    Good for him, he's worked hard for it.

    A consolidation is coming.

    That's fine. Rather have him than Zeller. He's worked hard for it!

    How many non-guaranteed years do we think there are in that contract?

    Good for you, Big Nate.

    Now maybe he can get a few of those Tate/Holiday/Cam/Reed minutes? Because honestly in the very limited time he's had the opportunity he's outperformed all those guys this season.

    No he’s not…..he royally sucks. Watch his summer league tape and his last game. All he does is gun gun gun and can’t hit an outside shot or a pressure shot for his life. Another lousy Stone move!

    I’d like to see him get some real minutes. I’m intrigued.

    I'm no capologist but I wouldn't overthink it. His last 3 years are probably team option, so if Rockets want to star hunt this summer or next season he will be a cap relief filler.
