    Why the hell are the Rockets so damn obsessed with Robert Covington!!??? It's not like he's Paul George or Kawhi or something. He's not even as good as Ariza was in his prime. Anybody??

    We would be a contender if that Capela for Allen & Prince deal happened.

    That's it? They should be able to get way more for Capela. Way more. I hope this is all smoke and mirrors.

    To quote Daryl Morey: "The teams that find the Robert Covingtons, not the ones that pay Robert Covingtons, are the ones that succeed long term."

    Rockets want to be both. Average the difference and we're looking at perpetual WCF runner-ups until our stars age - just in time for us to run out of first round draft picks. Good job.

    Rockets send assets and first round picks to get back our role players. In morey I trust.

    If he is added on this team with Capela, then he might be a final piece. Westbrook - Harden - Tucker - Covington - Capela with Gordon, Rivers, House from bence looks great. But getting him by trading Capela away? I agree with you.

    For a prime Ariza, I would happily give up Clint.

    RoCo is only a side piece to the deal. The main player we get is Luxury Tax Saving.
