    Yeah, I was just messing around.

    Houston also let go of Jeremy Lin and then signed him to a contract that had to later be moved with draft compensation. Same with Ryan Anderson. These mistakes are adding up in my opinion.

    Tyus or Rose, Saric and Covington would be a dream haul

    He would be a nice fit, but what would we have to give up.

    Would love it if the wolves took that deal. Saric would be such a great fit. Tall agile dude who can hit the three.

    why everyone is so excited about Saric? From what I've seen, he isn't that great. How's his defense? Can he rebound?

    I haven't looked yet, but can Saric's salary fit into the Ryan Anderson TPE?

    He’s not a great one-on-one defender, but he was fine as a team defender when paired with a rim-protecting center like Embiid.

    This deal would be fantastic for us. We get a starting calibur wing and big who can knock down threes to boot.

    They got rid of Covington because he was terrible at the time. He shot 17-64 in the 2014 Summer League.

    I like Saric, but he has struggled this year and is locked into his position at the 4 with very little versatility to play the 3 or 5. He's not an excellent rebounder, defender, nor deadeye shooter. We'd be relying on him being an overall playmaker and with Harden and CP3 here the ball would never be in his hands. I still think he'd help us with every team except for the Warriors so I'd be down to get him.

    Gordon, a first and House plus a second rounder along with a filler from the Wolves would be my guess.

    Yes.

    $2.584 from Ryno
    $2.526 for Saric

    Dallas mouthpiece. Nothing to do with the Rockets.

    I've been really impressed with his growth throughout his career. People here are acting like the Covington we gave up is the Covington of today. All the credit goes to him for really turning it on.
