    Per the Yahoo article:
    http://sports.yahoo.com/news/new-ma...treated-him-during-free-agency-030411610.html


    So... Parson involved in recruiting Howard in 2013 => Howard to Rockets.
    Parsons not involved in recruiting Melo or Bosh in 2014 => Melo and Bosh stay with their own teams.

    Great...I would write him off but it sounds like he's got a huge chip on his shoulder. In b4 the "Parsons is overrated. I hope he blows his ACL. Batum pwned him" dumb comments.

    Lol, this dude got a big head real fast. Got a unworthy contract amount and now thinks he's the best in the league. Really hope he has an awful year just to shut him up.

    By then, Nowitzki will be way too old to be the first option. If, in two years time, Parsons is the Mavs best player, Howard will either stay in Houston or go someplace besides Dallas.

    I think the "bro-mance" with Parsons and Howard is overblown...Howard came here for

    This season Parsons improves to 18ppg and still no D.

    Harden continues his 25ppg in an unbelievably efficient fashion, but starts trying a little bit on D. Makes him 3rd best player in NBA.

    Houston has max cap space to play with in offseason to get a 3rd superstar.

    Parsons calls Howard, come play with no other stars in Dallas.
    Howard is like uh, suuure, lemme just check with Chris Bosh about how to do that....

    Chandler is such a great guy. He's acting like a douche to sooth us Rocket fans. He's making this break up so much easier. God, he's so considerate.

    Yeah recruit him to the Mavs and then Parsons bolts after a year. Dwight won't be following Parsons around again.

    "I'm the best recruiter in the NBA," Parsons said. "Whatever Mark and the Mavericks need, they got me to do that."

    reminds me of

    Parsons: 'I'm the best' small forward in this series

    take it with a grain of salt.. he didnt learn it the first time around so maybe the 2nd he will

    Pretty huge "if" there. It's not like they had a spectacular off-season. Picked up an aging-but-still-effective defensive center and overpaid for Parsons. Signed an aging SG whose best days are long behind him. Lost VC.

    Sounds like they'll be right about in the same spot last year to me. Parsons isn't going to automatically improve that team.

    No worries. Was quoting other posts that I've come across. Talk about classless fans. There's always a bunch of them on every internet forum. And to everyone who is ragging on Parsons, wtf do you expect him to say. The man felt slighted, right or wrong, he felt slighted. You can't dictate how people feel. To say that he doesn't have a right to speak his mind because he's not a superstar is asinine. I wonder if any of those posters passed any form of standardized testing.
