't Baynes.

[Human Error]

OKC is like San Antonio, they keep finding gem after gem in the draft, and this year's Mitch McGary already looks like a legit candidate to make the all rookie team.

I think he meant a Top 5 C on the Thunder squad

[NZStreetBaller]

I know quite alot of people back home who only just recently started watching NBA because they heard a big NZer was playing. Steve adams was the NBL rookie of the year wasnt he ??

Don't think he ever played NBL, he went to College and played HS ball in America pretty sure, Nathan Jawai is the only ROTY in the NBL I can think of that went to the NBA.

That looks like the NZ league not the Australian one is what I thought you meant when you said NBL, that NBL is a tier lower in terms of quality.

[kurple]

His opposing centre is Timofey Mozgov and it's pre season.....


what is that supposed to mean? Mozzy was our best player yesterday

[Bigsmoke]

That white dude?

[jzek]

Can the Cavs get him?

[russwest0]

He shot 70% in the playoffs last year going up against Marc Gasol, DeAndre Jordan, and Tim Duncan.

[IncarceratedBob]

He's basically Pau Gasol with great defense and better range

I remember when James Harden was maiking fun of the Thunder for drafting Steven Adams on Twitter. people weren't checking for Adams like that on draft night. Still hard to determine when young players will get better. Even Travis Knight sorry ass had a few good seasons in the league but was was still a bum his overall career.

[dabigbaws]

Lord Adams.
