What other choice do they have? If they let Capela walk because they're afraid of gong into the luxury tax then they might as well blow up the team and start over -- it's not like they'll be left with any other options to improve with their current cap situation... And you don't just blow up a team that was a Chris Paul injury away from beating the Warriors and going to the Finals. Capela isn't going anywhere.
