Sports Illustrated has released their annual list of the top players in the NBA, and unsurprisingly, the Thunder have multiple representatives. Russell Westbrook (7), Paul George (11), and Steven Adams (38) are prominently featured, and thus begins the debate as to whether they are too high or too low. Or in other words, which players ahead of them shouldn’t be.
There’s just no working around the fact that Adams is a proper giant. He can wipe out a guard with a screen and bulldoze a big with a roll.
