There's so many trade rumors surrounding him. I think he would be a nice addition to the team. We need a big body center and it's clear. Capela has a hard time against center that are way bigger than him. It showed against the nets when he was defending Brook Lopez. He had a hard time, that's why Nene came in for him.
Wait, what. Don't you know how bad Kanter is on defense? Kanter is a max player who is so bad he can't start over a rookie. You start a thread to highlight our defensive shortcomings against Brook Lopez then advocate trading for two of the worst defensive bigs in the game today?! nah son. I like Noel too but he wouldn't help against the big body centers you reference since Noel weighs 20 pounds less than Capela.
Yes I know how bad he is on defense but he's a liability on the glass and on offense. but noel has a really high potential why not take the risk on him
vucavic is bigger than capela but not at all better on defense. also, a post player has little use in our offense. we need a big who can shoot 3's, or finish on a PnR. and yes we do need another defensive center for when capela finds a bad matchup (or is in foul trouble, or even just when he's on the bench), but not at the cost of our cap space for next summer.
lmaoo i forgot he was in the league and capela over anyone in trade rumors rn bc he is younger and has more potential
Funny, I didn't even know about the Vucevic rumors but when I heard Cousins was sitting tonight my immediate thought was that there might be an imminent trade, and the first team I thought of was Orlando because of their glut of big men. They could condense it to a Cousins-Ibaka frontcourt and deal Vucevic + fillers in return
Is this thread just like all the other posts in trades thread: 2nd rounder + Brewer for 20/10 guy? /s
He does have a top 3 nickname in the league, so I'm down with the trade. BRING VUCCI MANE TO HOUSTON.
Orlando-Sac trade for Cousins makes no sense because both teams suffer from a glut of big men. Both teams are better off upgrading at point or their wings.
you mean how many competent teams had a dominant center that led them to the playoffs? none or did you mena how many dominant centers are there in the league? no more than 5, maybe less
