Who is the strongest player in the NBA?

[tlongII]

According to Channing Frye it's Oden...


Mike Barrett: "You came back from Vegas where you worked with the US team, and I remember you sat down with me after you had just played with Greg, and you said, "That is a beast," and you'd been playing with Dwight Howard and Amare Stoudemire."

Channing Frye: "Oh... I'm going to tell you this, and somebody may disagree with me. He's the strongest guy in the league right now. Hands down. As a twenty year old guy, he is the strongest guy in the league..."

Mike Rice: "...And he's gotten stronger."

Channing Frye: "Yes, and he's gotten stronger, and I think what's going to help him is being around guys that know what's going to be good for him, so once he establishes, "Okay, this is how I'm going to play..." You know, Greg, he can hit that ten to twelve foot jumper. Now if you're going to play him that close, who're you going to... I mean, I'm excited about next year, man, so hopefully, you know, everything is going to work out and I'm going to continue to stay here, you know, because you never know what's going to happen, so that's why I'm here...

still shaq

Danny Fortson is pretty damn strong. I've actually never seen someone that could be that much shorter and actually keep Shaq from moving around. Unfortunately his short size allowed Shaq to go right over the top, but Shaq always seemed to have issues with actually moving Fortson around.

It will be interesting to see Oden vs Shaq.

Shaq has enough pride to bust Oden's ass at least one game.

[stretch]

shaq is a bitch

[xtremesteven33]

Ron Artest is one of the strongest

[Red Hawk #21]

Shaq

[bonesinaz]

Call me crazy, but I haven't seen Oden play much in the NBA yet. I bet he gets tired after an 82 game season just like every other player does.

[Medvedenko]

Earl Boykins

Earl Boykins

oddly enough, i hear that he can bench like 315 or something ridiculous like that, and is fucking strong as hell.

Kevin Durant.

Kevin Durant.

lol, 135 lbs

[Pistons < Spurs]

Ben Wallace

that's cuz of his tiny little t-rex arms, he doesn't have to push the bar that far.

Dwight Howard?

+1:lmao

[m33p0]

Earl Boykins
pound for pound - definitely.

He doesn't count. That's like talking about the strength of rhinoceros beetles, ants, etc.

I'd like to see Oden next year against Shaq, Yao and Dwight Howard.

Too bad Greg Oden showed signs of stupidity during his year off, he looks so wise!

He will get in foul trouble so often.

Oddly enough, that is a great analogy.

Ben Wallace is strong, but even though he held shaq in check for years, shaq is stronger. I would venture to say, right now, D-Howard is the strongest.

Huh?

[tlongII]

He will definitely have foul issues early in the year. It will take a while for him to get used to the officials and for the officials to get used to him. He's smart though, so he'll adjust.

[Cry Havoc]

Yao Ming is probably one of the most underestimated players, strength wise. That guy has massive legs. He doesn't have as much upper body strength, but he's probably got one of the most powerful lower frames in the history of the league.

[tlongII]

Oden is a freaking beast!

[Lake_show]

Dwight Howard

[Anti.Hero]

Kwame Brown

[HeyIt'sMe]

It's still Shaq first and then this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cv0bXTqD4lQ

[Sportcamper]

I just know that the strongest person in the NBA plays for the Celtics...
Kendrick Perkins , P.J. Brown , Glen Davis, Leon Powe...One or all of those guys...

[Tacker]

Ben Wallace??

[ATRAIN]

I think Durant is the weakest.

[ATRAIN]

Dwight Howard

I would say so to

[Gino]

Has to be Dwight Howard.

[tlongII]

Oden is stronger than Howard, no question about that.

[HeyIt'sMe]

Oden is stronger than Howard, no question about that.

Based on what? A homer teammate's opinion and a bunch of speculation by Portland writers? Please.

[BiZNicK]

Paul Gasol

[Dex]

I am gonna laugh my ass off if Oden turns out to be Kwame Brown II.

[nashzilla]

pound for pound nate robinson. i read he can rep over 300 lbs. bench pressing, not to mention he plalyed defensive back at U of W.

[stretch]

Paul Gasol

never heard of him

[BiZNicK]

never heard of him

I americanized his name :downspin:

[dirk4mvp]

I think Durant is the weakest.


He can probably bench more than Nash.

[Spurtacus]

Sasha Vujacic?

Yikes. Lots of strength there!

[mojorizen7]

My vote goes to Shaq. I can't think of anybody who can still get off a dunk attempt with 3 guys climbing his back. Thing is....he used to be able to convert them.
