    Covington can easily surpass 40% from the three with his height, open looks he will be getting on this team, and especially once he has settled down and in rhythm with team offense.

    The best part?

    He is fearless when it comes to taking big threes.

    Right... clearly a product of the rockets system. Morey is a genius. He doesn’t make decisions based on a feeling. He saw something. WB is now our big-man in the paint on offense (against anyone guarding him).

    Omg, was I wrong about Roco. Obviouly the game slowed down for him. He was calmly taking those 3 pointers, two HUGE 3s in the pivotal 4 quarter when the game was too close for comfort. Also, Roco was great on defense with so many deflections.

    What a game!

    Roco has a strap from 3 for sure. Deep range too.

    He was forced into a lot of tough contested 3s in Minny. Getting the open looks he will in Rockets system, he's going to THRIVE.
