Capela just might be the best center not named Anthony Davis.

Gotta love the versatility of this squad. Using CP3 as a scorer more than a facilitator in this series.

Harden didn’t even have to play his best tonight.

Bring on Game 5!

Heck, the team as a whole didn’t even seem to be playing so great. There was Paul, Capella, and that was about it, it seemed like..

The ref could have shown some authority and given the tech to the guy who instigated the exchange.
Instead he took the weak cop-out route and issued a double technical foul which essentially punished Capela for clapping and saying "I like that."

Above all others that call really perturbed me.
I'm still a little miffed about it, lol.

Yeah, Harden got the team off to a great start but it was CP3 and Capela who really brought this one home.

I hate the “double tech” call just about every time. That one clearly should not have been on Capela, but hey...I guess that it fired him up even more.

By the way, have we mentioned that he’s Swiss?

Speaking of 2nd best center...

It's probably VERY GOOD that the media refuses to fawn all over Clint. It might help the team in negotiations.
It's kinda like how Houston never used to get any recognition as a city nationally, then when the recession hit, we made it a point to brag about how we actually had jobs and our real estate was dirt cheap and then 400,000,000 Californians (or somesuch) moved here and now we have $280-650,000 houses all over our little swamp.

Point being, this is Houston, and results are typically better when there's more humility.
Morey 2020.
