Covington is such a key player for Houston. 11boards, 3 assists, 2 steals, 4 blocks....he was everywhere on defense. Super valuable

not sure they have enough to make a run all the way, especially missing Gordon. But some other teams are short handed too a bit.

Where is KP’s D? He took the bait and just plays O. If he hits like he did last night then I guess all is good if not great.

One thing though - yesterday’s games were excellent.

He is a huge upgrade over Capela who was unplayable in playoffs

trying to find where I said Harden wasn't an excellent offensive player or even a top 10 player in the NBA which he is.

So i prefer a

really good offensive player and a good defensive player.

over

an excellent offensive player and a poor defensive player.

Shoot me... :lol:

top 10 players in the NBA right now (no order)

Giannis
Kawhi
LeBron
AD
Harden
PG13
Luka
Curry (still putting him in despite injury season)
Durant (still putting him in despite injury season)

now I can see a case being made for Lillard, Embiid, Tatum, and Jokic for my final spot in my top 10.
