He's a great competitor and unlike of many others who are too afraid to get posterised and end up in videos he tries to challenge the shots. Now he was looking to take an offensive charge. He could have saved his team a basket. He makes too many idiotic mistakes that are laughable but this one isn't one of them. Great move by Capella!
He was in restricted area anyway, he is just not in the right place & time most of the time. Low bbIQ is nothing to praise about.
yes he was and that was why it wasn't an offensive charge but that was what he tried to do ,not block capella. And that's commendable even if he was late to go into position. He tried to do something for his team instead of not challenging at all, even at the expense of his own "dignity". And his bball iq is more shown when he tries to play pg and in the fast break but not here.
Thorpe did that often but the guy most similar to Thorpe as a Rocket is no longer on the team. Greg Smith. From proportions to 'Hand Size' and play.
I saw the dunk part again a few times. Does anyone else think that Clint looked a bit like KG there? Please delete this. Sorry for the double post.
I don't think there is a single Rockets fan that does not like Clint N'Dumba-Capela. That's what happens when you far exceed expectations, 21 years old *shaking my head*
Poor Brandon Knight. He's going to be on the level of Shawn Bradley of being on the wrong end of highlights.
Normally I feel like Clint is laughing with the team and smiling after a dunk or alley, this one he seems like it's all business and getting back on D lol
Clint Capella, in his one year and half a preseason has become one of my top five all time favorite Rockets to watch play the game. There, I said it. His game is just so exciting. I'm expecting pretty good contributions from him this year.
