    Last season Parsons used to get tip in dunks every few games, but this season I haven't seen him do it once. What's changed?

    He's handling the ball more on the perimeter, so he's not as free to crash the boards as he used to be.

    I saw Yao Ming shoot a 3-pointer a few years ago. Why haven't I seen that much since then?

    They slowed down last season, not this season. He had the majority of them, if not all, during a short span of time. He was just trying to get on the map, doesn't need that anymore.

    Not true.
    He hits some big 3s last few games.
    Chandler always a BANGBRO.

    1. Asik eats rebounds. 2. He usually covers the best player on the other team.

    His game is different from last year. Last year, Parsons was more of a garbage man who cleans up the glass, grab rebounds and play defense. Now, his role increased big time and he has to contribute a lot more on offense like being a play maker, put the ball on the floor and score.

    You need the tip in order to bang, but his GF seems cool with it so who cares.

    In addition to developing other skills, might his shoulder injury affect his bang?

    I have serious man love for Parsons. The same kind of man love I had for Horry, Cassell, and Cuttino Mobley.

    Agreed. It's fun to watch him when he's on the floor.
