This dude is one of the fakest most unloyal b****es I have ever seen. He even managed to con me as a fan, so I don't blame dallas for being high on him initially. Hopefully karma catches upto him.
That's if Orlando wants any part of him at all. Skiles isn't a coach that wants all that prima donna crap around. If their front office is smart then they actually use that $40 million cap room to build a solid roster.

i'm more concerned that the tips of deandre's middle and index fingers are at a 45 degree angle in the wrong direction. wth?
MacMahon: • Could be a standoff brewing heading into free agency. •We(MacMahon & Cooperstein) might be the biggest backers of Chandler in the media. •There are fans of Parsons in the Mavs front office(Cuban chief among them) •Parsons wants & expects a max deal; his agent is telling him you'll absolutely get a max contract. Mavs are saying that's rich. We like you but at 4 years, $72M, not 4 years, $92M/$96M. •What about 4 years, $84M? That's middle ground. •My deal is this: if there's a standoff and they hold firm, we're not going max, if they draw a line in the sand and he tests the market, he says "I love Dallas but I can't leave money on the table", what's plan B? How are you replacing him? (S&T for Evan Fournier?) •Barnes & Batum will have other suitors. Start Anderson? Who's initiating the offense? You're asking your PG to do everything. You need more than one ball handler. Williams & Barea will miss games. They're not 78/79 game players. •With Parsons, that's the reservation for the Mavs. Much "lesser" injury but same knee two straight years. Donnie Nelson said it'll come down to dollars & injury status. In other words, we don't want to pay max and are concerned with the knee. I'll go out and say the Parsons camp didn't appreciate Donnie trying to depreciate his value on the open market discussing his knee. •Coop: Parsons said at exit interviews, he's not ready to run & cut. Just how injured was he and how serious was this surgery? •Mac: He said July, that's when he ramps up his regular offseason routine. He was saying he'll be fine for his normal offseason routine but going into free agency, he might have to work out for teams. •Coop: It won't be enough to show x-rays and talking to doctors. Yes, he might have to work and the idea of him having an agreement in place before July 1st so he can begin recruiting... •Mac: Don't hold your breath on that. That would require drastic change by one or the other. Little chance he settles for 4 years, $72M without testing the market. •Very interesting when push comes to shove whether Cuban will pay what it takes to keep Parsons. I see no simple plan of replacing his production. •Coop: How much does Parsons want to be here or is it all about the money? •Mac: This is where he wants to be but wants his cake and eat it too. Smooth & easy negotiation and out on the recruiting trail July 1? Don't count on it.
it's a freaking joke that Parsons and his handlers are expecting a max contract. Even Cuban has to think about that one, especially when there are quality small forwards out there (e.g. Batum) to be had for either the same type of money or less.
It's his damn agent. His agent treats him like he's a movie star and cultivates the Diva in him. Remember that fake movie trailer they did? (http://nba.nbcsports.com/2014/02/12...e-star-in-fantastic-fake-movie-trailer-video/ I can't find the video itself, just the story for it) If I was Dirk, I'd be like "I didn't take a pay cut to watch you get injured during crunch time every season. Gimme my money back!"
18 mil a season ain't enough for Parsons?! I guess it's a good thing we let him walk. And can you imagine what that'll mean Durant's worth?
