The Portland series broke me, but what's happening in Dallas right now is worse. Genuine dysfunction.
His knees wouldnt hurt so much if he tells puban to hurry up and finish or do a better job and puban needs to be more chivalrous and offer him at least a pillow for his knees to rest on. LOL
It would have been more fulfilling beating them at full strength, but I never wish for any injuries, even for anybody who took multiple shots at Houston when he left.
I don't like seeing any player hurt and Chandler getting bang-ed like this is regrettable. But if it has to happen to someone I am relieved it's not yet another Rock.
Only Parsons' injury is bad luck. Everything else is just not being very good or making stupid personnel decisions.
full strength i get it. but regardless i want the rockets to drive them into the ground. sweep them and rest up while the clippers/spurs fight to the death.
Doesn't he have a player option after his 2nd year? I don't see him making 15 Mill or plus anymore. Surgery. Recent Back Injuries.
I feel bad for him, especially after all the horrible injuries our team has suffered this year. I also hate to say it, but he and Rondo being out will probably be a boon for the Mavs in the rest of this series. I hope he recovers fully. He may be young and made a poor exit from our town, but he has unused potential, and it would be a shame for him to be plagued by injuries in his career.
I really liked Parsons on the Rockets. I hate to see him get injured. I would rather him be on the court and take his beating.
Have no pity for the Mavs, have sympathy since the Rockets too are down two starters for the playoffs (DMo basically is a starter even though he wouldnt be starting right now) If it helps the Rockets advance and get more prep time and rest for the Spurs/Clippers so be it. It does suck for Parsons though, I hate injuries and dont wish them on any player. I wont lie though seeing all this happen to the Mavs - like being straddled with such a large contract and the whole rondo thing does put a smile on my face.
I still genuinely like Chandler Parsons and I don't blame him at all for taking the contract he is never ever going to see that type of money ever again. Get well soon and please leave the Mavs once your 3 years are done.
I really would prefer to beat the Mavs with him on the floor getting exposed for what he is. Now he is let off the hook to go through the offseason continuing to believe he a superstar in waiting and that his presence would have tipped the scales in the Mavs' favor.
He played 37 minutes in the first game and got a couple of fast break dunks, but couldn't do much else. He is as much a superstar as D-Mo is.( No disrespect to D-Mo, he is a good role player). Parsons is only slightly better than him. Parsons made us look stupid with his comments that he was the best SF in the Blazers series when Batum was outplaying him. Nothing has really changed since then.
Rondo is out indefinitely for a " back injury". His absence will improve Dallas' chemistry. Parsons' scoring is being missed to some extent, but Aminu is a far better defender and he got 9 points as well in Game 2. He can do even better if his minutes go up. I hope Ariza, Jones and Harden of course will do much better in Game 3. Go Houston Rockets!
He's already been exposed. He's a solid rotation player getting max money. It's a bad contract, and it's going to be an anchor around the Mav's neck for the next two years.
