    I will miss your Canaan balls, and your grit, and hard work. It looked like you were coming into your own this year and needed some consistent playing time to find your way.

    I would not be surprised to see you become a rotation PG - that can shoot the rock.

    Not sure why McHale never played you, but then again, not sure if McHale is all that good at evaluation in the first place.

    Good luck Canaan - maybe we can overpay to get you back some day.

    :)

    I heard he wasn't a hard worker, thats why mcHale didn't play him unless he had to play him, but good luck to him.

    Disappointed to hear that, I heard that he felt he was better than the guys ahead of him and it bugged him - which probably got him sideways with the org if true.

    I guess we shall see, if the guy blows up somewhere else when we could have used him it will reflect poorly on our org.

    He's a great player. Canaan will make a good name for himself. Glad he's in the East.

    If the guy blows up somewhere else I will be absolutely shocked. He couldn't beat out Jason Terry for minutes. Let that sink in.

    I think he got traded because he complained of sexual harassment from Dwight

    Canaan, hope you get some run out east. You're too talented not to play.

    Not surprised. He was distracting Dwight with his Canaan Balls.

    Hope his future is bright and he does well.

    And if he fails to blow up somewhere else (Troy Daniels, anyone?), will you be willing to give our FO props?

    Morey took a lot of heat for not matching the Parsons contract, but Parsons's number are down across the board from last year and he hasn't exactly made a big difference for the Mavs, who have only improved by 3 wins over last year's post-ASG record.
