Yep we lost Marion. Ouch!
Well, if Felton (huge if) can at least regain his best years in CHA form then Mavs came out ahead depending on who else they sign. But it will rely on Tyson staying healthy and Felton not being a huge negative. But on paper getting Tyson/Parsons is an upgrade (even though they lack the depth now).
They're done signing. That's why I was against signing Parsons to such an outrageous contract.
Did they get anything of value? CROFL Houston.
But really, it was a situation of damned if you don't, completely ed if you do match that offer.
Well, the issue is, while they were waiting, Deng was signed. Ariza was signed. Hayward was signed. Bosh was signed. Lebron and Melo were signed. Wade was essentially locked up.
That all happened before Dallas had a shot to do anything because of that Parsons offer sheet. They made their bed with that offer. Even if HOU matched, all that is left is someone like Lance Stephenson.
Even guys like Marvin Williams, Lin (who was available to absorb into cap space + would have netted a pick), Isaiah Thomas are all gone.
Clutchfans is of course bashing Parsons and blaming Les Alexander for Morey's up....
Dallas would be terrifying with a point guard. they're still going to be pushing for a top 4 seed as is
I wonder if there's any mathematical way possible that we could clear cap space needed to still sign Stephenson for 8-9 per. RC coached sjax and artest on the same team and he could keep lance under control. Devin/lance/parsons/dirk/tc is respectable.
this is a solid pickup... Marion was in his last legs and with VC gone, here's a young guy that can play minutes and produce... they still need to move Felton
15.3m/year for Parsons?
Seriously. What a signing.
So Houston lost Asik, Parsons, and Lin but gained Ariza? Morey going backwards. LMAO,,,,As long as the bricker Harden is on the team,,,they wont win .
Yep. We hope he lives up to that contract. But we have no money now due to his contract. Bye bye Marion.
wish we could somehow dump felton and wright for some real talent. i can't stand brandon wright he ing sucks. twig PF who can't debound, defend, shoot, or otherwise score outside of an open dunk.
Better than ending up empty handed though. I don't like this signing at all and I agree Parsons is grossly overpaid, but it's not like we had many alternative choices out there in the market. It's like, when you don't get Scarlett Goddess you wouldn't feel too disappointed to settle with a Lunar Goddess, even though she's overrated being called a "goddess" in the first place.
Wright should be movable but if we do that we're leaning on ing Sarge to be the backup C
Wright is solid imho, dude has length and decent offensive abilities. We're paying him too much though, if we could convert him & some fillers into some real talent for us like you said, it would be a good deal.
Stephenson may be down to Charlotte and Indy if he wants more than the MLE. Bet he didn't see that coming when he blew in LeBron's ear.
honestly brandon wright isn't any better. he makes some cool monkeyballer dunks but he can't even knock down a 10 foot jumper or defend because he's too weak.
what's his offensive ability outside of an open dunk?
The sookster is off on a tangent.
It's akin to Riley jettisoning Miller over 5 million. That's what this is all about.
Kinda smart of Morey to make Parsons a FA this year. Not.
Rockets continue to become a revolving door for young talents. Dragon, Lowry, Parsons etc. They're too quick to let their own talent go but willing to overpay the same guys when they get better, like Lin.
Morey blows tbh.
The Pimp
- "And if you think we're forgettin' about this, you're wrong. This is big time, baby."
- "Ace" - "Stand By Me"
Once again, Morey just thinks of young players and role players as assets instead of players with talent.... basically, they're used trash to him that he's willing to discard in an instant to chase the next free agency pipe dream, tbh....
