    Get. This. Man. Here.

    This team can win it all with the right piece adjustment. Roco has the potential to be that.

    Exactly. I don't think people realize how perfect of a fit he would be here.

    i know you are being sarcastic but we actually do need an upgrade over PJ. he is getting up there in age and is zero threat on offense. his defense lately has been solid but he probably should not be starting in the NBA.

    i dont think we should trade clint for covington if we cant get a decent big in return. we cannot win in the playoffs playing small all game.

    i really cant believe so many of you want to give away our only big for this guy. he could have an impact on this team WITH clint. if we had him, PJ and clint, with our switching, i think we could get a lot more stops, but roco instead of clint ? you get one more perimeter defender and then have zero rim protection. i dont think that is a great trade off.

    Crazy.
    I dont think we trade Clint for Roco without a C as well.
    Both trades would be set before anything is done.

    The Rockets aren't trading away Capela without getting at least some kind of replacement at center. Trust me, Morey's not foolish enough to think they can win a title with PJ Tucker playing the bulk of the minutes at C LMAO.

    Hard to believe how overrated Roco has become.

    What's the big fuss for Robert Covington? Trading for him wont move the needle.

    Couldn't you have snatched them up at the Super Bowl, they were there for the taking. ;)

    We don't know that pretty sure everyone thought Lou Williams was the perfect fit for Rockets roster.

    Robert Covington Likely To Be Traded With Mavericks, Rockets, Bucks Interested

    The Minnesota Timberwolves have remained engaged in trade talks centered on Robert Covington.

    The Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets and Milwaukee Bucks have expressed interest in trading for Covington.

    The Mavericks and Rockets discussed trades with Minnesota dating back to the offseason. The Mavericks can offer a 2020 second round pick from the Golden State Warriors, which will be one of the first selections in the second round.

    Covington has two seasons and $25 million remaining on his contract.

    "Robert Covington is a player I'm very confident they are going to trade at some point this week," said Adrian Wojnarowski on his podcast on Sunday.

    Am I the only one who thinks Covington is overrated?

    He was underrated when we had him here, but many of you see him as a full fledged 3rd option on this team...
