Houston Rockets center Steven Adams made a joke on Instagram, following Joe Mazulla's thoughts that the NBA lacks some fighting.

"$20, I punch Rudy Gobert square in the nose," Adams made a comment while tagging the Minnesota Timberwolves big man.

Unfortunately, Adams later confirmed on his Instagram that the comment was removed.

Recently, Celtics head coach Joe Mazulla argued that the NBA should include fighting and power play.

"The biggest thing that we rob people of, from an entertainment standpoint, is you can't fight anymore. I wish you could bring back fighting... what's more entertaining than a little scuffle?" Mazzulla said to NBC Sports.
