    Based Nurkic's deal, I would say Clint is worth about $15M a year. If he wants more than that, he should take the qualifying offer and work on his 3pt shot.

    Clint Capela did bruise his heel, injured his knee, broke his tibia. Fractured Orbital bone in Eye Socket. Clint needs to realize he should sign a big offer this offseason. NBA injuries to Athletic players with no shot can hurt him Financially.
    His Stock is High, his Agents think he is a elite All Star. Rockets need to step up in negotiations and Clint really needs to sign already.

    Capela and Nurkic are two different players, with very different strengths and weaknesses. That being said, I think Clint is more valuable. Clint is asked to do very few things, but he's doing them very well. I think a deal worth 15-17 million per year is very reasonable. Anything over 20 million would be an overpay for what he provides. Harden really makes Capela look much better compared to how he'd look on a different team. Put him on the current Cavs team and his value might drop to below 10 million.

    Yes, it is. 4yrs/60 M is quite reasonable. Capela doesn't agree with it probably. Will the Hawks give him the max? It seems not, for the time being.

    Capela getting the max from another team was a media created fallacy for the argument that the Rockets would lose Capela. And would serve as a reason why Lebron, PG13 & etc shouldn't come here or why CP3 would leave. They never realized that not a lot teams were willing to blow max money on a rim protecting rim runner. Clint will get a good deal , it will just take time.
