That sounds good, Mecca.
I like that better than the other 2 players...I fully expect Smart to be a Celtic next season unless the Kings sign him a $20mil per year offer sheet, but he's someone that makes sense for them to go after. The defense and toughness he would bring is missing and he can defend SF's which means he could start next to Fox and Bogdan/Buddy.
Good luck my friend!!!!Noooooooooooo, Sir!

YeahLavine and Hood?
You hate everybody.never EVER mention our weak-ass, green and white wearing, bitch made crosstown rivals in my presence...
Monarch for fuckin' LIFE...!!
He makes more sense than them because of the defense and toughness, Hood makes sense because he's more of the SF size(even though most of his minutes have been at SG), and Lavine would only make sense if they think he can be a #1 or #2 guy on a winning team.Yeah
I wonder what Houston is trying to do. Losing two good 3-and-D guys and then planning on adding the No D Melo, who may not even help them on the offensive end.
On the other hand, though:

first ill address Capela. They are far apart from Capela for a couple reasons. First- no one that has cap room wants to sign him. I think right now only Atlanta and the Kings have cap space that is somewhat major--- Atlanta with 22 million and the Kings with 19 million
Houston is likely offering AT LEAST 18M. If you are Capela- and your options are 22 with Atlanta who doesnt want you anyway because they are rebuilding, and 19M with the Kings what do you do?
Houston knows they are just bidding against themselves at this point- but CApela knows he could do better next year when teams have more cap room.
Theres just no reason for Houston to offer anything over 20M a year- and Capela likely wants 25 a year. Its not like Capela is going else where.
In the end they will make a compromise- I am guessing its something like 3 years 65M.---- not the near max 30M or so he wants---- but over what any of Houstons competition could possibly pay.
as for the Rockets falling off? As long as they have Paul, Harden, Capela, Gordon and Tucker they will be fine. Ariza is solid but he is 33- hes not what he used to be. Mbah a Moute was a nothing before he got to Houston and just signed for 4.3M on a 1 year deal. That should tell you something.
Clippers just signed Moute, which means Houston's not returning any of their wings (Ariza) from last year.
