    True. But still. You know how those delusional Mavs fans will pretend Wes is a star. We need to destroy them.

    Tweet might be fake, but those saying that isn't his account are wrong.

    Well at least Parsons got us Dwight, so I at least appreciate him for that. DeAndre Jordan would be a fool to leave LA for Dallas. Players just need to realize/understand/accept their roles sometimes. After 7 years in the NBA, does DeAndre really think he will all of a sudden develop post moves and become "the man" for the Mavs? I mean if "analysts" like Shaq or Barkley question Dwight's ability in the post and ridicule him of never learning post moves after 10+ years in the league, think about how much worse DeAndre is. Not everyone has what it takes to get to that next level like James Harden did. Look at Ariza for example. He obviously realized/accepted his role since his brief stint with the Rockets as the #1 option. If DeAndre Jordan wants to win, it's really a no brainer.

    Going back to the Clips would make me happier. Mavs talk so much trash.

    Parsons got us Dwight? Sitting down with him and having dinner doesn't mean Parsons is the reason Dwight came here. Dwight came here to play with Harden. Simple as that. Parsons shouldn't get any credit.

    Dirk should have let Rosas trade him to Houston.

    Jordan signing to Dallas only made sense because he's from Texas. Other then that the mavs are a bad fit. No stand out p&r ball handler to get him the ball.

    Okay maybe "had some influence on getting Dwight" would have been a better choice of words. Either way you can't deny that Parsons didn't at least have a factor in his decision to go to Houston, no matter how miniscule it might have been.

    I agree with this.

    There is no way that all of this is going down if DeAndre is going to the Mavericks, he is signing with the Clippers.

    I will give him credit for having a face to face meeting with the Mavericks.
