    Do they really need Capela now? It would seem this rumor would be dead now.

    Whenever I hear the Rockets need a third team my booty hole tenses up. Rockets never get the third team they need.

    That is crazy. He's low-key a scrub IMO.

    I think he's a serviceable player, a big who can play decent defense and shoot the 3, but man, i never expected him to get so much money, i thought he was going to get around 8/9M at best, even from a team like the Kings.

    Which should make Capela on his locked in deal seem that much more attractive to other teams.

    Surprised that so many of you think Dedmon's a dud. Thought he was a dark horse underrated player here.

    Well, i just said i think he's a serviceable player, that doesn't mean i think he's bad lol.

    And yeah, i think Clint has pretty good value.

    Kings were also the ones who offered Ryan Scrubberson 18M a year so I'm just happy we have no cap otherwise Morey would've matched it again

    Nah, it's just I've read for the last few months here that Dedmon would be a great, undervalued get, as a backup or replacement for Capela. Now that he's off the market, it's a stream of, 'he went for how much?! He's a scrub, etc..."

    Not singling you out at all. Just finding the sour grapes amusing. Lord knows, it's the only thing so far that is, this free agency season. Well, that and finding Apocalypse Now quotes that fit my current mood.

    Well i guess that depends on the single person, some guys here likes him a lot, some think he's ok, others don't like him...that kinda happens with a lot of role players, hell, there were a different guys saying we were overpaying PJ when we signed him, while others wouldn't trade him for Butler...

    I can see not liking the signing, but my goodness he's been indispensable. I wouldn't have traded him to Minny either (and Thibs would've just made the Rockets take back Gorgui's deal, or whatever else would poison pill the trade.)

    Another Battier, with matching corner 3. That said, he's getting old too. Will this be the year his coach turns back into a pumpkin?
