Clint Capela expects Rockets to beat the Warriors
The big man of the Rockets has big confidence for the season

Clint Capela thinks the Rockets can beat the Warriors this season.
Per Bleacher Report:
When I ask Doc what the Clippers, home to so many ex-Rockets thanks to the Paul trade, can do when they face Houston at the Toyota Center in 11 days, he says flatly: “No one’s slowed them down yet. I don’t know if anyone will.”
But is a new-look Capela enough to help Harden and Paul topple the Warriors? “We have to keep the advantage on them, by leading the Western Conference,” Capela says. “It’s going to be key for us to have home-court advantage in the playoffs. To go over there [to Oakland] is obviously hard. That advantage is going to be key for us.”
Yeah, but will you beat them? “I expect to beat them,” Capela says. If their confidence stays this high, Capela may not be the only voice in Houston who believes that.
