2. Steven Adams

The Oklahoma City Thunder might take a step back without Kevin Durant this season, but the feud between them and the Golden State Warriors will be even more bitter. With the two teams already bitter rivals, things were turned up a notch with the Warriors adding Durant in free agency.

Emotions are going to be running high when these two teams meet each other. That means more battles between Steven Adams and Draymond Green. After the groin kicks and wrestling-style take downs, these two are guaranteed to get chippy again this season.

Refs are already going to be predisposed to watching these two very closely. Each one is going to get every little advantage they have on the other. This a feud that stays on the court, as they both embraced after the Western Conference Finals, but it’s going to continue regardless.

Adams has become even more popular in Oklahoma City in the wake of Durant leaving. He’s going to feel the pressure of sparking the Thunder alongside Russell Westbrook each game. If that means getting into it with Green to get the crowd fired up, he will.
