Chandler Parsons star potential!!!

A pull up jumper and added strength could get him to 21-23 ppg.

 

I love thepumop fake he's broughtinto his game. Players been really biting on it. I wish he would get free throws off it tough. He really be having them lean in, but jsut drives pass em.

 

Yeah And if Dwight Howard could sink his free throws he could get up to 30 ppg.

 

poor mans Scottie Pippen. he should work more at his defense, ball handling.

 

cuttino mobley+shane battier

 

was gonna say this as well. reminds me of batum
not too many 6'10 sf

 

Dwight is content, Parsons is not.

 

The only star potential for chandler is as a participant of dancings with the stars.
Or
As a boy band pop star

He will never be a basketball star though

 

Before any Pippen comparisons, I would go more with the likes of Josh Howard, Tayshaun Prince, Lamar Odom types as his ceiling. Parsons is different from the above players, but I can envision similar impact. I feel his raw stats might not get much better, especially if we pick up a post player and slow the pace down a little.

 

A less skilled and more defensive Gallo?

 

Who's closer to being a star?

Asik

or

Parsons

 

A more productive Brent Barry with a 3-pt shot.

Barry lead the league in 3 point a couple years. He shot 47 percent from behind the arc one year.

 

Bad grammar on my part. I mean that Parsons was the one with the developing 3.

 

they are the same distance away because in order to be a star, you have to have success in the playoffs. you can say J-Lin is an exception to this, but he still has his doubters around the league, and i guess Asik has had some playoff games, but nothing very special.

 

Parsons needs to just generally stay cooler in some situiations and has to learn to create better for himself ( for example if he´s in an Iso). Furthermore he needs to gain 10-20 pounds and get a good pull up Jumper. Automatic allstar if he can do that.
He´s just pretty good all around now.

 

He's white, athletic. handsome & is the 2nd top scorer on a playoff team. There's no reason he couldn't be an all star if the NBA and Rockets organization market him correctly.

 

18 / 8 / 4

is probably he ceiling, IMO.

At least he is in the right conference to at least have a chance to make an all-star team at the small forward position because if he was in the east he would have no shot at all because of all the All-Star quality Small Forwards in that conference.

Kevin Durant is far and away the best SF in the Western Conference but after that only Danilo Gallinari and Nicolas Batum are as good as good as Chandler Parsons in the West.

Western Conference Small Forwards:

1. Kevin Durant
2. Danilo Gallinari
3. Nicolas Batum
4. Chandler Parsons

 

too tough to do... He has to jump out of the building like a Lebron or hit clutch shots after clutch shots like a Durant to be voted into a starting spot

 

Asik is already a star in my opinion.
