I was listening to a podcast the other day and they were saying that’s the move you gotta make. Move Adams. If he is not even gonna be closing games for you....


Zach Lowe just dropped a podcast today that’s worth a listen. In it he basically said Adams is un-tradable. He’s due like 25M next year and 27M the year after. The easiest PnR matchup in the playoffs was Kanter and he couldn’t even expose that. Nobody else in the league is saying “we could really use Adams if we want to make the next step.”

He’s good for the regular season and for battling other bigs 1 on 1. But a high PnR against Lillard? Harden? Curry? Forget about it.

Lillard showed a social-media clip of him telling Westbrook, “Stop running from this arse whoopin’,” as Lillard grew weary of Westbrook switching off him, while Lillard continued to be Westbrook’s primary defender. And what came out of Westbrook’s mouth during a few of his post-basket outbursts was the B-word, something most players wouldn’t dismiss without an altercation. “The way I see it, it’s basketball,” Lillard told Yahoo Sports. “I know I ain’t no b-----arse mother------; so it doesn’t bother me. “I’m not out here to prove to these dudes that I’m the hardest mother------ in the league because they cussed at me on the court. But they know where I’m from and what I’m about. This Oakland. But I don’t take s--- personal. My goal is to get the win.”

What's up with all the radioheads saying Dame's shot was like some all time great playoff buzzer beater??

It was a great shot but I mean let's be real. They were up in the series 3-1 and the game was tied. If he misses and they go to overtime. Can still win. If they lose the game. Still heavy favorite to close out 1 of the next 2 games.

Also he just dribbled up there court and chilled for 6 seconds and chunked up the shot. Wasn't any pressure on him or some last second heave.

Was a great shot, don't get me wrong. But will be something very forgettable in the next couple of years unlike other buzzer beaters\performances weve seen in the playoffs in recent history.
