    Yup, same damn role as he had here. Option 2B/3.

    This whole "I'm ready for a bigger role" was just masking the fact that Parsons, after being let out of his contract early, went and signed like an ******* with another squad in a damn night club.

    Good for the agent, good for Parsons, & good for the Mavs. Yet somehow Morey, Harden & Dwight are the assholes in all this.

    Not at all, but I feel that some role players might not want to join the Rockets, if they feel that the organization does not have any long term interest in them.

    Says everyone but you.

    As for getting the money back, I suppose it is technically possible, which you seem to think means guaranteed.

    Rockets did nothing wrong. Dallas did what they thought they should. Fegan did his job. Parsons got what he wanted. Move on.

    Where are we on the Dragic-Bledsoe situation? Any other teams rumored to have interest in Bledsoe? Has Morey followed anyone interesting on Twitter recently?

    Nothing wrong with that unless you are the one being churned.

    NBA players, like most people, tend to find it a bother to move; especially when you may be forced to move somewhere you don't want to live and work for and with people you don't want to work for/with.

    Like a lot of pretty people, Chandler's not too smart.

    Fegan has played/is playing him like a beautiful, air-filled violin.

    More like a Stradivarius.

    Parsons is smart enough to know how to pick up a $15,000,000 per-year check.

    When Jason Friedman interviewed Daryl Morey for an article he wrote about Chandler Parsons last season, Morey told Friedman that Morey thought that of all the players on the Rockets, Parsons was the most likely one to be a future GM.

    Won't crucify Morey here but do wonder how much behind the scenes research he actually did on Melo before FA. Money and to a lesser degree winning must've been important to him but I think his wife had a huge influence on keeping him in a big market.

    During the draft I wonder if there was a chance to deal Parsons, Asik, Jones and a pick (or Capela) for Love before they declined Parsons option. Could've also thrown in Lin and taken a bad contract off the Wolves' hands too. Guess we'll never know.

    That's like saying Harden is the best two guard in the NBA. What's the competition look like?

    Him saying, at least for a moment in time, that it was LA is further evidence that it was never about winning.
