    I'm honestly not sure.

    His regular season statistics are hard to argue, but he is a really bad defensive player, At a guard position you can tolerate it, but for your center to be that bad is a major hindrance to your defense. From the outside looking in, the Butler situation makes it seem like he doesn't really like to be challenged on his shortcomings either. On top of that, true centers are being marginalized to begin with. So unless he really starts abusing smaller players, I'm not sure how much you can run through him in postseason games.

    He is a superstar level talent, and in a league where it's so hard to come by it's probably worth the risk. but there seem to be more red flags than usual about how much nba value there is behind his great value in fantasy basketball.

    No one plays defense in the NBA. Lebron doesn't, harden doesn't, westbrook doesn't.

    I love Capela because he's not KAT.

    KAT just killed his outplay the contract potential - advantage rockets
