    Parsons minutes need to go down until his back is healed up. McHale is running him into the ground and I feel like his production doesn't warrant the insane amount of minutes he's getting. If he could defend better, then sure, but he isn't doing a good job of that. The coach is wayyy too stubborn.

    Actually Parsons has been doing that since last year but not as often. He did started doing Pump fakes in the Preseason and it got us a lot of turnovers and bad plays. travelings 3 seconds. And now he is pump faking for everything even inside the paint. Oh and don't forget his fade aways n flat shots.

    the Back spams is an excuse from the last 2 games but not for the rest of the games of this season. Plus if he is hurt he shouldn't play. He is just hurting the team then.

    At this point Parsons seems like a glorified Landry Fields. Can't shoot, only good for some layups and rebounds.

    If you look at Parsons shot chart from last year, he is a good shooter from straight away and the baseline, but not from the wings. This year it seems like all of his shots are coming from the wings.

    wow 9 games into the season. Parsons isn't having a great season thus far but wow he's played well in the last few games and will get back in form.
