John Collins, fwiw, could play the 4, rebound ok for the position (15% rbd rate), space the floor (35 percent 3pt shooting), and score as a roll man, and he's trending upward defensively.. he'd be a decent developmental piece along with the Williamses in the front court..

Drummond and Rose for Hayward, Kanter and the Memphis pick would be an interesting win-now move by Ainge. I'm no great fan of Drummond, but he's gone at the end of the year anyway, and there could be interesting sign-and-trade possibilities over the Summer.

Kanter/Romeo/Wanamaker works on the trade machine.

Multi-team has Ainge written all over it. Ainge will probably get two 2nd round picks for helping facilitate the deal :lol:

Remember what RW3 brought as a rim runner when he still existed in our realm? Remember how much it opened up the offense? Now imagine someone who is better at it, with a better basketball IQ, and is a MUCH better defensive player.

Do it Danny. Give up the Grizz pick to get it done.

It’s tough so it probably has to be a 3 team deal. Thus multi-team deal.

If Celtics are involved it might not be for Capela. Atlanta gets Capela, Celtics get something else. Who knows? Celtics do have the draft assets Houston wants.

Capela would be a great add.
Anything would be a good add.

Just dont want 3 picks in the upcoming 1st round again.

Capela is too skinny to deal with Embiid or the Lopez brothers.

What am I missing here? For someone who everyone says is so good Capela seems to always on the verge of being traded.

I just attribute that to the roster construction and play style of the rockets and morey always treating his team like it’s a 2k roster
