    Three max contracts with a supporting cast of Terrence Jones and Sisco Garcia.

    Must have really crunched the numbers on that.

    truth be told, houston shouldn't match Parsons regardless of what happens with Bosh... he's not worth that much money. its tough to miss out on a free agent and lose your own, but its just not smart to match that

    If Bosh signs, then they have to match Dallas' offer. Losing a valuable player like Parsons to a division opponent is a huge No. It will come back and bite them in the ass.

    If we were to go by the history of past dealings, its likely that neither of these guys will be in a rockets uni next season...

    Also, speaking of division rival, we traded Asik to N.O too...its turned into a giant cluster

    Sure, but New Orleans is not a threat. Not yet at least. Dallas OTOH, is quietly assembling a better team and the addition of Parsons could be of great value. They are a threat to Houston's hopes of advancing.

    As of now, Dallas is easily better. Carlisle alone >>>>>>>>>>>>> Milk Hair. if the rockets strike out and are relegated to the leftover FAs like Ariza, they'll probably be the 7th seed next season. I can see Dallas moving into top 5.

    Yeah Carlisle is a huge +.

    Are the Rockets really going after Ariza? Or is it Deng?

    They met with Deng today, but he's asking for too much so there is no way that's happening. Don't know why they're going after Ariza considering they overpaid the dud a couple years back and watched the disaster unfold. Stephenson might be a possibility as well.

    I'm sorry but not matching that offer is a GOOD move, not a bad one. 15.33 million a year for Chandler Parsons is a LOT. He's being overpaid by about 25% there imo.

    Absolutely bonkers for them to decline that option without having a contract agreed upon. Even if they didn't really want him, it would have made sense to use him in an S&T along with Lin and Asik so they could have gotten Love/Bosh without giving up the MLE/gutting their roster.

    Maybe they'll do that Josh Smith trade now

    Perhaps they had something agreed upon but then Cuban offered him more and he went Carlos Boozer on them. Either way, Morey's on the way of royally screwing things up. Imagine if they pull the trigger on Asik and Lin deals, sweetinging them with valuable assets and then LeBron taking his time to make a decision forcing everyone else to stay pat. Then he could lose Bosh and Parsons and be left with the capspace to severely overpay Deng damn!

    They did want him. The problem is LeBron taking damn near 2 ing weeks to make a decision.

    You mean like how he let Parsons out his contract early to get paid? Seriously, all you do is whine.

    Ready to admit that Morey actually is overrated and it isn't just "whining"?

    Wow - is this representative of general Rocket fan logic and comprehension?

    The guys didn't say that "no GM's" will pick up their phone. They said some, so the fact LA (who's been awful at GM'ing for a while now) picked up their phone does not refute anything they said.

    Also, with regards to the "raping in trades part". Ya, a contract that HOU so magically offered and overpaid Lin for now had to be dumped for their own first round pick to undo their original stupidity. Good call
