I didn't get to watch the game tonight but PLEASE tell me the crowd chanted "role player" at him. Or "superstar" sarcastically.
What a dick- yeah, maybe it had something to do with you trash-talking Houston, Bing. In the immortal words of Johnny Cash:

People calling other people classless for booing Parsons are probably the same ones who dont even attempt to go at games and just sit at home, or actually go to games and just sit in their seats and dont say crap the whole game. I was at the game and u better believe i enjoying booing that clown.

I look at this in two ways, maybe three now: 1) Anyone who is pissed at him for actually signing with the Mavs, seriously you cannot tell me you would not have done the same given the insane amount money he was offered. Plus he was told to sign an offer sheet and the Rockets would match. 2) Now if you are pissed about any comments he has made about Houston then you have a legit reason to be pissed. *3) Possible third angle now would be being pissed about the hard foul on DMO. Personally, I don't blame him for taking that much money and as far as his comments about Houston, well sticks and stones. I would not boo him over it and give him the satisfaction of letting it know it bothered me but I thought the hard foul was a bit much and if he EVER does something like that again I would definitely start booing him. That was definitely a flagrant foul and uncalled far.
Why? Parsons legitimately dominated. 1-8 from 3 point land 4-7 from the charity stripe A big 13 points to help the full strength, hometown Mavs conquer the shorthanded Knicks.
