Capela is a better rebounder, and a little better defender (although I don't think by as much as a lot of folks think), but otherwise very similar players. If we assume for a second that they both rebound to their old selves, and take into account that Capela's cap hit is much higher than Holmes, I don't think the difference is a significant asset.On top of what KL said, he is a significantly better rebounder especially on the offensive side. At their respective peaks, Holmes scored 12 ppg while Capela scored 15. Some significant (in very important places for this team) differences and some marginal ones makes it a huge difference IMO.
