    One thing im convinced of...if we want to contend this year we've got to take a risk. Staying the course with the existing roster means we are content to waste a year of our mvps' primes. If that's the case, why not start the rebuilding process now.

    To all the westbrook trade haters.....staying the course with CP3 was a recipe for a 2nd round exit. At least we tried to improve the team; at least we took a risk. Now we need to keep rolling the dice because we're not done. Keep rolling till we win it!

    Get er done Morey.

    They tried to improve the team how. Digging themselves in a hole By having the worst offseason ever and dropping assets while ducking the tax. Terrible take

    Montrezl is reportedly causing issues in LA, contract year, he apparently worries more about his own stats than winning and is looking for a pay day. That’s not happening here w/ MDA around.

    Covington and Looney. Remember him? He is the guy that made Clint Capela his ***** in the playoffs. ;)

    Clippers aren't sending him here anyway i think, and we wouldn't pay him this summer anyway lol.

    I guess to play the 4, Shams or Lowe reported the Clippers have interest in Covington too but they don't have the assets to get him as today.

    Dude, you literally post any random source you get every ****ing time (like basketball rehab, players emotes and similar trash), and you get mad because i posted this guy once? Lol, at least he got Vuc resigning with the Magic last season.

    Covington is a poor man’s Shumpert. We gave up a first for him, why not Capela for RC?

    Why not throw in Wiggins and Collins while you’re at it.

    My one hope regarding Covington would be for Morey to be trying to play mind games by dangling Capela and have the Wolves emotionally committed to moving Covington and then basically say he can't get the deal done with Atlanta but swap them some other assets to get them to offload him and keep Capela in the process. . . .that won't happen though.

    Russ
    Harden
    House
    Covington
    Tucker

    is our best answer to the CP/Harden/Moute/Ariza/Tucker line-up that was so successful in 2017-18.

    Fail.

    MDA actually helped develop Covington in Philly.

    Covington is not worth sending out Clint.
