    At this point, I don't feel like I can really predict anything anymore, so I might as well be all-in on this and see how the ride goes.

    Covington whooped rockets in a regular season game with okogie scoring a little bit.

    Now rockets wanted to get Covington and get under luxury tax.

    Warriors didn’t win the title last year so I’m pretty sure he was talking about the two years prior to that my dood

    Capela had plenty of time to actually develop an “offensive” game..got exposed over and over that’s why he’s gone but center is a glossary term that doesn’t exist in position less basketball my dood

    AD is the only challenge there I think. The other centers I am worried about are joker and Lopez. The other guys you listed just need to be kept off the boards which is not easy but alot more manageable.

    Want to see him run with Russ and get alleys from Harden.

    Surprisingly good passer and ball handler for a big.

    No, more boards dont necessarily lead to more point opportunities. More offensive boards do.

    But so do turnovers. And FTs. Rockets are destroying opposing teams in these areas with smallball.

    Rockets also leading in shots taken.

    This is comforting considering how often you get things wrong. Thanks DD. I am no longer stressed about this.

    yeah, gonna be fun to watch, gonna be a real contender hands down.
    Stephen A on espn talk about the trade, MDA and his system, needless to say he is a long time MDA hater, but his points about 'winning' and 'competing' worth pondering.
