    the mid range jumper is over rated, out dated and irrelevant

    Don't care if he's going senile or not, gonna miss Worrell when he retires. Not gonna be the same without him.

    That screen-roll with Harden, where Capela receives the ball at the top of the key, takes a dribble at the foul line and finishes with two big Eurosteps: If Clint can develop that as a reliable move, it will absolutely rip open defenses. How are they supposed to handle a screen that high up, when our guy can get a layup even with a big man in his way? You move, it's a block. You don't move, layup. You bring another defender from the wing, 3 ball.

    One formula for a Warriors win over the Rockets is that they have 4 guys who can make killer plays with the ball, and we have only 3. If Clint develops his own moves from that distance, look out.

    Man tbh, just adding more the ability of being able to survey and make a pass out of the “post area” off the screen and roll is deadly.

    Being able to roll and find the open man after the defense collapses is such a good wrinkle added to this offense.

    Give Clint serious credit for adding the ability to pass because he deserves it.

    Being able to drive and euro step would just be ridiculous and definitely make him a max contract all star level player

    I missed the game, thank you for posting! This team is capable of exploding.

    But I just read on Clutchfans that we should trade Gordon for... Who was it, Will Barton? MKG?

    Where EG is on we are pretty much unstoppable. He's still really streaky. I swear if he hits a hot streak against the Warriors in the playoffs we will win that series.

    CP3 is God. His passes are so crisp af. The fact that Ariza can catch and shoot is amazing.

    EG is such a likeable guy. He seems like a high character guy . So happy he is now finally healthy after years of setback after setback with injuries

    I said this about Tristan Thompson in last year's Finals and it rings true about Capela: To beat the Warriors in a playoff series, these guys must play well enough to force the Warriors to keep Peculiar or The Fool on the floor. This is how you prevent them from closing games strongly. Can't let them get away with playing Draymond at C.

    Is Capela up to the task?
