    Capela is so soft tho. He was getting punked by that bust Wes Johnson.

    Are the Clippers prepared to take Ryno or will there be a 3rd team willing to take him? I see no DJ trade happening without him being involved.

    Man at the beginning of the season Instood firmly next to Capela but he seems to be back to his inconsistent ways. His free throw percentage is back to **** & he seems to play better with Harden.

    As for our terrible offensive rebounding..



    I’m not saying i’d do it but i’m definitely thinking about it.

    DeAndre Jordan has the same love for Houston as Gerald Green. Hometown pride. Get it done, Luhnow.

    If DJ really really wants to come here, then he can be had in the off season for the alleged discount he might take per cyberx.

    I think it may be a perfect opportunity to unload Ryan Anderson. Anderson plus Capela and second round pick could net us Deandre. Yeah we lose two starters but getting rid of Anderson allows us to have a future. If we can do that deal without adding a first rounder then Morey should be on it.

    We need Deandre for real toughness in the paint. Capela/Anderson combo is too weak.

    I rather have DJ, since he said he would take a pay cut. Clint has games where he's soft. But has a more potential. I don't see him taking a pay cut for us and would probably walk this summer.

    Plus Deandre's numbers would skyrocket in our offense with CP3 and Harden. Capela would go somewhere else and become Bismack Biyambo lol.

    When you have players who are proud to wear a specific jersey, they'll give it more heart. Jordan loves Houston. Id take him anyday. I love Capela but if we want to win now he isn't the best option

    Can DeAndre Jordan teach Harden how to have heart? - @swyyyguy

    Jordan (nor Capela) are the "win now missing piece".

    I like Capela but for this season DJ is better. He simply throws down with authority, Clint is on the soft side with more upside if he toughens up.
