very impressed with this guys hustle. hes not much of an offensive player but he does a bunch of scrappy shit that concerns me and for a big guy hes quick and bouncy. have a feeling hes gonna cause problems.

[RD2191]

He's a faggot. Baynes or Ayres need to rough him up.

[superjames1992]

That stupid tattoo he has on his outer forearm is just stupid. Makes me hate him, tbqh.....

[ElNono]

Fake tough guy, cheap shot artist. His value is directly proportional to his ability to grab and hold players.

[RD2191]

It's amazing how anyone who plays for OKC automatically turns into major douche.

[romsho]

Same guy who Kawhi broke his hand going through a pick on. A big who hacks. Be careful around him.

[Budkin]

This guy's job is to get under opposing players' skin and/or injure them. That's it.

:lol

[SupremeGuy]

The second he goes in, counter with Ayers or Baynes just to rough him up a bit. He's OKC's Blair. He's going to try to bring energy from off the bench and shit. He needs to be put in his place as soon as possible.

[Chris]

He's a poor man's Eduardo Najera

[Hoops Czar]

Baynes on steroids.

[TheyCallMePro]

He's just a damn goon. Watch him closely after the whistle blows. Always shoving people from behind and trying to start a fight.

Otherwise he's very limited offensively, can't jump, and doesn't have much potential outside of being 6'10.

[DesignatedT]

Baynes will put the hurt down on him

[Hoops Czar]

Hypocrits here will call him a fake tough guy but if he was playing for the Spurs, he'd be a fan favorite. Typical Spurstalk clowning themselves. Then again, its the same team of posters that thought Daye should get rotational minutes in the postseason because he knocked down some open three's in RS garbage time.

[Hoops Czar]

Baynes will put the hurt down on him

That wasn't the case during the regular season.

[Jdspur20]

For those of us without twitter, what did he say?

[Spurs_Be_Beastin']

:lol

I wish pop would do that sometimes, but he doesn't think that way, or has never done anything that would make believe he would do that. He's a goon and you need to establish early with the officials using Baynes that you wont stand for the goon tactics by making them cut that stuff out or you will match it.

The only time I've ever seen pop do this was against the Lakers back in the day in a regular season game where Shaq was bull dozing and not getting called for it. I think it's the game where he turned and gave Dave hard sharp elbow to the chest that dropped him. Pop grabbed Felton Spencer and said "get in there and kick his ass!" Spencer came in and fouled Shaq hard. The two started jawing while Shaq was at the line and they took Shaq outta the game. It was 99 or 2000. I consider that episode a complete anomaly.

[DarrinS]

Isn't he responsible for Zbo having game 7 suspension?

[SupremeGuy]

Isn't he responsible for Zbo having game 7 suspension?Yeah, and he's been involved in multiple incidents in his short career already.

[hommeaetage]

Isn't he responsible for Zbo having game 7 suspension?

Actually several players have been fined/suspended for being in an altercation with him. There's something about him that just irks me

[Vic Petro]

At this stage of his career, he's just a goon.

[SupremeGuy]

He's a poor man's Eduardo Najera:lol

:lol THIS is the lottery pick they got in the Harden trade. He's a white Perkins.

Let's tally this up. For Harden, they got

Adams, a hack. 15 minutes, 3 points 4 rebounds.
Lamb 20 minutes 8.5 points
Perry Jones 12 minutes, 3.5 points

I baynes to dunk on him tbh

We'll, we don't have any dumb players who can be baited into that kind of crap -- thankfully.

[slick'81]

Yeah everyone keeps punching this dude in the face

[moisaenz]

Isn't baynes about same weight?? wonder who is stronger?

[superbigtime]

I hate that guy.

[hater]

:lmao at the hate for this guy.

he hasn't done shit but put in hard work and hustle

:lmao spursfan

never seen a fanbase as scared of a team like Spursfan of Thunder :lol :lmao :lol

fucking pathetic

:lmao truth nuclear holocaust has been unleashed :lol

[hater]

LMAO Zbo is responsible for being stupid enough to punch a guy during a playoff game

[dg7md]

He's a scrub that will probably go 8-8 in a game against us.

[testies]

spurs players don't react to cheap shit, so he will be a nonfactor

in fact, i think CIA Pop will make Baynes do some cheap stuff himself

and we all know Aussies shit on Kiwis

[SpurPadre]

Isn't he responsible for Zbo having game 7 suspension?

Everybody knows Adams face rudely ran into Zbo's poor fist. Fuck the league for suspending Zbo but having ZERO issue with Ibaka punching a dude's dick.

[SpurPadre]

I'm more worried about Nick Collison than Adams, tbh. Motherfucker always gets hustle plays on us.

[Captivus]

This guy's job is to get under opposing players' skin and/or injure them. That's it.

The Spurs could use a little of that.

The day a Spurs has a role to injure players is the day I stop being a fan.

That didn't stop Spurs fans from wanting World Peace. Oh, but that goes against the narrative. I guess we file WP's actions under "mental toughness", whatever that means.

[LarryDavid]

Steven Adams = Rich man's Aron Baynes.

[Hoops Czar]

Steven Adams = Rich man's Aron Baynes. Seinfeld troll nailed it.

[Spurs da champs]

Bowen? This guy is a 7 foot Bowen he gets under people's skin & uses subtle dirty moves . Yet you're still a fan of the Spur?..:lol

[RD2191]

Adams is fucking garbage. Faggots trying to claim otherwise. :lmaol

[SupremeGuy]

Fuck dude, troll harder. I mean, there's some easily trolled people on this board but that shit won't catch anyone.

[Hoops Czar]

lol @ trying to use a hypothetical situation to troll spurfan

Fuck dude, troll harder. I mean, there's some easily trolled people on this board but that shit won't catch anyone.

Looks like I struck a nerve. The World Peace situation wasn't hypothetical to Spurs Fans like you. It was only hypothetical in the sense the Spurs had said they weren't interested in his services. If Adams was a Spurs, you'd be gagging on his genetalia

[Solid D]

Baynes or Ayres need to rough him up.

Good luck with that. He's like a rock with appendages. Nothing fazes Adams.

Fuck this fucking fuckface.

Team? If you can form a team from two or three people. Most of the talk that surrounded Daye was whether or not he would even be able to make the team. There was definitely NOT a large contingent that thought he would get playoff minutes. It was one of my favorite topics of conversation and I saw MAYBE two or three that thought he might get playoff minutes to spell someone off the bench. Most thought he might get cut or at best be a bench warmer even NEXT year...links please.

Make the team? That myth was dispelled two games after he arrived. Turns out it was nothing more than a premature ejaculation. I'm posting on my phone and I'm not home. Here's one link for now. I can assure you you'll find more than two or three people within this thread alone.

Typical for OKC player, tbh.

[Sean Cagney]

It's amazing how anyone who plays for OKC automatically turns into major douche.

He did when I first saw him :lol

[99 Problems]

People

big New Zealanders who come rugby background ain't no fake tough guys.

However, Adams is young, improved very fast at Pitt, and is a season or two off causing Spurs much trouble.

[Cowboys_Wear_Spurs]

He's a faggot. Baynes or Ayres need to rough him up.

Baynes will remind him who's the real enforcer and tough guy from down under.

[exstatic]

Bowen? This guy is a 7 foot Bowen he gets under people's skin & uses subtle dirty moves . Yet you're still a fan of the Spur?..:lol

Notice I didn't say anything about getting under someone's skin.

[testies]

he has such a weirdly shaped head

[urunobili]

lol

[poop]

This dude is gonna be a major gay factor. Look for him to block/harass/possibly injure our bigs. He will get few points but they will come at the most annoying time possible. Look for him to have at least one monster game with 15 rebounds and key offensive boards at the worst possible time.

[Spurs da champs]

Notice I didn't say anything about getting under someone's skin.
Bowen didn't intentionally try to injure other players? I've yet to notice Adams drop kick some or mess with their ankles...

[davidbowie]

Our goon Baynes is gonna skull fuucck this poser!

[Malice]

The fact that their are 3 fucking pages on this dude, is I needed to see. Confirms that he will have ZERO impact in this series....

[in2deep]

Ppl would felllate this guy daily if he was a spur :lol

[heyheymymy]

how is this guy so new yet i already fucking hate him. its like they got a douchier collison, and then kept collison.

douuuuuche-chills.
