Enough to get us into the playoffs? I think it’s damn close. Capela also still has a lot of upside, and is arguably the best defensive center in the league due to his ability to switch into guards.
Except Capela is a RFA -- all the reasons you like him are exactly why Houston won't let him walk... He only has a $7m cap hold and they can go over the cap to re-sign him.

If you're gonna swing for the fences with the draft and free agency this summer, why not go with Porter/Boogie and pray to the Basketball Gods that both can regain their former glory? Seems like a more realistic scenario than trying to pry away Capela.
