Absolutely! They would be foolish not to expect Capela playing a huge role for them this season. I expect a pretty big breakout season, and him being a max player next offseason. Melo and Willy aint close to the value of Capela.

Why on earth would Houston give up Capela?

That's the trade I've been saying all along would be the best deal the Knicks could get and I would be fine with keeping Love or trading him for assets.

They competing for a championship so either you come up off talent or no deal

Capela would be the best player in that trade. Morey isnt stupid.

Morey would be an idiot to give up Capela. He is very good defensively, he rebounds very well, and he finishes well around the basket making him very valuable in the p&r game. Capela is an excellent modern day big man.

And Cleveland doesn't want to trade Love to bring in Melo.

F*ckin Google.

Never trust Google. That **** gives you the wrong hours for businesses. Made me miss getting food because it told me a restaurant was closing later than it really was.

They would and should not. I would even accept a deal of Capela, Anderson (plus the unguaranteed contracts) for Melo, Willy, and a future first rounder. No hesitation. At least in the east, Capela has all star potential written all over him.

I'd trade Melo for a urinal cake...but I'd have to think a bit giving up Willy even if Capela's coming back.

Melo clearly wanted to come to the Knicks. It was an open secret. So the Knicks had all the leverage.

The Rockets clearly want Melo and Melo is willing to do away with his NTC to make it happen.

The Knicks have all the leverage.

Also, not true. Melo wanted to come to New York. He was also bein courted by Brooklyn. If he were a free agent, the Knicks would have had leverage. Instead, Melo was open to Brooklyn and the Knocks felt pressure to get a deal done by the deadline in order to get him. Otherwise, they would have waited. This gave up all of their leverage.

Please. He would be a one-year rental in Brooklyn. One-year rentals happen.

The extension was a part of negotiations. If you recall, Melo wanted the extra year of guaranteed money...only Denver could offer that or a team that acquired him via trade. That's why he pushed for a trade in the first place. Melo was the one that wanted a trade and made it clear that he wasn't going to resign. He was very open to Brooklyn.
