Adams's D last year maybe. He was spotty this year, had he been consistent they'd have been a far better team

Adams's regression is puzzling. It's not like anything he did was complicated or could be gamed against. No injures, no role change. Yet now he sucks

I think his role has changed; Gibson has taken over the first team paint-scoring and position. They like to feed Russ all the defensive rebounds to start breaks and because Adams is fast for his size he's often also defending further out. He used to just stand in the paint.

He'd better hope not, otherwise he is due to fall off a cliff mid next season.

Thunder have been moving so quickly on defense that Houston's pick and roll can't really develop. wonder if they'll be able to keep the intensity up as the game winds on

this feels like a repeat of game 2's 1st half. i hope the 2nd half is a repeat, also

Maybe but Gibson was a late season add and he sucked before that. The loss of Durant's spacing obviously hurt everyone on o but he got worse at everything

He was at 8ppg last season. Jan/Feb he was up at 13 and it's dipped below 10 again as Gibson was phased in.
