    But he's a better defender than Capela! I read it in my BBH Insider Newsletter!

    Did Zhou Qi go to the Bahamas this summer as well? I don't think he was in the picture. Also, I guess he has to go back :(

    My guess: Roster spot needed because of a pending 2-for-1 trade.

    If nobody claims him, they'll probably sign him to the Vipers.

    Over/Under 3 days before the Spurs snatch him up for their D-League?

    Another swing and a miss for Holic

    I guess we'll have to find a new "Durant defender"

    I mean...I get it but the tools were there. Shot blocking, length, three point shot, decent bball IQ. Why not keep him and continue to develop?

    If it's all roster/cap mechanism stuff then yeah, that's different.
