    I would pay a thousand dollars if Javale would commit to the Mavs then back out 5 days later.

    LOL because a guy with a broken flat shot, poor pump fake, no handles, and bad back is obviously a first option.

    I hope you're not referring to Parsons, who has an *elite* handle.

    I think we should stop posting Dwain Price tweets. Mavs fans treat him like Chris Broussard.

    A source also stated Cuban was running around trying to find DJ's address so these media members need to quit with all this source BS until they have the facts 100%. Or how about Dwain Price from a mavs fan please stop talking......DJ picked clippers over Mavs, it is over with move on with your life and who cares why he did it. Can't change the past.....why continue to dwell on it. (did you see Houston reporters doing this last year with Bosh.....the answer is no)

    I don't remember seeing a lot of members posting that he was a great player. A great role player, yes, but great player? Yeah...no. Parsons had always been known as the all-around Swiss army knife type of player on this board with a fantastic contract. That's why the vast majority of us were fine losing him for Ariza when he got that huge contract from Morey. He is a good player and great role player, but he well never, ever be a star. He might crawl into the All-Stars on a down year due to his popularity and looks, but that's his ceiling. People aren't upset that he left. Players come and go all the time. People are upset with how the mouthy little piece of **** left and where he left to. First he acted like we didn't respect him, when we gave him a great contract for a 2nd rounder. Then he acted like he just went out and got a great contract that he felt he deserved, when he negotiated out of his contract via Fegan in some shady underhanded tactics regarding Dwight signing. Then he signed his offer sheet when players usually wait to see how everything is playing out. You can bet Fegan and Cuban were in his ear, shady mother****ers that they are. Lastly, all the stupid **** he talks afterwards.

    Rockets fans liked him because he was an awesome 3rd/4th option.

    Nobody said he was a great player because he's not a great player.

    Parsons was in the house with Jordan's family, friends and agents.

    "I hear this scream in the backyard and it's Cuban, walking inside with his hands up like, 'We got him!'" Parsons said. "It was unbelievable. I was so hyped, because he really is a franchise-changing type player. They don't come around very often.

    "It was awesome. His mom was crying. I think Cuban might have even cried."


    :grin::grin::grin::grin:

    Cuban offered to fly Jordan and his family to Dallas to celebrate. Fegan had dropped $30,000 to charter him a private yacht, complete with a captain and first mate, to take them anywhere they wanted to go for the holiday weekend. He'd done something similar for another client, Dwight Howard, when he was making a huge free-agent decision a few years earlier. Fegan flew Howard to Aspen, Colorado, where he holed up for 48 hours in a luxury cabin before he chose to bolt the Los Angeles Lakers for the Houston Rockets.
