On a much less positive note, my opinion towards Dillon is really starting to sour. He’s a dog that you like having on your team most of the time, but A) his wild, high volume shooting has been killing us and B) what the hell was that hack on Payton last night?
Again, love the intensity he brings every night, but you have to weight the good and the bad with every player, and I’m getting real close to being ready to move on.

Went 5-12 from 3 last night and couldn't be stopped in the 4th.
He took over that game. Ice water in the veins.

Yeah, that swing at Payton's head was wild and out of control. Not good when someone is knocked off balance that hard...elbows then break.
I’m hoping the Grizz can make a run, but two things concern me:
1. Teams that rely on transition baskets typically don’t fare well in the playoffs where things slow down and become much more half-court oriented.
2. Teams that have an extreme imbalance in usage rate don’t have a great history in playoffs either. Both Memphis & Dallas need to find that complimentary piece so we can have a few Luka vs. Ja Western Conference showdowns.
I'm hoping getting Adams back helps with 1.
He will provide some much needed rebounding help and to provide an option of a "slow" half court with Ja. His top of the key pick game really helps with the slower half court offense. First series and first 2 games against GS just seem too herky jerky and feast/famine without his presence. Adams will help bring some stability when he's back. Question is will he be a defensive liability with a full-strength GS roster??

Probably had something to do with GP Jr. being out. That was a cheap shot btw. Cheering for Grizz but that was ugly.
I think the F2 was warranted. But I don't see where he was swinging at the guy's head. He was trying to foul him hard to prevent the layup/dunk, which has been happening in every playoff game in NBA history since the 60s.
Great on defense but IQ on offense is zero. If he happens to make his first shot he will jack up 10 more before he realizes that’s not his game. Dillion is ball stopper on both ends.
I’m fine with package him with our extra picks to add another stud to the team if possible.
Agreed. It wasn’t a dirty play as Kerr made clear what he thought. It was absolutely a flagrant 2 and he should have been tossed but he was fouling hard and wiffed on the ball. It’s very unfortunate that Payton got hurt on the play.
Brooks isn’t a dirty player, he just plays hard and goes 100 percent all the time. It is kind of ironic that Golden State fans and media are griping about Dillon when they have Draymond Green doing the same ****.

He just jacks up too many threes. He’s got a nice midrange and he’s pretty creative around the basket.
That depend on who GS plays at the 5. There are some matchups where Adams can absolutely smash them.
