    delusional Warriors fans believe cheap Tilman will ask Morey to trade Covington since he's broke AF due to the pandemic.

    I doubt Morey would pull something like this and ruin his good name.

    The Rockets and Warriors trading feels improbable on its face. But never underestimate the power of a cheap owner.

    Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta already has shown himself to be pro-cost-cutting and he's gone on record saying how the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has impacted him financially. Couple that with what is expected to be an early playoff exit for the Rockets and a potential front-office shakeup and there is a path to a deal between two bitter rivals.

    LOL - Tilly's cheapskate rep has become universally known.

    Dumb article. Will not click.

    I have a strong feeling that the three Rockets that will not be traded are Russ, Harden and RoCo. The Rockets need to keep those three player and build around them. Everyone else (IMO) would be up for grabs if Tillman wanted to cut salary. It would be more likely that the Rockets would attach the 2022 frp to Gordon to shed salary before they traded RoCo to GS.

    I see the Warriors "disinformation team" is at it again. Damn, every June they start their rumors about the Rockets so the media will pick them up and spread them faster than the coronavirus spreads. Sheesh, enough already.

    I shouldn't have clicked.

    Literally the first guy listed as a "trade target" is Sabonis. Followed by Isaac and a whole group of really good, proven players.

    LOL. I laughed at that too.

    WHY the hell would Pacers trade Sabonis when they just signed him for 4 years and at a very cheap rate compared to what other guys are getting after 4 years?

    4 years for $77 millions for a 24 years old that averaged 19 points, 12 boards, and 5 ASSISTS is a damn bargin.

    I guess Delusional Warriors fans are tired of writing about how they will get Greek Freak for Wiggins and 3 1st round picks

    Morey is good, but unloading Gordon's contract will have to include more picks.

    Why do you care about Warriors fans? The Warriors suck.

    It's going to be a top 5 pick. If we can get a top 5 picking for covington sign me up.

    I bet the Sixers would give us Horford for him without picks...

    Warriors would do that in a heart beat! They get their wing man to replace Iggy.

    Tilman would also do the trade immediate. He'll probably make Morey draft someone like Melo Ball for marketing purpose only and save the $12 million a year he would have to pay Covington

    Which contract is worse? Horford or EG?

    You can always trade EG to the Knicks. Knicks are stupid

    Morey will trade Tilman before he trades RoCo.
