    I cannot wait for a Faried matchup with Draymond Green, that’s going to be fun to watch.

    I think once Capela comes back you will see a lot of them on the floor together, especially against the Warriors.

    I love Faried but I'd be pretty surprised if the Rockets use much Faried alongside Capela, it's really bad for spacing.

    Yes he can.

    Capela/Manimal/Nene
    Tucker/?
    ?/House/Green
    Harden/Gordon
    Paul/Rivers

    We need a lengthy SF/PF type.

    While Capela is on injured reserve. Funny.

    CP3 can start and still have his workload reduced. It's all about insulting the older vet....isn't it?

    What's the difference between him and Montrez? Nothing.. I've been wanting Trez back as backup center. So I was happy with the pickup. Team USA duo back in action!

    Montrez has a pretty good post up game.

    Warriors will struggle with the Capela/Faried combo. Cousins doesn't run the floor or play laterally quick enough on D. They will be forced to play Looney watch. Green can solely focus on Capela if he wants... then Faried will just go ham and vice versa.

    Actually there are a lots of small differences.
    • Harrell has a 7’3 wingspan to Faried’s 7’0.
    • Faried is an above average rebounder for his size, Harrell is below average. (Career 8.3 total rebounds per 36, career 12.5 total rebounding percentage)
    Overall I’d say Harrell is better offensive player with actual post moves, albeit rudimentary, but Faried is energy/ role player. Which is what we actually need.
