Yeah, thats a bit much about Covington. He's good, but hes not the elite level plyr is making him out to be. Cov is only a slight bit better than Aminu, but both players are pretty similar imo.
I would love to have Covington, but I wouldn't trade Aminu for him. Aminu is better. Aminu defends 5 positions and he is no slouch on offense. He's not a primary scorer but after you have 1 or 2 primary scorers, Aminu is type of offensive player you want.
I don't know if I'd say Aminu is better, but I also wouldn't say Cov is better either. I think they're about as near of equals as you can find in the NBA. I wouldn't trade Aminu for him not because I think Aminu is better, just that I think it's a wash of a trade.
