    interesting but i love Clint so i'm not that inclined.I think Clint will be better suited to defend the Warriors small ball and already has amazing synergy with Harden.

    Not sure what the dynamic was with CP3 as well. I rather keep Clint.

    Definitely.

    But if you are Morey you could flip Capela for a pretty damn good player and fill in Jordan at center spot.

    Just saying, this isn't a bad thing. It's a great thing, it means Jordan is basically what Paul George is to the Lakers if true. We can sit back knowing that when he hits FA we are his #1 option. Gives us some flexibility.

    No realistic way to make the money work.

    The thing is I don't think there's a player that rolls or finds his way for the lob dunk as well as Capela in the entire basketball world. Guys like Deandre Jordan and Hassan Whiteside can make those plays given much more wide open opportunities or whatnot but Capela does it in a surgical manner surrounded by defenders.

    I think we've got the center spot covered. He'd have to want less money than Capela, which... yeah.

    DJ makes almost 23 mil this year

    they would probably ask for Ryno for salary matching purposes and Capela

    Play with Harden and CP3 = get paid. Easy to see why.

    It would be fun to watch Cuban's head explode, though.

    Capela has gotten to the point where we don't have to watch any more "hack-a__" games and that reason alone is why Capela is > DJ
