...so I was one of those. At least I didn't double down once it was apparent that money affected him (even before the injuries). He no longer seemed to care about defense, setting screens, and blocking out after the big contract. And once he got hurt, it became a physical thing not just mental.
Well... I need some of that karma then, 100+ million for doing jack **** in the NBA is INSANE. I mean the amount of money is more than stars made just a few years ago for their careers and he's only 30. Just wow. But yeah, I don't want him back either, haha
There are 1000 basketball players worth developing at the end of your bench over Parsons, including Anthony Bennett, Jeremy Lin and whoever is hooping across the street from Toyota Center right now.
That is a very, very weird image. I may not be able to sleep tonight having nightmares because of it. Ban worthy? ;-)
Picking up Andersen and Morris should round out our team as well. Is Brooks still playing because he'd be the 6th guy we need. All hail Swift!
"It's a business" right? I don't blame him for leaving and taking more money, or taking Memphis' money when he had those injuries...and I wouldn't blame the Rockets for offering him the minimum if it made sense for basketball reasons. I did not like the things he said about Houston his way out, but if he can help Houston win I'll get over it. If I can learn to love Jason Terry and Austin Rivers, I'm willing to forgive Parsons. That being said, he hasn't shown he can he can stay healthy, so I don't see this working. If he can, Rockets can't afford to be choosy when looking for wings for the vet min. Take the best guy out there please.
How this scrub made $100 mil in the NBA is beyond me. I would take a flyer on dude for the vet min.... I aint tripping. He might be fully healed now...for once.
Karma sure did bite him real hard with all those millions of dollars. I wish Karma would bite me hard like that.
dude gets two ridiculous contracts in a row (from the mavs and the grizzlies), FULLY guaranteed, and you call that karma against him? If anything karma is working in Parsons FAVOR.
