    What's wrong with saying he is going to be as good or better than Yao? Too many treat Yao like a god around here. Capella has Hakeem instincts and flashes of his footwork. That's prospective enough.

    Yao averaged 17.5 and 9 at the age of 23.

    Capela is 20 so we'll see.

    That jumpman logo looks like a 50 year old jordon now.

    Maybe it's just old age and bad memory, but Capela looks like he has filled out some in the arms and chest... in a way that lifting or some other muscle mass building exercise would achieve. Not a lot, mind you, but some. I wouldn't want him to become a Schwarzenegger type anyway. We can track hiss listed weight and hope it is accurate and kept current.

    He has for sure. Important to remember that he's just barely 21, and being on the Rockets/Vipers is probably the first time he's receiving real quality strength & conditioning work. So it will take some time.

    they say tv adds 10 pounds, so i can't say. just called out to him as mr. capella while he was walking down the stairs toward the food court, asked him for a pic, told him he was awesome in the playoffs, he smiled and said thx, other half took the pic, said thx for it, shook his hand, and that was all.

    no one really seemed to take notice of him. doesn't seem as tall in person. can't believe how young these guys are (dude straight up looked like a hs senior... that or i'm just old now) with all of that pressure at that age. geez. makes me want to be less critical of them during the games.

    thx for the comps. and yeah, that was a while ago, jontro... but i remember. :)

    Does Capela remind anyone of Akeem when he first showed up at UH? Tall, lanky, agile, fluid, good instincts, and in desperate need to of BBQ to bulk up?

    You need to hit the cardio soon. I see a lot of fat behind those muscles. Get off the creatine and try and lean out - hit the treadmill or elliptical or bike or stair stepper
