Speaking of the "tank" physique, most women tend to favor it, and even those with smaller frames lack it. Those strong and powerful arms! In the NBA over the past 20 years, there have been only five guards with this "tank" physique. Let's take a look at who has this physique!
The first one that comes to mind is, of course, Kobe Bryant. He was nicknamed the "Little Malone," and at his peak, he maintained a weight of over 200 kilograms. Playing as a shooting guard, he was incredibly tough, especially in post-up situations. Watch how he challenges Yao Ming's defense. Kobe Bryant's physique was even more impressive than Yao Ming's.
The second one is Baron Davis. Older fans might remember him as the leader of the Golden State Warriors during the "We Believe" miracle. He was known as the Shaquille O'Neal of the backcourt and had a very strong body. While his muscle definition wasn't extreme, he had substantial muscle mass. He could dunk and play above the rim effortlessly. If it weren't for injuries, he would have been one of the strongest guards in the league.
The third is Dwyane Wade. In his prime, Wade was known for relying on his body to succeed, and his slashing was virtually unstoppable. Wade had a fluid style of play, including various dunks and shot-blocking, which was fascinating to watch. During his time with the Miami Heat, he often played as a combo guard, which naturally developed his physique. Wow... just look at his muscles, whether it's the muscle definition or thickness, they're perfect. His physique was a testament to the "it's not the size but how you use it" saying, as he stood only 5 centimeters taller than Jordan.
The fourth is James Harden. You might be surprised to see him on the list, but his muscles were definitely underestimated. His muscle definition might not be very pronounced, but he had more than enough mass. His strong lower body contributed to his excellent low-post defense. We're lucky to have seen his muscles during training. If Harden always had this level of muscularity, he'd remain the top point guard in the league.
The fifth is Russell Westbrook. Currently, Westbrook has faced various criticisms, and he himself is quite perplexed. In his early NBA career, he was highly regarded and then became the scapegoat. Westbrook also played with a dynamic, fluid style, which remains largely unchanged today. He is absolutely unstoppable on the fast break or when driving to the hoop, earning him the nickname "The Brodie." As for his chest muscles, they are so well-developed in a relaxed state that he probably can't find a second one. |
