    I don’t see Capela as the type to abandon the Rockets.

    I will pass on that tidbit.

    I could absolutely see a Boogie+George combo landing in LA. Both can be UFAs and have interest. I think of all of the LA scenarios that's the most likely.

    Thanks,

    I do not see LeBron in LA. Lakers are not good enough to make the playoffs, much less challenge us or GS.

    Isn't Cyber a west coast guy? Not saying he is wrong, just might be looking through WC glasses. Like we look through Houston glasses.

    Capela isnt looking to leave but he also wouldnt mind going on another team and not being under JH shadow. He feels he can offer more. He sees the Lakers as a young and fun team that he can grow with. Same with PHX. I don't see the Lakers going out there to mess with RFA. Its just not in their style.

    Lakers arent sold on DMC. I dont think they really care for him after the injury. Only see him there if its on a short term deal they strike out on.

    yea, but he was dead on with Dwight, he even thought it was the better move for D12 then staying with the Lakers

    Boogie and PG to LA would actually be very interesting to see. The big thing as always with Boogie is can he keep his emotions under control? I am not sure if Luke could handle Boogie but who knows?

    Ball
    PG
    Ingram
    Kuzma
    Boogie

    is a pretty intriguing starting five, but I have no idea where their bench is going to be with the only guys I think under contract then would be Hart, Zubac and of course Deng. I dont think they will be able to re-sign Randle.

    Lebron? I think any lineup without the King is a tier lower.

    Capela should embrace the Harden shadow and all of the shots that shadow gets for him, tbh. ;)

    Which player do you think the Lakers have more interest in, Capela or Randle?

    I would say Randle. RFA is not a fun game. If the Lakers know they can get some studs this summer, they will attach a pick or a young player to get rid of Dengs $. I believe the opportunities are endless.

    I also think IT stays for the midlevel. Just a gut feeling.

    As legit cyber is, I take his LAL speculation with a grain of salt. He's a Lakers fan so he has Lebron headed there. Why? Because Lakers fans use the fact of him buying homes as a major flag that he will end up there.

    Lebron is not going to LA. GS, Houston, SA with a healthy Kawhi. Lebron doesn't want those problems.

    Houston or Philly. Houston will shock the world hopefully. Their scandal ain't gonna help.

    Thanks for your input cyber as always.

    In regards to growing with a team....

    If he went to La and the speculation was that George and Lebron are going there then that is as lateral as you get.

    We all know Cyber is as legit an insider as it comes, but Capela ain't going anywhere unless Lebron James is walking through Houston's door.

    Then you are looking at Deandre Jordan for cheap.

    @cyberx have you heard anything from CP3s camp regarding if he'd take a paycut should Morey figure out a way to get LeBron here (if he were willing to come here).

    Capela is a nut case, if he thinks he can make it without Harden and Chris Paul. He will be badly exposed without them, on offense, which is already limited. His defense is good, his shot blocking is great, but he isn't worth the max by any means.

    LOL at Capela even a little bit wanting to get out of the JH shadow.

    The shadow that is going to get him PAID.

    He could go to the GSW, provide a similar skill-set as a McGee, get paid peanuts, and barely play in the playoffs!!

    I mean, I'm being a bit hyperbolic. He's better than McGee, clearly...

    Mostly I don't believe the source on this one.
