Late to the party here, but I have always coveted, and believed Thaddeus Young would make an excellent Warrior. Thad, hands down, for size and grit and veteran leadership. Then Barton, because he always kills us. Addition by subtraction.

Covington for sure.

Bob myers had the opportunity to snap Covington in the Dlo trade. Instead he took an overbloated untradeable contract and now everyone is shouting about Roco again. People suffer for their numbness.. I'm not sure Rockets will let go of Roco so I choose not to engage in this pipe dream

I like Covington a lot - but I think Barton is much more 'getable' since Denver is overloaded with young talent and they aren't going to be getting rid of Porter. I am curious why Barton's age, etc. wasn't given.

RoCo w/ the track record over Barton... Not confident he can play a lot of SF as he ages, but imagine being able to put him and Dray on LeBron/Davis or PG/Kawhi

Covington for sure in this group.

That said, of guy's on the Rockets, I almost wonder if PJ Tucker is the more gettable player. The Rockets are just very interesting. Pending what happens with the salary cap next year, they could be a tax team that's not quite a top 5 title contender. They might just try to get off PJ Tucker, get an asset, have the TPE, and see how things go. If they're in a good spot they could use the TPE in season to add on.

I couldn't stand to watch many of the games this year. They were sloooow.

I did watch Cov crush the Dubs once or twice. So that's who I pick.

Give me Will Barton! He could thrive in GS.

Gay and Young are declining. The Warriors need athleticism, not aging vets. Gay would absolutely not work in a ball-movement environment.

Covington would be great, but I like Barton far more as a two-way player.
