People conveniently forget he was hot garbage that year in the playoffs too, which is a big reason why PHI got rid of him and his "amazing, bargain contract." He is expendable.
Mark my words. Whoever overpays for him will regret it unless he goes to a championship contender like Lakers/Clippers/Bucks to mask his flaws. He is the next Trevor Ariza in terms of hype.
Covington was a worse player than DFS at age 26, which is where the latter is right now. I will gladly take DFS's contract and age over Covington + potential asking price. I am sure the Mavs would too.
It´s getting old to respond to people that have strong opinions but nothing to back them up. Last season... after the RoCo trade a bottom 5 Minnesota defense suddenly was a top 5 defense. But I guess that´s only because they added Dario Saric as well.
He wasn´t great early in the season but is back to his former self now.
Might want to educate yourself...

And by the way at age 26 RoCo averaged 12/6 with 2 stls and 1 blk. Ranked 4th in the entire league in DRPM. 1st non big.
Is there another DFS in a different universe that has done the same?
