[WOJ] Capela out 4-6 weeks - Clint Capela Thumb Injury thread

He’s been awful - but this is really bad. He may be as untradeable as Ryno

 

Morey shouldn't rely on Nene anyways. There was no reason not to sign Javale McGee to a cheap contract this season instead of all the junk he signed to "replace" Ariza, Luc.

Start offering first rounders to bad teams for their big men. Big men are needed even with a healthy Capela. Teams with big name players like Jimmy Butler do not care about late first rounders. Enes Kanter , even as an expiring contract, would be a welcome addition over Knight. You can even afford to give him a 3 year, 60 million deal in the offseason by dealing an expiring Gordon.

Rockets Trade
Brandon Knight or Eric Gordon, whoever Knicks want , Knight will guarantee a higher draft pick
Marquess Chriss
1st rounder

Knicks trade
Enes Kanter

 

I don’t agree with resigning him let alone $60 million, maybe id give him 5 million a year because of his defense. And I don’t agree with trading Gordon for him at all. But check out the trade for kanter I created, some, many (probably half) people wouldn’t even trade Knight alone for him lol, which is what the thread was all about, Knight for kanter.

 

Lopez from the bulls for just knight chriss n a pick bomb

 

Get lopez from the bull morey. Thats the move

 

Gordon and a draft pick for a player we will bench in the playoffs? Lol.

 

I wonder if those extra 12 minutes of play did anything to make the injury worse?

Meanwhile..

Eric Gordon out, bug flew in his eye. Will be reevaluated.

 

What about Mo Speights? Dewayne Dedmon?

 

Rockets need to spend their main assets for a 3-D wing SF-PF, not for a backup center. Pretty good backup center is available for free. Yes, I'm talking about Willie Reed again.

 

Just look at his advanced stats in g-league https://www.basketball-reference.com/gleague/players/r/reedwi01d.html
He played good in the NBA too https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/r/reedwi02.html

 

He gets back with a vengeance.

 

You guys want frontcourt help?

 

Any chance the 2nd opinion says he doesn't have to be out as long as originally projected?

 

deserves its own thread so I can use my So You're Saying It's a Random Trade Idea meme

 

The Suns will listen to any offer to trade Knight for Anderson.

 

His name keeps popping into my mind. . . . .he would be a near perfect fit
but . . .. . that f**** Khloe!!

All that. . . . .for F*CKING KANTER???? Hell naw!

Rocket River

 

Imagine the lockerroom conversations

Tristan: "......."
Harden: ".........I f*cked her first"

 

" . .. and on a MVP Level."

Seriously . . .. .
I could see far far too many . . .. eye contact moments during Rockets Events
HArden looking away smiling . .. .

Doubtful. Isn't the 2nd opinion to see if surgery is the preferred route? Either way, he's out 5 weeks minimum. He'll be out for sure for a month and then there's a week off for the All-Star Break.
