The job description only requires a dunk during the season and offseason videos of shooting 3's.

Another day, another ridiculous amount of KAT posts. KAT's the new (or oldest, maybe) Spida. I didn't think I'd miss the Spida conversations, but here we are.

If that’s what you’re waiting on, then this is worth sharing.

Interesting if we looked into him if we can’t sign him.. would that have been a S&T for him? Or how would this have even worked

Mitch + Deuce for Capela? Almost works dollar for dollar. Weird.

This is starting to become like Ben Simmons summer workout vids. He makes 2 threes in a row and is compelled to post it and we all know he's gonna shoot Tony Gwyn's batting average from the line when the season starts.

And would be a downright awful trade. They could add 2 1st rounders and still wouldn't accept it.

Forget Capella... instead, look at this:

ATL Receives: Randle, Deuce, Sims

NYK Receives: Hunter, Okongwu, 2025 1st from SAC (lotto protected), 2028 1st Round Pick Swap, 2029 1st Rounder (unprotected), 2031 1st Round Pick (top 3 protected)

Yes, I agree with you. I'm just mathing bro. Capela as a trade target is a head scratcher as far as the $$$ goes.

Maybe he was a target last year with Dejounte Murray as well but that ship has sailed. His contract doesn't fit.

He specifically said "the back-up 5 is the next domino to fall." How is KAT a backup 5?



"Mitchell Robinson, he’s on the roster. He’s here now, but you know, he has a history of getting hurt. So, you need a backup center who can start 30 games next season, and I know they’ve continued to be in touch with Precious Achiuwa, their own free agent.

I think they’ve also had casual trade talks with some high-salaried veterans about some high-salaried veteran centers on the trade market.”


He also said this. Ha! :lol: (see bold)

Seems like 2 different trains of thought. The known... Mitch and Precious as a possible back up AND... NY had casual trade talks for high salaried veteran centers. That's veterans with a S. Center with an S. So multiple possibilities for "high-salaried veteran" centers.

Cryptic Begley drives me nuts sometimes. Just say what you know bro.

Lol it wasn’t two different trains of thoughts, he just tripped up on his words when speaking


This is correct. Begley clarifies that he was talking about Capella with that infamous high salaried veteran reference.
