    Steven Adams and his Oklahoma City Thunder have exited the NBA's playoffs in a manner that will be living rent free in his head all off-season

    Steven Adams and his Oklahoma City Thunder have exited the NBA's playoffs in a manner that will be living rent free in his head all off-season


    The Thunder have lost their first round series against the Houston Rockets, going down in a winner takes all game seven 104-102.

    OKC had an inbounds pass with 1.1 seconds left which was fired in Adams' direction but he couldn't take it cleanly in order to put up a three-pointer for the win.

    The Rockets face the Lakers next.
