    Capela is a free agent next summer. Do you really want to pay him 20 million a year? I can see him being traded because he will never be good enough to justify the contract he's gonna get next year

    You were ok with paying Rhyno $20 mill so why would Capela deserve less?

    That's next year though. We need his contributions if we're to contend.

    Javele is a starter, he's taller, longer and more athletic than Capela. He gives you defense, rebounding and shotblocking.

    Bogut's injury is a concern but it's worth it, it's not like he needed surgery.

    Besides, Capela is going to be a free agent next offseason. He's going to demand about $20 million/year.

    How are they going to keep harden, cp3, melo AND Capela?

    If somebody is willing to pay him $20M , doesn't that mean that is what he is worth? Confused

    I was not okay with Rynos contract. It came back to bite us. We can't have another contract like that.

    javale's a starter? no.

    the logic of capela being a FA next year so he must be traded is dumb, especially when hes already been acknowledged as a big piece of what the rockets are trying to do this year

    Room for Lebron, CP3? Get a good C for Vet min. A Morey special.


    Not saying do it, but wouldn't surprise me.

    Lots of dumb teams willing to overpay. But to stay competitive we can't be that team. Better of trading him this year and getting something in return than letting him walk.

    We can't be like Cavs, overpaying all their players and now stuck with no assets. Or the Blazers with those 20 million dollar wing players on the bench.
