It was over them trying to land Bosh since that's not happening so they would just ink him no?

I'd love for Danny to pluck Capela. I'm not sure he's worth a future Celtics or Brooklyn first given that Houston would be negotiating from a position of need and that he was picked later in the draft than the likely value of the picks. The Clippers pick seems fair.

I wouldn't go higher than the Philly pick(s).  The Sterling situation isn't resolved and the west is very competitive.  Keep that Clippers pick for something better than Capela.

And it looks like sterling will still be owner for at least the beginning of the season.....if not more. That should be a top 4 pick, if we hold the players accountable for their statements in regards to not playing for a racist. Its nice when these millionaires do photo ops like wearing a shirt inside out, but God forbid they do anything now that the twitter and tmz media storm has moved onto the next thing. I feel sorry for the people in the housing projects he owned, but I hate the clippers for not being authentic.

Thats just how I feel right now. Im so sick of fake outrage and this twitter media storm that always moves on in 2 weeks and nothing gets done.....ever. They should have fought when Sterling was actively discriminating, not fake it when the cameras are on them.

Capela is an athletic big who could slot in at the 5 for us behind Zeller and Favarini.  If all it costs us is the Philly "1st" I'd make the trade since it's more likely to turn into a pair of 2nd rounders.

This is so stupid on the part of the Rockets. What are they doing? You take a Euro, pencil the heck in that your gonna be spending 600k on a buyout. That's happening. That's the current status quo.
