    Focal points:

    1. Harrell vs Capela
    2. Lou vs Rockets bench
    3. Kawhi Leonard vs James Harden

    Capela will be struggling against Harrell.

    I still can’t believe Harrell did not get any playing time in our playoffs. MDA is just terrible.

    Shouldn't have given up Harrell...

    Imagine Harrell being our small ball 5 instead of relying on old man Tucker.

    The smart thing to do would be to put Capela on the court when Harrell is out there, but of course, MDA will just ride his top-end talent throughout the night.

    Harrell has gotten some sort of a rep as a good defender because he hustles like a demon, and largely because he plays in LA.

    Not sure any stats back him up as some sort of elite defensive player though.

    2018-19 rankings:
    Defensive win shares: 59th
    Defensive box plus minus: 38th
    Defensive rating: 350th :eek:
    Blocks per game: 17th
    Steals per game: 71st
    Defensive rebound percentage: 68th

    He's good defensively, but not great. Capela shouldn't struggle against him.
