Yeah, I don't get it either. I also don't get it for Capela. Why go to a team with a borderline All-Star center and a backup they're paying $13 mil a year?
Maybe Capela wanted to be back in Houston for personal, non-basketball reasons.
Exactly. No way the Pistons rate Duncan Robinson higher than either guy.
Royce and Grayson probably (and reasonably) have higher 2k ratings than Robinson but neither is the high volume shooter from 3 that Robinson is, which is the skill set they lost with Beasley. I think purely as an offensive gravity shifter who can get defenses scrambling without having the ball in his hands, Robinson is one of the best in the league not named Steph.
Ya they probably should throw the season like the Celtics are.
LOL, the Celtics are not throwing the season.
I mean they lost Tatum, KP, Jrue, Horford, and Kornet and replaced them with Garza, Simons, and Niang?
I’m not saying they will lose on purpose, but the whole point of this season will be to get out of the 2nd apron, reset the luxury tax and try again when Tatum is healthy. They are not trying to contend. Feels like a 6-8 seed to me.

Jalen Brown, Derrick White, + role players would win them 25 games in the west. But they do have a a shot at the playoffs in the east.
