He's so strong that most of these elbows thrown at him would be ejections but since he barely flinches from them it doesn't look nearly as bad as it would on other players
I mean the first play in the video he was just boxed out and theatrically threw himself to the ground. The other guy had nothing to do with it didn’t even know what happened. Not to mention Adams was moving towards that little guy and some how that little guy change his trajectory in an instant like it was nothing
God I miss Steven Adams in OKC. Dude may honestly have been the strongest dude pound for pound in the NBA. You know the joke 'When Chuck Norris does a push up he's not pushing himself up, he's pushing the Earth down', that joke was inspired by Steven Adams...when other NBA players push Adams, they're not pushing him away, they're pushing themselves away from him as he stands in place
I think he kinda expects those kinds of things to happen as it's the nature of being a center you're probably gonna take a lot of bumps, he manages himself very well
Announcer said Adams went for the head first and sounded all sure and pivoted to hitting the back during the replay. Replay shows from a different angle and Adams didn’t even touch him with an elbow. Announcer is a clown for sure
I love the way everyone seems to get in the way of the other player first before Steve. 2 or 3 in-between them to save the thunder and rage they fear but he remains calm. He's like that brick wall they have for the crash test dummies.
I haven't had anyone like that on my class, here in Spain us that sit behind are not the quiet ones that's for sure, if anything we didn't shut our mouth, nobody told us anything either, happened once or twice and let's say we were the big kids and very immature and very conflictive, it got ugly for whoever told us, once was the teacher and what we done to her was shameful even if I wasn't the one that did it.

Yep, there's a huge difference between physical and dirty. Adams is physical and someone like Zaza is dirty. A lot of these NBA players aren't used to being roughed around. The sports from AU/NZ and EU tend to allow more contact.
@@Szubak I think you’re spot on about sports outside the US, there is so much more contact allowed in some sports outside of the US. It’s wild man I think it’s rugby if I’m correct but they FUCK each other up lol really tough dudes for sure I couldn’t imagine transitioning from something like rugby to basketball 😂
Yeah as an Australian, I grew up watching my brothers play rugby which is a lot of physical contact. However what I’ve noticed is that it gets more personal more quickly watching more American professional sports now. In addition, arguing with refs and I’ve even seen fights where they are thrown in the middle of it. Even though I didn’t play a lot of sports, girls and guys (but especially with more physically aggressive sports like rugby), it gets drilled into us from a young age to be respectful especially of refs and coaches.
@@vnmeister9418 yeah I played rugby from 6-15 years old and players were always respectful to refs unlike football players, and also no matter what happened on the pitch we’d always go to the rugby club for sausage and chips and get along with the other team after the game

@@Samford404 This is the dumbest comment I’ve read. You’re use a 5 foot guy to compare to a 7 footer XD please stay in fortnite till your balls drop kid
My favorite thing about Adam's is he could really score 20 points per game. He has great footwork, he has a soft touch. They could throw it up ti the basket. But its not in the game plan for him to score and he doesn't care. All of his coaches have said the same
I love Adams(Grizz fan) but he doesn't have 20 ppg in him. He doesn't have that good of touch or really any go to moves on the block and he's lost a lot of hops due to injury/age where he's not a vertical spacer anymore. That being said he really doesn't care about his stats and you're right. I think the most underrated aspect of his game is passing. Grizzlies have put him in a Marc Gasol esque role where he is the distributor in the high post. He has some nice bounce passes that lead to free baskets for our guards when they cut. He had 2 or 3 against the Bulls on MLK day
@@ohishwaddup I like your input, just disagree on the scoring. Shaq said the same thing about Adams. He could easily put up 20 per game. One thing is he is still only 28 a d does t put up alot of minutes. He shoots it 5 times per game, that's it. Only time he's taken 9 shots per game He averaged 14. If he averaged 17 shots per game like Karl Anthony towns that would put him around 22 per game not even counting the fact he would get fouled more. Even if he only made 4 out of 8 free-throw attempts that would put him around 25ppg.that would put him right around guys like Jokic,towns... its just not what they want him or need him to do. If guys like kareem,shaq, Duncan watch and say he could average 20 EASY, then I'm kind of inclined to believe them.
@@Dgen99 I think in those guys eras I definitely think he could I'm just talking about these days. Shaq is extremely biased to dudes like him compared to Towns who he considers soft. I haven't seen Kareem or Timmy say anything like that but if they did I would definitely trust them. I think his early development in New Zealand really held him back as far as developing a more overall game. He could always be the biggest and strongest guy on the court over there which has obviously been applicable to the NBA but he wasn't taught a lot of the skills that are taught in more basketball oriented countries to big guys like go to post moves, foul line jumpers, etc. I wonder what kind of player he could've been if he moved over here younger but then we wouldn't have his great accent and personality :). I wanna say thanks for being so respectful even if we disagree lol. Makes basketball a lot more enjoyable to discuss compared to a lot of the idiots on Facebook or Bleacher report lol
@@ohishwaddup it's so much better to have actual conversations and I agree to disagree. Only because its a numbers game. He does have a weird combo of skills for his size. The strength is a difference maker also. Like Zion(if he weren't injury prone/lazy) he is just strong. Like a whole other level strength. The issue with most big guys is usually they were always the biggest/strongest in there schools or there area. They get in the league and realize, oh this guy is stronger than me. There are a few guys though that they ARE the standard.There just isn't a player naturally stronger than he is.If you are just really that much stronger than. Even a guy like ayton or embiid that is a miss match. That's what shaq was speaking on. He is just stronger, he can sit in the paint like he does for his offensive rebounds and if he had a chris Paul type guy give him 18-20 shots per game he is going to make half of them. Players have an issue moving him and he keeps the ball high like old school centers. So guys like Joel/giannis even try to bully people. It's hard to bully someone your size who can literally pick you up like a toddler a d move you out of the way. That's why it does t seem too far fetched to me. He isn't athletic, but neither was Duncan. What he did though was keep the ball high and shoot a short shot off the glass.
Cousins must have realised Adams takes elbows to head from folks every game with zero reaction... also don't think he wanted to be the first NBA player in history to get buried by a member of the Justice League.
That last one is more impressive than some may realize He kept his left arm perfectly still, tightly locked to look like he wasn’t doing anything but held it in place firmly enough to let his whole body be dragged a couple feet without budging an inch Didn’t see his arm move at all Dude’s frick’n strong
Nope , not at all , Malone , Barkley , Oakley , rodman , morning , Robinson , mutombo, Davis brothers from Indiana , Ewing , believe me , they were not weak at all
Adams is the type of person that when you bully him you think he will be afraid or he won't retaliate but when you try you should be scared because of its strength.
I love how Chris Paul was like "who the f*ck pushed me?!" then he saw Adams and was like "understandable, have a good day"

Yeah, most cauliflower eared men has strong and tough body, I think many mma fighters have those
@@chietrinidad1753 cauliflower ears are made after lot of fights
Yeah.... repeated trauma to the ear causing overgrown cartilage. So headlocks and punches. But being Kiwi, more likely from Rugby. 😉
Honestly I think you're right. Any I dude I know with either one of those who's a strong dude lol
Is this a BAKI reference?
That dude on the clippers shitted his pants seeing Adams run after him😂😭
“that dude” is cp3, one of the best point guards of all time. 😂
@@WorldOfMalong wrong clip dude lol....
@@WorldOfMalong Nah was another guy
@@WorldOfMalong cool, but it was actually CJ Williams,
More so amazing was and maybe still is, his human visual transition. From frat kid, to a pist-off, I survived walking the plank pirate! What a baller!
3:22 I love how Chris Paul got up real quick like he was gonna do something then he saw who it was lol
xD😂😂
*I didn't recognize him with short haircut.*
He doesn't look scary with short hair
Lil bit looks like trevor XD
Good looking guy!
He turned into Jason Momoa
Zevik 1:54???
steven adams is a professional. he mostly lets guys just throw elbows n shit but let’s admit it. if he hits back it’s over
The bro grew up fighting too
Nah not necessarily, being big or an NBA player don't mean you can hit somebody and it's over, I don't think I need to prove to you that for now NBA players have shown that if anything they got shit on fighting, K.O'd stiff by a fucking UA-camr... What a shame man 😂
@@Samford404 the youtuber Is a boxer who stays in the gym. It was over before it started
@@Samford404 This is the dumbest comment I’ve read. You’re use a 5 foot guy to compare to a 7 footer XD please stay in fortnite till your balls drop kid
Anthony get into that ring with the UA-camr.... Didn't think so🤔
3:25 CP3 came up hard ready to fight, then realized he was squaring up with Aquaman and changed his mind real quick. 😂😂
That flying tomahawk chop too CP tho 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Everybody gangsta till Steven Adams rocks up to his next game with a clean shave.

Gotta hit you with the reverse.
My favorite thing about Adam's is he could really score 20 points per game. He has great footwork, he has a soft touch. They could throw it up ti the basket. But its not in the game plan for him to score and he doesn't care. All of his coaches have said the same
I love Adams(Grizz fan) but he doesn't have 20 ppg in him. He doesn't have that good of touch or really any go to moves on the block and he's lost a lot of hops due to injury/age where he's not a vertical spacer anymore. That being said he really doesn't care about his stats and you're right. I think the most underrated aspect of his game is passing. Grizzlies have put him in a Marc Gasol esque role where he is the distributor in the high post. He has some nice bounce passes that lead to free baskets for our guards when they cut. He had 2 or 3 against the Bulls on MLK day
@@ohishwaddup I like your input, just disagree on the scoring. Shaq said the same thing about Adams. He could easily put up 20 per game. One thing is he is still only 28 a d does t put up alot of minutes. He shoots it 5 times per game, that's it. Only time he's taken 9 shots per game He averaged 14. If he averaged 17 shots per game like Karl Anthony towns that would put him around 22 per game not even counting the fact he would get fouled more. Even if he only made 4 out of 8 free-throw attempts that would put him around 25ppg.that would put him right around guys like Jokic,towns... its just not what they want him or need him to do. If guys like kareem,shaq, Duncan watch and say he could average 20 EASY, then I'm kind of inclined to believe them.
@@Dgen99 I think in those guys eras I definitely think he could I'm just talking about these days. Shaq is extremely biased to dudes like him compared to Towns who he considers soft. I haven't seen Kareem or Timmy say anything like that but if they did I would definitely trust them. I think his early development in New Zealand really held him back as far as developing a more overall game. He could always be the biggest and strongest guy on the court over there which has obviously been applicable to the NBA but he wasn't taught a lot of the skills that are taught in more basketball oriented countries to big guys like go to post moves, foul line jumpers, etc. I wonder what kind of player he could've been if he moved over here younger but then we wouldn't have his great accent and personality :). I wanna say thanks for being so respectful even if we disagree lol. Makes basketball a lot more enjoyable to discuss compared to a lot of the idiots on Facebook or Bleacher report lol
@@ohishwaddup it's so much better to have actual conversations and I agree to disagree. Only because its a numbers game. He does have a weird combo of skills for his size. The strength is a difference maker also. Like Zion(if he weren't injury prone/lazy) he is just strong. Like a whole other level strength. The issue with most big guys is usually they were always the biggest/strongest in there schools or there area. They get in the league and realize, oh this guy is stronger than me. There are a few guys though that they ARE the standard.There just isn't a player naturally stronger than he is.If you are just really that much stronger than. Even a guy like ayton or embiid that is a miss match. That's what shaq was speaking on. He is just stronger, he can sit in the paint like he does for his offensive rebounds and if he had a chris Paul type guy give him 18-20 shots per game he is going to make half of them. Players have an issue moving him and he keeps the ball high like old school centers. So guys like Joel/giannis even try to bully people. It's hard to bully someone your size who can literally pick you up like a toddler a d move you out of the way. That's why it does t seem too far fetched to me. He isn't athletic, but neither was Duncan. What he did though was keep the ball high and shoot a short shot off the glass.
@@Dgen99 Im here to be toxic and call you an idiot for having a different opinion
This video just shows the composure and ability to stay cool under pressure. These players are lucky Adams does not unleash the Hulk in him.
He can summon that trident out of thin air any minute.
NBA’s aqua man
He might be aquaman to every league
Aquaman is Polynesian just like Adams...🤷♀️
@J S ...whatever...
Nice Thought there.
Well a gayer version lol
Cousins must have realised Adams takes elbows to head from folks every game with zero reaction... also don't think he wanted to be the first NBA player in history to get buried by a member of the Justice League.
lol nice
Strongest player in the NBA. He never really loses his cool but if he does ya might wanna run for cover. One of my favorite players in the game.
That last one is more impressive than some may realize
He kept his left arm perfectly still, tightly locked to look like he wasn’t doing anything but held it in place firmly enough to let his whole body be dragged a couple feet without budging an inch
Didn’t see his arm move at all
Dude’s frick’n strong
The king of the oceans demands you step-up-eth for the challenge!!
Aquaman
f you that's right Jason Momoa
Steven Adams proves why he is aquaman every game
Adam's played big brother role in every team he plays...lov it...
Lol @ Boogie winding up like he was about to punch him at 9:48...
Steven Adams could honestly have played in the 90s and made players back then look weak
Nope , not at all , Malone , Barkley , Oakley , rodman , morning , Robinson , mutombo, Davis brothers from Indiana , Ewing , believe me , they were not weak at all
@@omarveneno fair but he would've stood out
@@omarveneno those dudes would play today and bully most centers
@@hectorvaldez9609 NBA now days is a joke , look at harden , he would shoot free throws if someone look at him ... I miss the 90s NBA

When you’re raised on Rugby.. NBA contact is cute
It’s funny how they flop more in non-contact sports, isn’t it? See: soccer.
These should play 1 half of rugby to see some real contact
Look at american football with helmets and pads
rudvs Rugby does that without pads
Pretty much
Adams is the type of person that when you bully him you think he will be afraid or he won't retaliate but when you try you should be scared because of its strength.
Never a good thing to think you're so strong. There's always someone stronger.
It's cool how westbrook had his back almost everytime.
Westbrook is actually looking out for the other guys.
From what I've seen. Adams is clearly the one making sure Westbrook doesn't get in a fight most of the time, only right he returns the favor
Damn right , true leader and a friend.
he was his best friend on the team after Kanter left
Guards love there bigs
I love how Carter elbows him in the face, ref blows the whistle, and Adams was like - what happened?
He ain't feel any
🤣😷🤙🙏
Adams saved Miles Plumlee from possible catastrophic injury. I like the guy.
Those dudes showing agression towards Adams can't even stand in a real brawl against him. 🤣🤣
I love the fact that most of those clips are just other players not being able to deal with Adams' strength
Dame: Why u hurting my guy
Steven: Who said that
Dame: Now is my chance to leave
🤣
What? Same literally had a full convo with him stop it bruh
Jay Crowder stepping to Aquaman like he'd do something lol..
Nick Young thought he could move him, couldn't and then got annoyed cuz he could not believe it was legal😂
