I watched a fair amount of the Nuggets-T-Wolves game from across a restaurant last night and Adams was at the end of the bench the entire night. Hopefully he gets some minutes and gets a chance to prove himself.
 
Don't want to jinx him, but nance is playing amazing right now. Tune in to ESPN 2! A few "Larry! Larry!" chants have broken out, very cool to see.
 
Josh Adams looked good last night. He was doing his thing. Dribbling over the top of screens hitting 3's, dropping dimes, and taking it strong to the hole. Nice debut for him last night. The Nuggets website has highlights of the game. Hope he gets more playing time now. From what I witnessed last night, he's earned it.

I haven't been able to get stats or highlights on my phone. Does anyone know a site with good stats for mobile?

Edit: I'm able to get stuff on NBA.com now that I have a wifi connection.
 
Adams had 7 points, 4 rebounds and two assists in 13:33. Link to stats:

I was disappointed in not seeing Josh in action Friday nite, but good to hear he played Sat nite, and Larry is a bad mo fo and we've all known that for quite sometime, LOL

My guess is the only reason he saw time was the starters (Mudiay and Harris) didn't play. Josh came in behind the no D playin' Jimmer Fedette. Fedette's stat line may have looked good but that kid dosen't make anyone around him better. I sure hope the Nuggets aren't dumb enough to sign him. Josh did have a solid game. I think he deserves more minutes as well, but I don't see it unless Mudiay and/or Harris sit again. We'll see tonight against the Justise Winslowless Miami Heat.
 
I haven't seen the games but it doesn't look like he's playing too great. He really needs to hit the 3 ball if he wants a chance anywhere.
 
It looks to me that they have Josh playing conservatively. As if they have a leash on him. Just as with Larry last year. Both are rhythm shooters. Larry's role last season with the Lakers was to get put-back baskets and chase down everyone else's rebounds. When Larry did shoot a jumpshot, which was rare last season, he looked out-of sync. Now, since Walton has given him the green light, he looks to be back in rhythm again. The Nuggets have not utilized Josh's explosiveness and rarely does he shoot. Therefore, he is out-of-sync just as Larry was last season. However, the Nuggets draft picks and Jimmer are still firing away. The Nuggets need to let Josh play Josh's game. It's hard to evaluate him in 12-15 minutes per game and with him averaging just 3 shots. Give the kid 20+ minutes and 10-12 shots and then we'll see. I could be wrong about this as the NBA is a huge transition for any player but Josh isn't playing his style of game. He is just being used as a roster spot it seems.

Hmm, basketball player fall on a hand/wrist, could be a scaphoid fracture. Put a pin in it and he's out 6-8 weeks. Not great, but certainly not the end of the world.
