<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Former UA player Hassan Adams is without a team or a job after being released by the New Jersey Nets in July. Adams said he's doing fine and may soon find out whether he'll be in a camp come October. He said news could come in the next couple of weeks, adding that San Antonio is a possibility.</div> Source Oh great.
Imagine, Hassan Adams win a championship ring before Jason Kidd, that would be sad. Like Matt Bonner before Chris Bosh, it makes me cringe what sh*t like that happens. A guy plays like 20-30 seconds at the end of the game and he wins a championship ring, it just pisses me off.
I like Adams. He is one off the few bench players on this team that can come out and produce. Hopefully he ends up here rather then the Spurs.
San Antonio would pick up Adams, as they know it would only extend the discussion here of how terrible it was that we cut him.</p> Aside from Scola, how many terrible moves have they made in the Duncan era? Any? And we haven't even seen Scola play yet. </p>
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (GM3)</div><div class='quotemain'>As much as I love my Nets I want Adams to succeed and shove it in Thorn's and L. Franks face.</div> </p> me too. and out-play Udoka.
I still don't understand why he was cut over Bernard Robinson. Is there something money-wise that I'm forgetting?

They would’ve had to buy him out at 75% of his $1million so 750,000 would've stayed on the books and they would've only saved 250,000; while waiving Hassan saved them close to 700K because his contract was not guaranteed being a 2nd round draft choice.
Adams being taught by Bruce and Manu would be a scary sight, if Adams truely put all his might into improving.

Adams is overrated, to be honest. Bernard Robinson--who may still be cut--was considered the best defender in college the year he came out, can allegedly guard every position, he's bigger than Adams, can actually play SG, SF, and PFfrom an offensive standpoint, and was relatively productive when given a chance to start two years ago.</p> When given a chance to start, Adams was terrible.</p>

I think Adams is a good energy guy but unless he improved his range since college, I doubt he'll ever be much of an SG offensively in the NBA. </p> </p> Hot Sauce=Hassan Adams for those who don't know me </p>
