Knight: A lot of people are talking about how Clint Capela is still not signed. How are those negotiations going and should we expect a deal anytime soon?

Morey: We can say [the negotiations] are going back-and-forth. I think restricted free agency is pretty difficult. For sure, Clint is going to be a very wealthy guy no matter what happens at the end of all of this. We’re looking forward to getting him back on the Rockets as soon as we can.

Knight: What do you think about another superstar, LeBron James, joining the already-tough Western Conference?

Morey: I think until the recent trade between the Spurs and the Raptors that every All-NBA player in the last x-number of years was in the Western Conference. I think the Ringer did the best video on this I’ve seen in a long time with the Eastern Conference being a bunch of players prancing through lilacs and the Western Conference was a Mad Max kind of world (video referenced).

We’re used to dealing with it and, hopefully, next year we do as well as we did last year in terms of navigating a top seed.

Knight: The offseason is far from over. What other additions, besides the one you can’t talk about, are the Rockets looking to make this summer?

Morey: I think we’re always active in the trade market if we see something. We don’t have anything imminent there, but before February we always try to add something to the team. I think that has a decent chance [of happening].

In terms of signings, probably not much left. We do have our past draft picks or recent draft picks to sign so we have to get those done. But signings-wise, I don’t think you’ll see anything until later in the year in the buyout-type season.
