    Unbelievable.

    Morey should be moving" heaven and earth" to get size at the wing for this team. Covington fits the bill.

    Don’t hate me but I see the Warriors packaging DLo and Draymond to Wash for Beal+1st+assets and might be 3 team trade. Moves Klay to wing where his size and D fits and they use their assets to beef up the front line. Just like Durant Beal takes pressure from ballhandling duties off of Steph. He is really more of a combo guard but relegated because of size and lack of D.

    Man this would be great. His health is a red flag tho (as many have already noted).

    Assuming good health, he’d push Gordon back into that awesome 6th man role. That really balances the team out and I’d be so psyched.

    Yup. Either way, terrible decision. It was to keep one of the two, and we ended up letting go of both by the ASB and our roster was short a man.

    I think Covington is damaged goods. Gersson knows him and his value and is selling. It’s pretty obvious. My bet is it is more like Luc with the knee and he had cumulative damage and shredded the meniscus. Every single time you run, jump, or even bang that knee it is going to be the size of a balloon and have to be drained. It is going to be constantly sore and just steal all of his athleticism. We just dealt with this with Knight.

    I’m all in for Covington. I just got on CF hoping someone had a thread going already. Make it happen, Cap’n.

    Covington might be one of the best role players in the NBA. Give them all the picks.

    NOBODY WANTS For the love of everything rational please stop with this guys. That’s like signing and trading a bag of boogers for an all expense paid trip to Fiji.

    Two of those might be the same people.

    Trade the first username and one fourth of the posters would suddenly go quiet here.

    The Wolves wish it was just $25M. He has 4 more years, $27,270,000 $29,290,000 $31,310,000 $33,330,000

    In all seriousness, I’m a huge fan. Would give up a lot for him. He’s better than Gordon if he’s healthy, but for this year we probably need Gordon more.

    I know, that's why I said "I wish". I even explained myself more a few posts later.

    Injury risk on this guy is probably higher than CP3. Great talent, but way too risky and you’d overpay with picks to get him.

    Just another example of the disrespect Eric Gordon has on here btw.
