    Depends on what his price is. Doesn’t make sense to give up a lot. But I’d love to have Clint back…and we need him.

    Seems weird. The Thunder, the Pacers....could use him. And the Sixers, Clippers, Nets....

    Tate, Landale, and 2 seconds. :D

    Seriously, CC gives us that big who can play D and hit the boards...need that in the rotation. He's got plenty left in the tank to play this role. I'd love to see Clint come home, but it needs to not cost too much.

    I feel like he probably costs at least one Brooklyn pick.

    Is that worth it for a guy who's about to turn 30 and only under contract one more season? Not so sure.

    Capela would be a nice addition to the squad. Would the Hawks accept Jalen Green in return?

    There's no way I'm trading a top-10 pick for Clint Capela.

    No way are we dealing a BKN pick for CC. Now, if it's CC and Murray.....

    Yup. I would be fine trading the Nets pick in a package that includes Murray, but certainly not for JUST Capela.

    Murray probably costs 3 first rounders--there are a lot of teams in the hunt for him, gonna be a helluva bidding war. Clint probably costs one first rounder.

    Hopefully there’s not a bidding war, Clint could help us greatly in the play in race, but is it worth a young prospect or first round pick? :oops:

    Keep in mind the Rockets aren’t contenders this year. Would trading for Clint help us two years from now? He’s under contract next season for 22 million.

    There are a few promising centers that should be available to us in this years draft.
