Houston and Parsons, a restricted free agent, negotiated throughout day, but were unable to come to an agreement on a deal, sources said.
If the Rockets don't match, then they're legitimately idiots for not picking up his option.

Not really. The cap space is there. If Bosh decides tomorrow, they can sign him and then exceed the cap to sign Parsons (if they want to).
Yeah, I initially thought that his cap hold changed as soon as he signed the offer sheet (as opposed to when the other team matches). All this means now is that they better sign Bosh within the next 3 days if they want to keep Parsons.
They can actually have Bosh sign in 3 days and still be fine.
But how did Parson's only get 3 years when Hayward got 4 at the same per year amount??
Question: Do you think LeBron will have to exert more energy offensively teamed with Bosh/Wade or Kyrie/Love? Which pair pumps more oxygen into his lungs? Hypothetical question, I know.
Not only that, but they have Waiters and Thompson.
block move by Cuban. Parsons isnt worth 15mil a year in team/city/franchise like Dallas.
Hayward was worth overpaying by Charlotte, cause they wont get any FA quick.
Parsons wasting no time.
I think it'll be the same. He won't need to score as much, but he's going to still run the offense. It's just what he does. It's what you do when you're the best player ever.
just got real for Houston. I'd be PISSED at the Mavs for pressing the decision. I wonder what Bosh will do.
And Bosh is waiting on Bron`s decision.

No clear answer yet on Rockets matching sheet, but GM Morey had been on phone w/ agents for Ariza, Deng and Pierce today, sources tell Y.
Why would you be on the phones with those FA's when you declined the option for Parson's forcing the issue a year early? Did you really think that he wouldn't get an offer like this? , in all honesty, him only getting 3 years vs the 4 Hayward got should be a good thing. Makes no damn sense.
I wonder what Moreys' thinking or approach to this. Bosh isn't a guarantee but Parsons is (one of the best two-way SF's in the league; very underrated defender). I wouldn't let Parsons go to Dallas if Bosh hasn't made a decision by the last day to match. Take the double over trying to swing for the fence.
And, remember: a sign and trade between teams is only possible until a player signs an offer sheet. Afterward, can't do it.
LeBron James has met with Heat officials and has not yet made a free agent decision, sources told ESPN
That's officially badass. Dirk would do well to go there from a basketball perspective. But Houston needs to trade for Carlisle too.
WTF?! Houston offered Dirk the Max? They cant be serious right? Imagine if Dirk took it...
Sheridan is just putting out what he thinks will happen in case it does so he gets "credibility" back. If he's wrong, he knows nothing comes of it anyways. If he's right, he can try and take credit.
Too bad about the call hold RFA loophole confirmed by Coon that affords Houston the chance to sign whoever during the 72 hr window with only the initial cap hold in place and then matching.
Seems like it should apply to both teams, but it doesn't and that sucks.
