    I'm sure a document like that has to be signed by both parties. We saw video of Parsons signing, so the Mavs probably haven't signed it yet.

    He also changed his Twitter picture and banner as soon as he signed the thing. Things must have gotten ugly at the meeting with Morey.

    Many things can be done, but won't be. There has been zero talk about a Bosh S&T.

    I'm thinking it's Chandler's Ego. Didn't want to plan 4th option 4th fiddle to Bosh.

    Now he can be the 3rd option and lose in the first round with Dallas!

    Harden got worked by plenty of point guards who were 6' too. Rondo / Beverly can guard anyone in my eyes.

    Marion is still a very serviceable starter if needed to be.

    He played 76 games, averaging 32 minutes, on a playoff team. His stats are great, his defense is still very good.

    Losing Parsons wouldn't be so difficult to swallow if we could turn him into Marion, and some bench players from Dallas. As long as we still get Bosh.

    About what I expected. You know if you go check the numbers you are going to find Matthews did nothing of the sort.

    But I will agree Harden can't guard SFs consistently.

    LOL, $46M. I'm fairly sure ego didn't come into play there.

    Matthews did have success backing down Harden in the post during the playoffs. It was very surprising, since Harden has usually looked at his defensive best when guarding bigger players in the post.

    Dude, a Bosh s&t is obviously the way to go one this one.

    If Lebron leaves Miami, Bosh is willing to walk to Houston, why in the hell would Miami turn down free draft picks? No way in hell they do that.

    The Rockets desperately need that TPE more than the Mavs need to retain Marion, Carter, and Blair. Blair would be their 3rd string center; Marion will not want to return as Parson's backup, and Carter they already intend to keep with their Room MLE.

    The Rockets, on the other hand, desperately need that TPE if they don't want a starting small forward with a $2.7M salary next season. So I expect that it will be the Rockets who will surrender a draft pick to Dallas in this transaction.

    What PG is this? They traded Calderon and have Felton right now.
