    Really cool to have watched you progress as a player. I hate to see you go. I wish you nothing but success vs everyone except Houston. Thanks for the dunks.

    It was fun especially that time when you turned KAT and Gobert into sputtering wrecks in the span of 2 weeks for the greatest Rockets team of all time.

    Sorry you got too tall for the league.

    We saw you grow up right before our eyes.
    Started like little Groot and grew into the tall timber we came to know and love.
    Had a GREAT run with James & CP with like a 90% winning percentage when all 3 started.
    Best of luck in ATL. You'll be a great fit with Trae

    Thank you Capela.

    It was great to watch a skinny young lad with few basketball assets except height, work hard to become an efficient center scorer. Keep working hard, and best of luck.

    Thanks Capela, you worked you tail off to get better and improve. You always had a good attitude for the most part and will be missed. Good luck in Atlanta with Trey, the fans will be very happy to have you.

    He had some phenomenal touch near the rim. I’ll miss him.

    I hope Capela can get some good investment advices from Asik rather than from Dwight, it will be sad that 4 years down the road he will be signs back by the Rox with a partially guaranteed contract.
