Yes, Manu Ginoboli, on one of the greatest teams of all time. Also Harden would have been as well, on another title contender, if OKC wasn't a small market. We still had the ability to match Parsons when the Ariza signing was anounced, although it was later rolled into a trade. I like Brewer, but Parsons is just a better player. Worrysome, but gotta take risks.
Just read it LOL. The guy is just full of himself. Super hard to root for someone like this. I can't remember him being this cocky in Houston. Now he throws Monta and Rondo under the bus for not being good enough for him to play second fiddle to. That could be true, but man you don't say that about former teammates.
They need to be showing confidence in their team.... Let's be clear here though, there is no issue with Parsons showing confidence in himself or his team, the issue was about him throwing cheap shots at Houston.
WOW I knew he was cocky but he's taking it to new levels. Who does this guy think he is? Such a shame, he was so humble and hard working when he first joined the team. After that, ran his mouth a bit, but since he's joined the Mavs he's gone fully arrogant.

I haven't followed Portions at all this season Is he back in the court? Does he have a double chin? Is he still crawling under Cuban's table?
He has been on a minutes restriction all season thus far it began with he would only play one half of basketball...Coach has now been giving him around 22 minutes a game but he sits out back to backs....So that 5th seed is with a broken chandler
I think they're playing out of their minds...I'm not sure it's sustainable. Dirk is shooting nearly 45% from 3...and 50% from the field...at 37 years old. Yeah, I'm not sure that holds up. (His twitter comment about skating lessons in the offseason was just awesome though) Zaza is playing great..averaging over 10 rebounds per game...he's averaged 5.7 his entire career.... Maybe all that holds up...but given age, I wouldn't bet on it.
Whilie it woudl have been disappointing to say this a month ago, I would settle for the Rockets beating out the Mavericks to give them the 9th seed this year.

I wonder if Parsons will opt out to get a new deal from Dallas, or wait another year (at $16 million more) so he can get healthy and put up bigger numbers. I'd say the answer would be obvious (not opt out) if it wasn't for the unknown impact that the cap increase will have on the market.
