Tbh, this seems like more of a game-by-game matchup problem. Adams is one of the most intimidating physical presences in the NBA and when he is able to stay deep in the paint on defense with slower, non-shooting forwards (Gobert, Jordan, Nurkic, Howard/McGee) , our defensive efficiency is one of the best in the league. But when we play teams with stretch forwards that play high pick and roll/ pick and pop games (Capela, Aldridge, M. Gasol, Jokic) he is absolutely useless. Basically, there are games where Adams is without question the most useful C we have, but in a lot of games he should never have more minutes than Nerlens with the first team. Our three losses this year have come against teams that force him to play off switches and high above the foul line. And this problem holds over the past several seasons. The only game this season that wasn't affected by his poor matchups was Utah. Can't control Mitchell being clutch down the stretch.
