This dude gets put on some of the most well known enforcers and aggravators in the league and manages to somehow turn the tables on them.

What were his parents doing to him? :biggums:

I think he had like 10 siblings or something...had to fight for everything he got.

Was probably ganged up on and still torched their sorry little kiddie asses.

He played Rugby in High school before switching to basketball.

Most Rugby players are tough. Delly was a rugby player too

Didn't he make Randolph elbow/slap him in game 6 in '14 as well? Which of course resulted in Randolph's game 7 suspension and OKC advancing.

Rugby is a effing brutal sport and shows the difference between fake, sucker punch (kick in the nuts) ghetto 'tough' and real toughness like Adams and Delly.

Dude had 18 brothers/sisters. The brothers averaged 6'9. You can bet there was some wrestling growing up. Grew up playing rugby too, so dude is tough as nails. Adams has clearly just grown up being around physicality so he's used to it and it doesn't phase him like it does others, hence why they react and he doesn't.

New Zealanders and Australians are natural trolls good at getting inside of peoples heads. They are always good at finding the right button and relentlessly pushing it until people snap.


it is just their culture.
