    We have a young budding Center who has performed admirably all season but..........

    And several other inane posts.

    I know it's one game but it's fun. Capela outplayed all 3 of the guys below combined that _holic said would give him trouble.

    Clint Capela - 20/13 on 8/10 and 25 MPG +/- +29

    Pau Gasoft - 6/6 on 2/3 and 22 MPG +/- -11
    LMA - 4/6 on 2/7 and 25 MPG +/- -36
    David Lee - 4/6 on 0/2 and 28 MPG +/- -9

    Well I wouldnt exactly defend a "Capela is better than this center" conversation but he balled today... So he deserves a shout out or 2.. But c'mon bro!

    Capela/Nene > Pau/Nene that Morey tried to build in the past

    Not unless we also got a playmaker more efficient and creative than James Harden.

    I went back and forth with holic earlier in the season. He actually had some good points about Capela getting caught out of position on d and occasionally on the boards. He also wanted the rockets to trade capela. This i strongly disagreed with. Capela is an up and coming center that hasnt reached his ceiling yet....we got to roll with him. Tonight, as well as numerous other nights this season, showed some of that potential. Great game

    someone who can't even acknowledge capela has gotten better this year shouldn't really be taken seriously. its actually pretty sad bc the average person would be able to see that

    Capela has a good game but that's more because of Harden and the defense giving him the drive but not the finish. Capela feeds off of other players. That's ok.

    Baketballholic - is dead wrong about being being destroyed in the paint. That's ridiculous consider how many points the Rockets score around the rim

    Ups and downs are to be expected, but he has played some decent basketball these playoffs against some quality big men. 4 really solid games for the young guy, and 3 where Nene came to the rescue. I'm not sure how you can be anything less than ecstatic for a guy as young as he is. He could barely walk 2 years ago. Now he is throwing up jump hooks.

    Outside of Lou/Gordon, who doesn't 100 percent feed off of Harden?
