    You can smell Parsons' salt from all the way over here. Love it.

    Parson might be the greatest con artist since Charles Ponzi or Bernie Madorf.

    Somehow, this good looking, smoth talker was able to get 2 Max contracts from 2 different teams.

    How does he do it?????

    Who said good looks doesn't get you $$$$$$

    The owner signed him so Parson can be his wing man. The 2 Max contracts he received was so the owners can use him as wing man when they go clubbing.

    If you want hot chicks at the club, who else is better to attract them? Answer: Chandler Wingman Parson.

    You guys are brutal. Parsons played very well for us and we didn't pay him much. He was a good teammate and helped us recruit Dwight. He got his max contract elsewhere because we decided not to match. Sure, he said some unflattering things out of bitterness on the way out, but it was our choice for him to go. If I were in his shoes, I would've have signed those max deals any day of the week.

    Yeah, I booed him, but his career might be over now. I wouldn't root for these kinds of injuries on anyone, let alone someone I enjoyed rooting for in Rocket red. I'm going to bygones be bygones and remember the good times.

    He has another injury?

    General Manager Chris Wallace said, “Chandler has the full support of myself, Coach Fizz and the entire team and we are all focused on getting him healthy.”

    I'd tell Coach Fizz that Chandler has fizzled out. When the Grizzlies come out with a big anniversary coffee table book someday, the chapter on Parsons, written by Chandler, of course, should be titled, Autobiography of a Flea. Those familiar with the classic film of the same name will get the reference. Parsons bit the Grizzlies in the butt. Whether the bear is male or female is yet to be determined.

    Chandler's in the rear.

    He still has $200 millions, still good looking, still living better than the rest of the 99.99999999999% if you're crying about him.

    99.99999999% of the rest of the world would try for his position in a heart beat.

    He's still the best looking man in the NBA , with money!

    Once Bev got his cleaned up he came back better than ever, let's hope the same for Parsons.

    I keep reading how its just the first year and he signed for 4 years in all the Chandler articles.
    Is the first few years free where you're not expected to work?

    He only helped recruit Dwight so he could become a restricted free agent sooner via a deal his agent Fegan made with Morey. It's all business which I don't blame him for but let's not act like he did it just for the good of the team.

    Beverley is a founding member of the X-Men. Chandler still hasn't recovered from his first injury 3 years ago.

    It wasn't bitterness fueling Parsons' comments, it was Parsons being an *******.

    Parsons (or his friend) was the one who put up a picture of him and Cuban laughing after he signed his contract after Morey let him out of his Rockets contract because of a handshake deal.

    It was Parsons who talked about the city of Houston for no reason.

    It was Parsons who was offended because people thought Harden was better than he was.

    He was even more disrespectful in Dallas playing for more money and playing less games.

    Parsons is not that guy you want to stick up for.

    This. Parson made douchy decisions. Parsons has lots of money. He'll be fine but not as a productive NBA player.
