    After KD turns us down, I'd throw the max at Parsons and Conley, then fill in where needed.

    Conley
    Harden
    Parsons
    Dmo?
    Capela

    Love that lineup!

    For the price he's asking for and after missing two straight post-seasons, I'll pass.

    Nice compilation, but all it made me realize was that pretty much all of his greatest moments ended up in a losing effort

    i don't understand why CF's still have hard on for Parson. he doesn't deserve the max, betrayed us, been injured and didn't perform well ever since he became a mavrick. If he can't perform well under carlisle what makes you think he'll do well in our no system system.

    KD is too nice of a guy, he will come here for sure... if Harden straight up asks him, "Please Kevin, come to Houston and save me from this nightmare. You're the only one I can count on!"

    KD coming here is entirely dependent on Harden guilt tripping him here. He'll probably do it the entire summer to him during team USA. Remember, the last time KD reached the finals it was because Harden carried the Thunder to beat the Spurs in the WCF. Westbrook clearly can't do that because they are going to lose 5-1 to the Spurs. They only won one game based off of poor officiating.

    If Harden can get KD here, it's entirely possible WB will join him next year to reform the big 3 and Les will pay big bucks for that (if he's convinced we will win) unlike the cheap ass Thunder.

    Not that I want Parsons here, but he actually already did well in our no system system. That's why people still want him here. Not me, though. Those injuries are too much. And he has the same attitude as Dwight as far as wanting to be the main option in the offense.

    The funny thing is... Some Rockets fans are still ****ing delusional and think Houston is the place to be. It ain't. Everybody is piling on and making fun of the Rockets. Our reputation is toxic and smells like a steaming pile of ****. The Rockets are a ****ing dumpster on fire.

    Mark my word. KD ain't coming.

    Get the **** over it.

    Players are not making fun of the Rockets.

    However it is an extreme long shot that KD becomes a Rocket. Hell San Antonio is going to make a strong run at him.

    Conley fills a need for the Rockets and is a two way player. I know months ago he was a top target for the Rockets.

    Chandler Parsons simply isn't good enough to waste that kind of money on. He is a horrible defender, has had injury problems as well.

    If you want Parsons back, you should want Lin back too. ;)

    LOL, Conley again. Conley the new savior, the new great hope. Last year's great hope was Lawson who by the way put up similar numbers before tanking in Houston.

    Conley ain't stupid. He saw what happened to Lawson + we don't even have a coach.

    Conley ain't touching this dumpster fire. Mark my word, Conley ain't coming to Houston.

    Get the **** over it.

    I was so high on Parsons after his rookie year. He quickly became my favorite Rocket his first season here and maybe even the season after, James Harden included.

    But then his focus shifted and his "I'm so great!" complex arose, and we all know and roll our eyes on what has happened since.

    Sad thing is that if Parsons held on to his blue-collar defense he had his rookie year, while still developing his offensive game naturally, he would have been an almost ideal fit next to James Harden. James Harden needs else someone to play make, preferably in the SF or PF spots. Hence, why Smith last year and Parson's the year before was pretty effective as secondary play makers.

    But Parsons chose to cash out and just focus on offense.

    I don't mean to be rude at all bud, you are not being nostalgic, you are looking at everything with colored glasses. Chandler Parsons is NOT worth the max.

    There's a lot of players that aren't worth what they're gonna get paid. Parsons is one of those guys.
