1. I like Capela. 2. I'd trade Capela in a package for any of these players: Nerlens, Oladipo, Smart, Hezonja, Winslow, Giannis 3. I'd consider trading Capela in a package for any of these players (if we got an additional asset): Schroder, McDermott, Randle, Rubio, Payne, Warren, McCollum, McLemore, Lowry, Hood, and Porter
Rockets aren't in a position to wait for a super raw guy like Capela to get better. He has zero jumpshot to speak of which makes him (like Dwight) fundamentally incompatible with Harden. He's probably the best trade asset we have. Wouldn't mind at all if Morey used it.
Capela is getting a baptism by fire this year. He only played the end of last year.. Let's also remember he is being played out of position. AT THE FOUR. It took DMO 3 years to get good and add some bulk.
Top 10 for sure. The vaunted 2014 draft class was somewhat underwhelming, especially considering the hype. Presently, he's in a slump. He's lost a bit of confidence offensively, which I believe is do to the free throw shooting. He also looks a bit tired as he's had to carry a pretty big load for a big guy who is a rookie, in terms of NBA experience.
Well he was playing at the 4 out of necessity. I agree though, outside of Harden, he's our best trade piece.
