Poll: Do you like the Clint Capela-Robert Covington trade?

we ****ed up with the paul trade and this team has been slowly declining since. Call me a hater whatever the **** I dont care

 

Capela could play 10 minutes on this Rockets team, as a specialist when Russ off the court.

If even that.

AG would would be a starter and 3rd star next to Beard and Brodie. AG can do everything Clint could and more.

For your mental health, forget about CP3.

He's just not coming back

 

LOL

2nd seed here we come.

 

You’re a broken clock man, trying sound “optimistic” while ignoring reality doesn’t make you any more of a fan. Stop attacking people who tell it like it is.

 

When you tell it like it is then I will stop attacking.

But you get both guns when you lie.

 

Ok dude, play your little game.

 

Agreed, but if that is the case, then why give up a first round pick and go all in? I think we have gotten worse since 2 years ago.

DD

 

But Rockets are better vs. last season and even from before the Capela trade this season.

Many of the naysayers are only able to see what they want to see.

The Rockets are a much better team after Covington trade. That is not debatable.

 

I think caplea is better. He can score 20 plus and 20 plus rebounds. roco is good at defence, but he cannot score 15 plus for each game. It can only give speed and defence only. Caplea has injury, Roco can play. For this year, I choose roco. For long term, I still select caplea

 

You need to understand that rebounds are not as critical as you think they are in today's NBA.

 

And post like these are the reason why I can't take you seriously either.

First of all the Rockets are the ones who traded away Capela, that includes Morey and MDA. Would they have done the trade if it had little to 0 credible logic? Who do you think is more capable of fully dissecting the entire game and all that comes with it? Who is more credible? Them or you? You think you are better than those guys? Do better.

Secondly what does having a center have anything to do with Harden's workload? Harden's job isn't to defend inside, get rebs or block shots so why does Capela make his job easier? The only interaction they have is on the PnR for lobs and dunks guess what the 4 other people can also do PnR. Both Capela and WB can't shoot so what exactly is the difference here? Harden always had somebody who can't shoot even when Cp3 was here. What I can tell you though is Harden never had somebody who could pick up the slack before WB got here, he never had anybody who could go off for 35 pts a night like the way WB had esp with Eric Gordon out. Sure PJ Tucker, Green and Roco def has a much tougher job now on defense and rebounding since Capela is gone. But that's not Harden, Harden himself has an easier time having WB beside him than Cp3 cuz CP3 is not a high possessions guy, he won't put massive stats on the table. If Harden goes down CP3 won't suddenly put up 35 pts a night, do you even understand something that basic?


Do Better.

 

He can't do that cuz he is injured the rest of the year.

 

Lmfao. Now you’re using the they know better to try to help yourself. The same guys who signed mcw, melo, ennis and all the other scrubs a year ago. Literally having the worst offseason of a disaster ever here when guys like Jeff green were easily available. Look at him now. Omg they know better. Gtfoh with that bs. Everything that’s done is the correct move huh. Welp we know that sure isn’t true. Again stupid logic. Also ironic you're using that, when you've b****ed and whined about Ryno's situation. Wait can I use the they know better than you in that example or does it not apply. Everyone knows Tilman was the one who panic forced the trade. That's such old news.

It’s literally amazing how you can sit there and believe harden’s workload is just easy these days. Look at what he has to see night in and night out. The massive stats is some of the dumbest stuff I’ve ever read. You know why his stats are inflated bc they literally threw away a big for him to operate. Bc his shot is so broke, that’s the only way you increase his chance at being effective next to harden. Without doing so, all the teams just sat back and watched wb throw up brick after brick after brick. This slack you keep harping on his comical. He continues to work just as hard if not harder now. Did Covid make you forget how much harden has struggled this year prior to the season coming to a pause. Looks like it

Oh please continue to try and post like me. I love it

 

People forget that pre Covid, there was a good chance Capela would have missed the rest of the season with a heal bruise or wouldn't have been healthy.

 

oh for sure. Capela wasn't playing prior to the pause and he still wasn't fully recovered for most of it. As of june he said it's just much much better, so we know it was an lingering issue for several months. Had he been playing it would have consistently being pain level thresholds or days off to rest, or even being out for some time period

 

I still very much support ROCO > Capela, but dude cannot keep shooting 2-11 or 3-10 or whatever. He's gotta be able to knock down more looks.

 

Yikes. Capela isn’t damaged goods. Pretty sure their season ended early because of COVID...Hawks weren’t in a rush to play him either I don’t think.

Trae just averaged 30 & 9 on 60TS% & started in the all star game at 21 yrs old .....pretty sure he’s a prodigy too....Curry was a rookie at 21 yrs old btw...

Hunter last 20 games - 13.5 points / 6.5 rebounding 44% FG / 42 3pt%. I don’t think he’s going to be a star but certainly not a bust....

 

but he takes a rest for the suspension of covid. what kinds of sick does he has

 

He was unavailable.

Bottom line.

 

Beautiful on defense but a little rough on offense.

Gotta start hitting those 3's Rob33, we believe in you!
