    capela.

    i know those guys got big deals in the past, but none of them besides adams would get anything close to 5/85 on the current market.  

    If they play with Harden and CP3, wouldnt be surprising if they put up better # and get big $ offers.  If you have any of the Horns alum (Allen, Turner, Bamba) as a Rockets C, the Rockets would just win as many games as with Capela.

    Capela showed an extra gear in the playoff but he is not even in the closing minutes lineup against GSW.  Should you pay more than $15 mil for that? I still dont think so.

  2. So Bazemore and Schroder for Gordon, Anderson, and a pick or 2?
     
    Though with Butler turning down the Wolves, I wouldn't mind a Butler and Dieng for Gordon, Anderson, and a pick or 2 either. Dieng's is signed for 2 more years after this one, so he would give the Rockets a security blanket in case Capela left.
    I would take anything useful for Anderson but hard to see Hawks/ Wolves going for those trades.

    Who's DMO?  Noel was never in Capela's class....  I could see a 1+1 or just playing on the QO if it gets down to it.....

     

    DMO  = Donatas Montiejunas.

    Noel hasn't produced at the same level but that didnt stop the Mavs from offering a shit ton of money. Now Noel has an injury issue and was happy to sign for the min to be a backup.

    All Im saying is that, Capela can gamble or take a compromise but still get life changing money. I assume he would choose the later

  4. The Rockets will wait out Capela's bluff. I don't think Capela would want to risk it by playing out the qualifying offer year ( see what happened to DMO, Noel, etc). Calling it at 36 mil for 3 yrs. Thats still alot of money in case things goes south, and you get a chance to earn a max contract in your prime.

    I think his biggest strengths are his defense, 3-point shot, and athleticism on the wing.

    Yeah sure, should have said under rated strength. Nonetheless, he noticeably declined last year.

    Morey said Rockets have "new math", ppl thought that meant he had a blank check from Fertitta. Maybe 15m for Ariza was too much or he has something else under his sleeves (hopefully it is not MCW).
