bad science...moon 440k miles away, nearest star 20 trillion miles away...if you miss the moon you will drift through space for about 54 million miles before you come upon anything else.
+MARY SHELLEY Be tall and talented, just because you're tall doesn't mean you'll make the NBA, you still gotta compete and beat the other tall guys, so you gotta be a better athlete for a tall guy. Plus he's lucky he didn't grow up in the USA eating mcdonalds
He's not just tall though. He's 7 FEET tall which means he has to compete against 99% of NBA players that are smaller than him. At 7' tall basketball ain't exactly a chess game. Get the ball in the hole. LMAO
But there's a lot less 7 footers in the NBA now than there used to be, not because there's less 7 footers in the world but because the game changed in ways that made being 7 foot less of an advantage if you're not skilled and built well also, just like 10 years ago the average power forward was at least 6'10 and now a lot of them are like 6'7. So he is one of the more talented 7 footers in the world otherwise everybody in the world who was 7 foot would be in the NBA
Wow. RIP McFadden. He was such a noble and kind man. Steven has definitely brought class, talent, and power to the NBA while remaining humble and the model for true sportsmanship.
his foster mum is the real mvp. what a beautiful, amazing lady. she must be so damn proud of him. Adams is most likeable big man in the nba. no ego. huge talent, athletic ability, and pretty much unstoppable in the paint. he's like a much fitter shaq but he can jump and shoot free throws.
Thank you ALL in this video for rising a good person and developing his mind and making his dreams possible. He hasn’t wasted anything y’all sacrificed. He is loved in OKC. And respected all throughout the basketball community. I know with his wealth he has given back to those who supported him and his family. Great story all together 🙂🙃🙂🙃🙂🙃
i went to scots college last 2 years and she was one of the boarding house matron. She was one of the nicest person I've ever met. I understand why he likes her
porzingis aint a center. he will be stepping into dirk's path as shooting big man. he can play as center just like dirk does but adams will always be the better center
So fortunate that his brother and Blossom helped him get the start and support that he needed, looks like he has a mean team behind him and it's paying dividends.
Wait, Steve was from Rotorua? Big props then for going from sulfur country to the NBA! Especially getting on the right track at that age in that location
This is one of the better examples of Capitalism at its finest. From four t-shirts and two pairs of shoes to playing with Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant, Paul George, Carmelo Anthony and a few other HOF’s and making over $100 million dollars.
I mean hard to say they all were playing pro basketball before him like his brothers I think for sure he would of imo but I guess you will never know but yea imo he would of
...and 6 years later he got himself a 100 million dollar contract. Steven is da man
kilen9me5skilen fuck what have I acheived in last 6yrs lol
kilen9me5skilen and 100 million for only averaging 12 and 7. Impressive.
+Coley Higdon u do it then
Anton woah pal. Never said it WASNT impressive. A lot of people 7'0+ don't even sniff the NBA lol, 12 and 7 is impressive. I was simply stating facts.
Coley Higdon totally deserved the way he‘s playing this season
I'm really proud of where Steve's now really
Lea Petrelli agreed
Go Steve.
Now i understand why he was so mature on court. Lot of respect to him.
"you shoot for the moon, and if you miss you will be amongst the stars" -dat philosophy 10/10 :)
he should tell that to his team mate andre roberson
Chris Tanada hahaha
bad science...moon 440k miles away, nearest star 20 trillion miles away...if you miss the moon you will drift through space for about 54 million miles before you come upon anything else.
Orc Lover nearest star is the sun, 149.6 million km away :/
" I felt bad because after I left, they had to go shopping"- Steven Adams
And to think Draymond Green can't stop kicking this guy in the nuts.
lmao
Ahahahabababab omg
This legitimate made cry
Came a long way lmaooo
It's sad that he's never gonna have kids. :(
TheNBAFreak why won't he have kids
Pels fan before the boogie Trade
Lol ask Draymond Green
Joey Thompson wait for REAL!!!!
Just because he kicked him in he Nuts mean that he can't have kids!!!!! Really
Awesome 20188 no it’s a joke
LilSwissVevo oh lol ok
Moral of the story is be tall.

Steven Scummy

Steven Scummy no being 7 foot helps yiu tremendouly getting into the nba

i went to scots college last 2 years and she was one of the boarding house matron. She was one of the nicest person I've ever met. I understand why he likes her
Wow such a truly humble dude at heart
He really could be the best center in the world in a few years.
Ya if it wasn't for Godzingis Porzingod lmfao
porzingis aint a center. he will be stepping into dirk's path as shooting big man.
he can play as center just like dirk does but adams will always be the better center
Best center in Boogie,no debate
He's one of the Best Defensive Centers in the League.
Wow, this is inspiring. I'm glad I came across his story. Fighting through adversity and succeeding.
Freaking love you adams! I can't wait to watch you become a star! An allstar.
he already is
+Ez ra Bruh this comment was 2 years ago
Atta boy, always good to see a kiwi succeeding in the states
I like how he used to look like Henry Cavill's superman and years later now he looks like Jason Momoa's Aquaman
Who's here after seeing him become 100 million dolla man lol
He just beat the most winning regular season team in history in game 1 of the Wester Conference Finals.

Then he choked it lol

So fortunate that his brother and Blossom helped him get the start and support that he needed, looks like he has a mean team behind him and it's paying dividends.
He is living the dream. ....good on you steven!! And cheering you on against the spurs and hopefully a ring.......nba!
Thats story is like the Basketball Version of Blind Side

He kinda looks like Khal Drogo..
skalawitz hahah
Polynesian mixed with Caucasian just like khal drogo
skalawitz - Looks like Roman Reigns too.
This was such a great story
STEVEN ADAMS, NEVER CHANGE!
10 years later, he and Kayla are still together
I'm sure he's grown a few cms since then, and he's 7" now, coz he doesn't look 7" in the video.
They said he was malnourished before, that may have had stunted his growth that's why he's 7 since 17
get that coach a scouting job. He knew what he was seeing
It’s a she
@@finn54123 he meant his coach, the black dude - not the woman looking after him
@@Sulu-sw3zo oh
Wait, Steve was from Rotorua? Big props then for going from sulfur country to the NBA! Especially getting on the right track at that age in that location

too bad the moon is thousands of light years closer than the closest star to our planet
aidan rezvani closest star is less than 4 and a half light years away, but still a lot further than the moon.
People have been on the sun
And if you miss the moon you will continue to travel through the vacuum of space on a trajectory toward the stars
