    35 y.o.Trevor Ariza, #16, and a protected 2021 1st Round Pick for Robert Covington - I want to know what Portland has to blackmail the new Houston management with to get RoCo that cheap. You have to figure that the 2021 pick probably will be at least teens to early twenties, so you're probably not going to get a top guy either year. I like Covington (29 and probably at his peak), but I'm not sure he's as good as Gordon, who is only 25. I would be ticked if our management sold AG that low. 

    Covington  12.4 ppg, 6.6 rpg, 1.3 apg, 13.38 per

    Gordon  14.4ppg, 7.7 rpg, 3.7 apg, 15.18 per

    I think Ariza has more value to Houston because of his relationship to Harden. Lots of players respect Ariza, so this may be more of a locker room trade than on-court trade from the HOU side. Getting the picks is icing.

    Latest Vecenie mock has is taking Kira. He ended the analysis by saying “Honestly I kind of hope this happens.”

    I also hope that.

    I don't understand the logic of taking a PG that would take the ball out of Fultz's hands. Markelle is a good PG and when the ball isn't in his hands (as seen with Fournier) it negates one of his biggest strengths. Draft a PG to be a backup? Sure, but we can re-sign MCW and find a 3rd PG later in the draft, or from overseas.

    Where have you been hiding, Nyce?

    What's up Bro. 

    Life has just been busy. between kids, COVID, and moving back to Orlando-area, hectic year. Always watching games and keeping up. My favorite time of the year (draft, free agency, and TRADES), I figure I jump on my desktop and pop in.

    One thing with the timeline of this insane and unprecedented offseason, we’re gonna need to be super patient with any rookie. One month from draft to start of the season when rookies usually get 4 is gonna make a lot of these young guys look rough early on.

    honestly, unless we make moves that full on tank this season, i'm not expecting any of our rookies (Okeke & whoever we pick at 15) to play early on.

    Man...if Fultz hype is real.....what do you project our record to be? Does he start? 

    I believe Caron in that Fultz is healthy but I doubt he starts for us right away. The big thing is our bench becomes instantly better. With an improved bench and already set rotation, that should help us off to a good start that we can sustain. I think we  get +.500 again and 5/6 seed. If we can avoid our usual terrible January, we'll be in good shape.
