Yeah, as far as Adams, I thought he played well.
One thing that bothered me was he missed four free throws really early on in the game.
Kind of surprised Phoenix didn't start going with Hack Adams because of that, but at the same time, Rockets' offense wasn't exactly hitting on all cylinders.
So, you know, 100-point game probably β
Yeah, you know, I mean, I'm one of Jabari's biggest fans.
I certainly, since, you know, pre-draft and everything, I really believe this is the kind of guy who I think fits into a championship-style team.
You know, a potential elite role player, that kind of thing.
We've talked about that before.
But I'm saying that to set up the fact that I was very frustrated at half.
because he didn't play well against Dallas.
And you heard me venting about it, because he was, I thought, throwing up some bricks.
And when the other team's going 10 for 18 from three, and he's not hitting shots, you're right.
He's not providing a ton of value, specifically him.
Granted, he wasn't shooting a ton.
I think he'd only taken like five shots in the first half.
But I really think if you don't, there were a lot of comments I saw on Twitter, or a couple anyway, saying he provides nothing for this team.
And that was at halftime.
Go watch the second half.
Just watch his defensive effort.
I know that, you know, Tari gets the headline or a man or whatever, but this is a 6'11 player who can switch, can pick up on Booker, can pick up on Brooks, takes on Mark Williams when needed.
