    Rather address other needs and have faith in Capela's development

    He is good coming off the bench. You are delusional if you don't want him coming off the bench... Isn't Whiteside a shiny new toy too?

    Biyombo would likely be a good fit at the 5 for this team. Likely playing behind Capella, a guy that is dedicated to playing d and crashing the boards would suit us well. As always, $$$$ will be the determining factor. He possibly priced himself out of our market last night but I assume we'll kick the tires during free agency.

    Capela too skinny. Biyombo is a man with a man's body.

    It's not even a series. It's one game. One game in which the Cavs probably had a cruise control mindset and didn't show up to play.

    Let's see Biyombo replicate his stats, in game 4. Lue might sent Mozgov out there, if Thompson doesn't show up.

    I like Biyombo, I honestly do - but you can't base your signing decisions on that one time you saw him have a good game or you end up with a Doc Rivers supporting cast. It's even worse if you pay a premium to take him from all the other GMs who are bidding him up based on a good game/series too.
