[O'Connor] Sources: A three-way deal was discussed to send Robert Covington to Houston

That’s a solid deal though..

 

NBA reporters twitter just live to troll folks like us.

 

Chris Haynes mentioned on Around the Horn or PTI a day or two before the trade happened

 

Or they have bills to pay lol

 

cmon @KellyUnchained quit playing with us

 

Just broke my F5 button, bought a new computer, then broke my new F5 button

 

I just dont buy your case

I provided plenty of evidence of us winning despite playing 2 non-shooter.

Your evidence is " playoffs" and that relies on 1 series vs 1 team. It ignores the fact that clint was key to us beating min and utah. even last year MDA was desperate to play clint vs utah even though clint was in the hospital with illness.

weve never had a playoff series with russ as our pg. there is plenty of evidence this year that lineups with russ and clint in them can win.

so you keep alluding to these nightmares harden has when we dont play all shooters around him .. and i just dont see it.

Russ' teams have also produced good offenses, this despite playing him and adams at the same time.

All the evidence points to the fact that it can be done. I feel like youre the one refusing to see it

 

*Deadline passes and it's reported that Nene and a 2RP are traded to *Random Team* for nothing*

Rockets: Some variation of "We were close with major moves.......confident with current team.....increasing flexibility.....etc."

Clutchfans: *webpage crashes like after last year's trade deadline*

Book it!

 

"We really like our roster how it is, and will look at the buyout market."

 

I don't see how anyone who follows the rockets closely can actually post this and in 2020. sorry

@RudyTBag said it best. if you don't see how harden needs at least 3 spacers next to him, we just won't ever agree

that's ok. carry on

 

Looney ate Capelas lunch in the playoffs, perfect enforcing rebounder and finisher for us.

 

I hope this isn’t just The Athletic colleagues executing their social media shill strategy

 

I guess I feel CC can bring a star/impact or potential star player. He's a top 7 or 8 center? On a sweet contract. Headed to the East, where he'll do damage. RoCo and Looney DO fill needs to be sure. And, both are on good contracts.

 

People who think Covington is overrated must think Tucker is overrated too. He's a great defender with length, that can shoot, and is on a team friendly contract for the next couple of years. That doesn't mean he's as good as Capela, but we know he'll fit in perfectly.

 

Random, but Wiggins would actually help this team..........that's literally how anemic our forward rotation is.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if Capela's numbers took a noticeable dip if/when he is traded. Not to say he isn't talented, but Clint gets alot of his due to Harden's gravity. Remove that and I think we'll see a different player.

 

@ch44 @cyberx @CHI @Codman @Plowman any updates?!?!

 

Oh they definitely trolling
