SAS 1st take: Deandre Jordan wants to go to Houston

Brandan Wright was supposed to provide this for Rockets, and he would be cheaper than DJ.

Nerlens Noel may be cheaper to acquire next season as well. Plus both Wright and especially Noel would be much better switch defenders than DJ.

 

Clint is a Restricted free agent , if the Rockets were to sign and trade him it would invoke the hard cap .... NOT Happening. In most scenario's with Lebron on the roster , they are well over that sum.

 

Capela is so much better than Jordan. Jordan can't stop other centres from getting their own stats

last two match ups Capela has taken him to the cleaners and been far more damaging

 

Signing and trading a player away does not invokes the hard cap. Receiving a player in trade that has been signed and traded invoke the handicap.
