    I believe that the minimum is lower for players with <3 years of NBA service

    $1,512,601 is also 2 years minimum salary.

    David Weiner already did the number. Wait till 2/21 to sign some buyout guy. And sign House on last day of the season. This all hope Capela doesn't get his bonus.

    No. Must convert before season end.
    I guess we can sign someone now if we don't plan to sign any 10 days contract.
    Problem is ... there is no good candidate.

    April 10 is okay?

    max spend is 514K by April 10.

    Capela can hit 68% FT for the rest of 25 games.

    I don't know how the bonus thing work. He get 1M bonus if we reach WCF. Does that count against the cap?

    Free agents can't wait to sign with the Rockets, but they'll have to.

    Former NBA Forwards currently in China...

    Jared Sullinger
    REB - 13
    3P% - 40

    D-MO -
    REB - 14.6
    3P% - 34

    Speights, Brandon Bass, Blanche are also playing there but I think the two above have the best stats.

    If the Nuggets issue w/ Bzdelik was why they cut Melo, then the Rockets sabatoged themselves trying to settle petty scores. People don't realize our current team is among the worst at defensive rebounding. Melo is a solid rebounder. We could USE a 6'8 wing that can help us rebound right now, especially giving the minutes PJ's playing. Doing Melo dirty, I believe is why key buyout targets aren'tt coming here

    The idea that we are going to sign House right before the playoffs and that will somehow be good for us is crazy . I guess it's better than not signing him at all ... but he won't have played in NBA action for like 4 months .

    That's assume we can sign a buyout candidate. If we can't get one by 2/21, we will have to convert him and a 10-day contract. Apparently 2/21 is the deadline we need to get 14 players on the roster.

    I can't believe we didn't go after Enes Kanter who just signed with the Blazers. He'd have been the perfect fit
