    Not really, I have said all year he hurts the overall team, and Ime plays him too much, the team will be better without him playing most nights, but they will miss him on some nights.

    I don't wish him injured - come on now....just hoping we might find ourselves playing better without him.

    I actually think Dwight is probably currently better than Capela. Dwight is still serviceable, just probably blackballed by teams

    I don’t think you’re right here, Adams at times does hurt our spacing but he is as impactful as they come. It’s one of the reasons Reed can also be effective since he protects the rim so much

    missing him is going to be a death sentence

    Durant pick and pop with Bari is good.

    Ime is a self fulfilling prophecy. Overplays a stupid double big lineup and it results in an injury. Fortunately he’ll have to play better lineups. Unfortunately we won’t have Adam’s on the few occasions we actually need him.

    Really hope Adams comes back for the playoffs.

    I think Capela helps more - same rebounding rate but a rim runner who can finish......just think Adams is a 3rd option that shouldn't play much - but we shall see....we sure look better right now without him clogging the lane.

    Careful DD ;)

    This ain’t gonna make Reed see more minutes! In fact, maybe the opposite. Steve & Reed came in together.

    What @LosPollosHermanos said.

    With Adams out, it’s time to bring the big fella off the broadcast bench.

    It’s Ryan Hollins Time.
