    He shoots well enough to open up spacing. He also will play some 4 and 5 here which really opens the floor.

    the thing is the lakers dont have to play a traditional center. davis can play stretch 5 against us easily. he doesnt like playing 5 against true bigs like embiid but for tucker ? he will eat damn good. yea clint might not be a GREAT defender against him either but our chances of grabbing a rebound go way up with an athletic 6'10 guy vs someone 6'5 who couldnt jump over a speed bump.

    Yes he is 6’6” and 230 lbs with a 7’0” wingspan.

    The league is and has really changed.

    Most likely Davis would be defended by Covington who has a 7’2” wingspan and is as strong as Davis.

    Davis is a star and will get his regardless of who we have out there. We will get a traditional center but he likely won’t play a lot.... as we are going to be running more.

    I'm so pissed if we trade our only good asset and young player for Robert Covington who's not even better than Capela.

    I still can’t get that Cov is all we are getting for Capela. Surely we can’t be giving up a pick....surely

    Wow losing Clint Capela would be the saddest I've been over a player since like Yao.

    Let’s wait and see what draft picks, if any the Rockets gave up.

    And now we have to get our center replacement in a 2nd deal, so more assets going out.

    I'm not sold on this. Too much to give up for Covington.
