    Shouldn't this be directed at Harden?

    Okay Parsons just needs to STFU. Harden was seen and projected as an elite talent, that's why he was picked 3rd overall for goodness sake. I admire Parsons hard work to get to where he is today but he was never seen as an elite talent and he still isn't elite at anything. Parsons PR people need to tell him to simma down at this point. He got his big contract, now let your game do the talking.

    goodness parsons is an idiot. He thinks because he goes from houston to dallas he's going to be the superstar of the team? You have dirk and Tyson or are both inline in front of you, just like you had Harden and howard ahead of you here, and he thinks coming to Dallas he's going to break out and be amazing? LOOL

    i think im going to have to watch more dallas games just so i can see how he does.

    Lol seriously. He is going to get less FGA than Monta. And y'know, that Dirk Nowitzki cat. Yeah, we were really holding him back here.

    Durant said he’s not worried that James Harden has left for the Houston Rockets. “Russel (Westbrook) and I are the cornerstones of the Thunders,” said Durant. “The rest of the guys are role players or pieces that complete our team. We’ve lost some pieces and added some pieces. I think we’ll be fine next season.”

    Although I've been seeing the same sort of thing here for years, I still find it mildly astonishing that the stars of the Rockets, whoever they might be, continue to receive so much ****ing vitriol here... from fans.

    In that interview...Parsons basically gave McHale credit for his way of thinking. McHale told him to ignore what people say and just use their doubts as motivation. :facepalm:

    Are you insinuating that James Harden and Chandler Parsons are comparable in terms of talent level?

    Harden was on the national team and had a gold medal.







    And this is what Parsons should have said.

    McHale is exactly right. Is he suppose to tell his player "You are a second round scrub, don't try to be more than a mediocre role player"?

    Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili were second rounders. Should draft position let you dictate your aspirations?

    Do you come from a billionaire family? Should that dictate your ambition?

    The biased hate on here for Parsons is ridiculous and immature.
