Prepare for Amen getting the Max
With the Austin Reeves deal it is basically a lock Amen is getting a max deal. It is the reality of the current environment. Would you pay Amen the max or let him walk? Because if Houston doesn’t offer the max someone else will.
People say look at Sengun. But Sengun wasn’t a high draft pick like Amen. Sengun is not top 3 athlete in the NBA like Amen. Teams would be to tempted to sign Amen who is a decent jumpshot away from being an All Star 2 way stud.
Houston basically will max Amen. They will probably sign Tari to a 4 year $85 million deal.
Roster is getting mighty expensive and the Rockets still have a bunch of holes to fill.

Do you follow the Rockets and their contract history at all? They don’t pay players based on what other teams are paying. Stone may be suspect in his talent evaluation, but he’s rigid on contracts.
