    Well, looks like we will be hard capped.

    Will he be a RFA at the end of the contract?

    D-Mo's uncertainty and Josh Smith's loss has a lot to do with this IMO.

    Yes, 3 years or less makes you a RFA at the end of the year. First round picks are RFA at the end of their 4th year.

    Seriously, hard-capping for a rookie?

    Montrezl Harrell is a true professional and I hope he retires a Rocket.

    Win now baby.

    Besides, the last move that triggers the hard cap shouldn't be weighed over the previous moves.

    Hmm, so Morey is hard capping himself for Harrell? Ok, well, I guess that means they really believe in the kid. I just hope they are right.

    Personally I like the move. I think Montrezl is going to be a good Rocket, and that this three year contract will end up being a good investment.

    I'll definitely be going to see him play when RGV come to Austin to play the Spurs D League team here.

    Glad it's happening, though I was leaning toward giving just the one year deal and going forward from there. But I ain't mad. Welcome to the team, rook.
