    No reason not to bring him over now.

    So what its a buyout dispute?
    This is good news. If Capella is the jewel in the rough people think he is then him playing this upcoming season couldn't hurt.

    Agreed, his defense is the best thing about him. Let him come and learn.

    This news doesn't seem too bad.

    Might as well bring the kid over now and let him get as much developmental time as possible going up against Howard in practice.

    Dispute was most likely on purpose. Kept them from fully obtaining his rights which kept him temporarily off the cap if he was still not released from FIBA. Actually kind of a smart move had they landed Bosh. Could have saved them having to needlessly move Jones or D Mo.

    A back up Center, a PF with size, a back up SF, a backup SG and a back up PG.

    Can't bring him over this year. Just can't. He's not ready. We aren't ready.

    Its win now or bust. Who cares if he's not ready? Throw him into the fire and hope he survives.

    You get the distinct feeling people don't like dealing with Morey.

    If this offseason was a videogame I would turn off the machine and start from an earlier save.
