Cuban just kicked Morey in the nads

With the Parson contract offer. Start the clock in a few hours, Houston. Better hope Christina Bosh makes his mind up fast, or LeBron does for that matter. Match, and you are hosed for a long time. Don't match and you just lost a big gamble.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Brilliant.

Houston will win this battle. Real stupid move by Dallas if that was their intentions

 

[bksballer89]

Houston can easily just go out & get Deng/Ariza to replace Parsons for less money and still get Bosh

Deng is getting a huge contact, and so is Bosh. Not sure Deng gets less than parsons

Their intention was to get a good player, and if they lose out screw over a guy who taunted Cubes last offseason.

I heard Deng wants 10 mill or so. Parsons got 15

They can bring him in on a 3 yr/30 mil deal an get Bosh. Deng is pretty good

It's fairly smart dice roll. But restricted free agency is bullshit. The NBAPA needs to get their shit together and try to remove it

Parsons would help them and all but that's too much money. He would actually be getting more than Harden if he signed (yearly) I believe if they match the contract. Dallas overpaid for him when they could've gotten Deng/Ariza for cheaper

Does Houston have $30M in cap space? They could resign their own, but can they afford both of those contracts on new players? Guess they still have to move Lin no matter what

One, they haven't overpaid anything until Houston refuses to match. Second, it could be only a two year deal. If three, then it runs through Dirks years. If Hayward is getting a max, then Parsons is too

 

[bksballer89]

I'm not sure. Wildturkey should know more about that.

All I'm saying is IF Houston can sign Deng/Ariza along with Bosh, I don't think they will really care about losing out on Parsons

Everyone been overpaid this offseason except for Dirk, Devin Harris, & Lowry

C'mon, I don't know everything! I just read more NBA CBA stuff than any sane person should.

True, but that happens every year.

 

[fordman84]

looked at Deng and Parsons. Parsons is 4 years younger, and in the major stats he averages 1 less rebound, 1 more assist, 2 fewer points. Parsons also has played in 400 fewer games.

Good thing rockets havent made any recent post season runs

Yep. The market just got set. Deng will get what Parsons gets... Or more.


Tweet that, Morey!

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Dallas ridiculously overpays for a position that they have zero need.


They get worse on defense which was already their problem.


How exactly did Dallas screw over anyone but themselves?

Zero need for a small forward in Dallas?

Sorry. Respectfully disagree.

Why should they? What's wrong with restricted free agency?
