    I predict a T in his future, he's been hanging on the rim too long.

    On this dunk it barely made the cut. A ref could have argued he held on.

    I like how he always stares someone off lol, this time the rockets' bench.

    Honestly, he really couldn't have let go of the rim any earlier than he did.

    Yeah, he is allowed to hold on to protect himself and the guy underneath him.

    The one on Griffin was hilarious because of the stare down and troll face.

    Looked like he was just wiping something off McGee's face - how thoughtful.

    Seems he gets one every game .... May be time to sticky a thread for Parsons highlight dunks .... instead of starting a enw one every day.



    I dont believe Parsons intended to ..... teabag McGee. He was just under him and he cant release the rim until he's outa the way or risk injury. Looks to me as if he was attempting to avoid him ....

    You can hang on the rim if someone is under you without being T'd up. Its clear that McGee is .... in the way of his safe landing.


    I dont think he was staring down the rockets bench but asking the ref why he didnt call a foul on McGee for shoving him while he was hanging there .... Had he lost his grip that could have been a nasty fall.

    The amount of time wasn't the "tech-worthy" part of the dunk. He swung his crotch around wherever McGee's head was. He even had to move his hand to the front of the rim as Javale moved closer to the baseline so he could keep him enclosed in his legs. The more natural thing to do would be to stay on that left side of the rim and just hang there until the player moved from under you.

    This is my last post on this, and it really isn't a big deal to me, I like Parsons. I just know that this boards would be talking about how classless this was if the roles were reversed.

    I want him to do this every game from now on.

    I mean, come on, he didn't just dunk on anyone, he dunked on two athletic, shot-blocking freaks in Griffin and McGee...and added something extra on top each time.

    The kid has balls (as McGee would be able to confirm...).

    So.. your point is.. that we are all 'homers'?

    Umm..

    On a Rockets forum?

    Ladies and Gentlemen, we have our next Sherlock Holmes!



    (But I do disagree with you.. the board would just be talking about how Morey passed on this kid to pick some scrub)
