    More New Zealand fans might flock here because of Adams.

    Also: Steven Adams (kiwi) and Jock Landale (Aussie). :eek:

    Nope.
    He is slow, unathletic, non 3pt-shooting C drafted as mid-FRP.
    Floor is Landale, ceiling is Tom Gugliotta

    Are you name calling in good faith?

    Blek? Bleac?

    What is a Blek citizen?

    This is a new twist, I thought it was in 10 as 30 being the new 20, but if we use our imagination we could make 75 the new 50

    My grandfather died at 61. My father is 74 and still younger than him. Not even close. Last century has been quite a ride for humanity.

    Edit: He beat 2 cancers on the way might I add.

    Keep ya head up

    Its been quite a ride for humanity since time immemorial (pre 3500 bc)

    Allegedly.....Disease is all mucus build up in the body and a patent number, the mucus comes from the cloned food that a lot consume under fast food/junk/acidic sections

    Its plenty of electric herbs that would purify the blood which would eliminate cancer and preserve the good cells while removing the bad ones, but if they tell you that then the big time pharma/hospitals would lose $$$, and they would rather keep you in bad health and coming back for band aid treatment instead of giving you the natural cure because they can only survive by having people come back to get another band aid ($$$ = visit/surgery/addictive meds etc)

    Which is why they created a bunch of names for diff diseases, another $$$ grab

    Thanks for advice. I’d like to consciously stay inside the borders that we evolved for, to live healty. Both physically and mentally, as much as possible. In the long term, works better most of the time for most of the people from what I witnessed, than relying on anaphylaxis.

    Are you feeling a sense of Bobandonment?

    Talk to your doctor about Marjata.

    So even though Oladipo's salary was just sitting there about to expire, Grizz gets some lux tax relief. The deal technically costs Rockets 5 second round picks for Steven Adams.

    * Rockets gave KPJ + 2 second rounds to MIA for Oladipo's contract and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl.
    * Rockets give Dipo + 3 second rounds to MEM.​

    Five 2nd rounders are not nothing. Less of a trading for a better contract, but more that Rockets seems to be counting on Adams to play next season, based on the expenditures spent.
