I wonder if anyone here realizes Robert Covington is 29 and is about to turn 30 this year. I'm not trying to say that Gary is going to turn into RoCo, but ninjas out here blooming late right under our noses. Same guys that thought Roco was trash here at 23-24 because he couldn't shoot, were the same people yelling at Morey for letting him go when it all clicked in Philly. Gary is basically on that same trajectory as Roco (again not saying he is going to turn into Roco). Gary had an impressive game against the best team in the NBA and the MVP. Some of you guys are so quick to jump down a dudes throat. Danuel House is 27 and stuff is clicking. Guess where Danuel House was at 24-25 - I don't remember either. If people want to stan Gary Clark let a ninja stan Gary Clark.
Is this another one of those "he had a good game, so we obviously messed up getting rid of him, and yes I'm ignoring he really hasn't done jack the rest of the season" thread?
Is Clark the guy who lead the league in 4th qtr scoring with us a while ago? Or am I mixing him up with another former rocket PF?
I disagree. I think the coaches see a higher ceiling in Clemons and also know that they need a rivers or Gordon replacement next year on the cheap..Frazier also has a can become a playable 3 and D guard if he can get his jitters out and fix his shot. They prioritized the guard position over the forward position... garys shot was too inconsistent to warrant keeping him. They see these guys everyday in practice....
Happy with our current roster. Also happy for Gary to play and get chances on other teams. NBA window not always long, save up that pay, If a modest living, he should be good for life.
I think Clark was good with us, but he had confidence issues both on defense and offense. He was honestly too passive compared to House who just played hard no matter what
just wish him good luck and be happy for the guy and move on.... you worrying about a former player/scrub in the middle of the playoff?
