Morey is going to have to make a decision, it makes no sense to keep both Bud and parsons, their basically the same player. It would make more sense to trade Bud since he has already established himself. What do you all think?
Right now Budinger is very valuable to the team as he is getting paid relatively nothing and playing pretty well comparatively. We don't know if Parsons can even play at the NBA level yet. Budinger's job is pretty safe, at least until Parsons is done with his probationary period and shows he can ball.
Too early to say we need to move Bud to make room for Parsons. I think Morey loves Parsons and envisions him being in the rotation, so something will eventually have to give, but that could play out in many different ways. We also don;t know how effective Morris will be as a full-time SF. I want to trade Bud for several reasons (he's not a good defender, he's not a good shooter, I have faith in Morris, and i think Bud has value to other teams), but none of those reasons has to do with Chandler Parsons.
I think you need to look into Parsons game more. They are not the same player. If budinger is out it's going to be because Morrison made him expendable, not parsons.

Parsons has nothing on Bud..... I think when it's all said and done either Lee or Martin might get moved and Bud might become our backup 2.
Bro, I didn't say he couldn't score. Bud gets to the rim, which is one of the best parts of his game. I just said that he's not a good shooter. Look at his FG% 42% and his 3pt % 32%. Are you telling me that Bud is a good shooter?
I disagree on the 1st part. What separates Bud and Pars, is that Pars can be effective if his shot is off, and Bud as seen in the past cannot. Which is why I think Morey will sell high on Bud, while there still a market for him. Also T-Will in my opinion will be the back up 2, if players like Lee or Martin get moved.
Offensively, Bud is inconsistent. Capable of outbursts of scoring in one game, followed by complete duds next game. Defensively, he sucks, plain and simple. Opposing s/f have the Rockets' games circle on the calendar because they know they will have a scoring explosion against Bud. Indeed, those who say Bud improved defensively last year remind me of some of the folks who said Brooks was a good defensive player prior to the start of last season.
I was wondering the same thing I dunno much about parsons . . . . . BUD is a keeper to me. . . a good bench man I think we give him one more year to test his consistancy which IMO is his worse issue Rocket River
fixed.. So since Bud is already established...should we trade K-mart, Lowry and Scola since they're also "established" players for some undrafted d-league players?
It seems to me that Parsons has more of an all-around game with good rebounding, dribbling, and passing while Chase is projected to be the better scorer.
Parson actually has a lot of similarities with Hedo Turkaglue. Both 6'10 F who can shoot the ball well and distribute it. But Bud is the keeper.
