Rockets Close to Agreement with Dekker

It is important that he signed before summer league.

By the way he signed 4 year deal. Year 3&4 are team options.

 

Lol! Nailed it.

 

What about a double dekker for 2 point shots?

 

I think only when he gets a double-double they should say Double-Dekker. Basically when he gets 10 Turnovers, 10 Field Goal Misses.

Dekker and Harrell just signed 4-year deals. I wonder what this means irt to Smith.

 

agreement? i thought 1st rd pick salaries are already set

 

1st round pick contracts are set 4 yr deals with the last two years as team options. harrell is the typical morey second rounder deal. if he's a bust it's only around the minimum, if he's not that's a few years of talent on the cheap.

 

Harell signed??? How much???

 

teams and players can negotiate between 80%-120% of the scaled amount. teams pretty much always give 120%.

one team tried to sign a player to 80% a few years ago. i think it might have been kahn. there was a huge media fuss and the player was eventually given 120%. the following year? the spurs actually sign a player to 80% and there was no fuss, lol.

 

I missed this too. Link anyone?

 

It was a tweet that was wrong.

Ah nice. Because Dekker and Harrell are two completely different situations and his signing is much more important to our situation than Dekkers. I mean..newsworthy. Dekker's signing is just a matter of beaurocracy.

 

He won't be here at the start of the season. Will be shipped out in a trade for our PG

 

WOW, this is the most impressive signing for Rockets this off-season.

 

That's all first round contracts.

 

Van Horn averaged 16 and 7 over his career. I'd be pleased if Dekker turned out like KVH.

 

Let's get it done before Spurs sign him.
