    But you loved him when he's playing for the Rockets right? What a flip flopper. You would make a Cavs fan proud.

    He's shown flashes of his rookie season's efforts from time to time. He loses focus at times, but you can't seriously put him on Har_en's level when it comes to D.

    I got a problem overpaying him though. Chandler got lazy on Defense, started to go on fancy shows, started to be the face of this this campaign

    Now that is getting paid, it is a risk. Overpaid players usually tend to drop in production. We will see. It is a risk for Rockets and Mavs.

    Agree in principle, but there is something to be said about playing with the best player in his generation.

    I think there are a lot of things we just do not know about. The Carmelo thing is odd, his agent even came out and said no decision has been made .... the timing of the Parsons offer sheet... the meeting in Miami without the owner or head coach....

    Quick question, lets say we strike out on Bosh, Do we have the ability to sign Parsons then ship him in a deal to land Love still?

    Let parsons go. Sign bosh if able, if not. Oh well. Keep that max cap room. Grab rashard Lewis or some other vets and play ball.

    Let parsons go. Him going there would screw them more than us. He's not worth that contract.

    For sure he likes Parsons but he not only overpaid him, he overpaid him way above anyone would overpay him.

    He is overpaid like a big man like you would overpay Thabeet or Milicic if you don't know it any better.

    Parsons is good for 14 points and his 6,7 rebounds but that is about it.

    That's the trade kicker in his contract with the Mavs correct?

    Can rox match and then do a sign and trade for Bosh with Lin? It would be the logical move for Miami if Bosh is intent on leaving. They have a ton of cap space and can extract a ton of assets from Houston.

    I personally don't think Parsons worth that much. He ain't that good a player. He's decent player but not the most athletic. Sometimes he got his shots blocked as a result. No way he's worth that much. If Dallas think they can screw us up by signing Parsons, I think they actually screwed themselves up lol. With that kind of money, they could have sign a bigger star than Parsons. It's going to be like the Asik and Jeremy Lin situation for Dallas and they will try to find a way to get rid of him soon lol.

    Cuban is sticking it to us. He's willing to overpay Parsons to knock us down. If we match, we overpaying Parsons and may not even land Bosh because we have to rush things. If we don't match, we lose Parsons for NOTHING. Either way, we are being screwed by his move. FK him

    He might get up to 18/6 with a really high usage, but yeah, he isnt an elite guy. The funny thing is that it is worth it for a team like Houston or Miami or LAC to overpay if they think he is the final piece... but he obviously isn't in Dallas...just stupid of Cuban.

    FWIW I don't think this is going to work out well for Cuban no matter what.
