    I wasn't really following his career much after he left Houston...

    2017 Salary: $22,116,750

    6.3 PPG, 1.9 RPG, 1.2 APG

    36.7% FGs
    24.5% 3PTs
    86.7% FTs

    8.78 PER

    Hmmm...

    But what happened to him as a player? Is this because of injuries? He was one of the Rockets leaders and carried this franchise for a while.

    Yes injuries. Since that microfracture he got, when I've seen him play this year, he can barely move around. Slow as molasses and looks like he's in pain all the time.

    Yep, his knees are probably in a very bad condition. Too bad they took him out against us in the second half lul

    And... it was only a few months ago that the Memphis fans were really happy that Parsons chose to sign with them because he is the first marquee free agent the Grizzlies have signed in franchise history. :cool:

    They could've had one of the best front courts with Parsons/Zbo/Gasol.

    He got paid. He then got fat and changed his name to Chandler Portions. His head and ego got too big. He insulted the city of Houston and Houston cursed.

    Now he is basically on the treadmill of irrelevancy as a basketball player.

    Good riddance to this scumbag.

    I'm just glad the DMo threads are finally drying up.

    Could his game not adjust to the failing athleticism?
