With Aldridge announcing his retirement, the Nets’ inside line can be said to be in a vacuum state. After Griffin was seriously injured, he could not provide rim protection at all, and Jordan had limited ability, and the inside line that the Nets needed most Either Ade can provide a certain frame protection + offensive killer, or it is an inside monster that combines rebounds + eating cakes. Interestingly, Harden's old friend seems to meet this standard, and he is Kahuang Capela. .
In today's regular season matchup, the Eagles lost to the Knicks in overtime, and Capela played 41 minutes, 12 of 17 shots, and contributed 25 points, 22 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 1 block. I have to say that the data of double 20+ is very rare in today's small-ball league, and Capela can average 15.7 points and 14.7 rebounds this season, shooting 60.4%, which is also the second in NBA history. A player with an average of 14+14 and a shooting percentage of 60%+, and the other is Chamberlain.
Compared to Chamberlain's player ability is definitely not too bad, and Capela is only 26 years old now in the year of playing, rebounding + eating cake + protecting the frame + young and healthy, which is exactly what the Nets lack the most Factors, this season, Capela made 567 shots at the bottom of the basket and hit 351 goals, with a shooting rate of 61.9%, so the question is, how can such a strong cake eater Nets be able to get him?
In fact, it is not difficult to get Capela. Capela’s annual salary this season is only $16 million, while the Nets’ current bargaining chip is Dinwiddie, whose annual salary has also reached $11 million. The $5 million difference can only be filled by giving the transaction exception . For the Eagles, they have no necessary reason to keep Capela. After all, they still have Collins and Collins who need to renew their contracts. Okonggu et al.
If the Eagles choose to let Capela go, then they can leave enough salary space to renew Collins. In fact, the Eagles' team building plan has always been based on Trae Young. The Gemini combination builds the team, and Capela is more replaceable. Then after the trade to Capela, the Nets don't need to worry about the inside line and health problems. Under the leadership of Durant , Irving, Harden, and Capela, the Nets also really have a competitive advantage. Crown Capital, do you agree with this?
