    “League sources say the Lakers have been attempting to use the contracts of Gabe Vincent ($11 million this season, $11.5 million next) and Maxi Kleber ($11 million this season; $11 million next season) in this pursuit.”

    He's always been that way but I will tell you what, if there's a fight the other team does not want ANYTHING to do with Adams. They will literally stop all talking the moment Adams comes to break it up

    true.. he’s never eaten this many layups like this though.. I guess he’ll never be 100%..his offensive rebounding is still amazing.. but speaking of fighting where even was he during the Thompson and heat throwdown.. i just wish he had brooks attitude with that Goliath strength

    This video made me wish we had Adams to go at Draymond in the Harden years.

    We need to re-sign Adams.

    Historic franchise X factor for a guy that only plays 30-40 games a season .

    Fts are going to be a problem in the playoffs, but he is a solid backup center. I’d like to see a more athletic option next year. Naz Reid would be a perfect fit as you would have multiple options at pf/c in Alpi, Naz, Jabari, and Tari. Double down on athleticism this off-season., plus Naz, Jabari, and Tari can all shoot.

    It's been well worth the long fwait for Adams to get healthy. He's ramped up and productive just when the Rockets needed him the most.

    He should be played a lot in the 1st and 3rd quarters without Sengun. This 2 tower stuff may work a bit against certain lineups, but the playoffs are going to be a different animal. We need Sengun to bring the energy in the 4th quarter, because hack an Adams willl become a real thing if the score is close. The playoffs are an absolute grind and Ime's penchant for overworking his players is going to cost us. FVV, Sengun, and even Amen will be severely affected by tired legs the longer the Rockets survive.

    Agree with you except one playoff series shouldn't be much of a grind. There are no B2Bs. If they advance to the second round, then we'll see.

    Looks like he's making Sheppard feel like a child.
