I think you're STILL sleeping on Lively, my friend.
In the event of a Capela trade, I flatly do not believe he pushes Lively to the bench. I think the kid's chances of losing his starting job are in the rear-view mirror.
Why, then, would they trade for someone at Capela's salary to play spot minutes? I totally agree it would be nice to have him if Lively was injured. But, it would also be nice to have another Luka lying around. If he gets hurt, the team is screwed even worse! It's just not a situation wherein everything is going to be perfect.
