Hack-a-Adams

[Old School 44]

As much as I hate the strategy, I would have went after Adams a few times to see if they could have gotten him off the floor. If nothing else, it could make the Thunder hesitant to use him down the stretch if Okc thought the Spurs would wrap him up.

except he hits his throws.

Adams shot 58% for the year, he shot 2-6 in game 5. Even Roberson shot poorly for the year at 50%.

FIFY

Hack-a-Adams wont work when the ref's call fouls on plays like the one
where Adams did a cart-wheel flop and ended up on the line......Pop
wont put in Boban to stop NoKC runs with hacks....

I know he's not Howard, Capela or Drummond, but he looked shaky last night. After four consecutive misses (unintentional fouls), they needed to test him by fouling intentionally. If he misses a few more, Donovan may have to make a decision. They can even try this with Roberson.

In the last two minutes, Adams will be reluctant to hold the ball and teammates (particularly Westbrook) will be reluctant to pass it to him. Him missing can even spread to the team. I know you've seen it throughout the league (even with the Spurs), somebody on the team starts shooting poorly from the line and next thing you know everyone's missing.
