    Thoughts on this? Saw it floating the other day and wasn't sure if it was addressed on the board. I believe he's on the books for another year and is owed substantial cash, not sure what assets we would have to make this a feasible scenario. Considering we lack the interior presence WOULD be nice to have someone of this caliber of talent and tenacity on the squad. Anyone have additional info?

    Probably got some shorts from DMO or Harden one year during Olympics or all star game.

    This was around the same time he was seen wearing Raptors gear. Wouldn't make anything of it.

    It would have to be in free agency. No way the Pels trade him mid-season next year unless it is a complete disaster. If it comes to FA and he wants to leave, he is very close with James and Trev. I think we would have a good chance.

    This means nothing i'd say, he had Raptors shorts years ago...anyway, go after Hayward first this summer, maybe Paul/Millsap/Griffin/Gallo...next summer go after George and maybe Cousins...we can still take some time to see if/how Capela develops going forward.
