    He's too injury prone.

    He was stiff and laterally slow when healthy, a streaky shooter from the outside at best. He now makes $25M a year, hasn't made an impact on a team in over 5 years, has had about 10 major surgeries, and is more about being an instagram star than a top tier athlete.

    How drunk do you have to be to even entertain the notion of getting this dude on your basketball team?

    Talking about Parsons is like talking about the ex that cheated on you with your worst enemy. He didn't just leave on good terms. He left us for a division rival while drunk in a club. He then turned around and said the city of Dallas was nicer than Houston. F U Parsons. Hope he gets sued for every penny he earned in the NBA and is stuck selling used cars.

    Rockets drafted him.
    Rockets got him paid (by another team :D, but still)

    When he was with us, he produced. Spaced the floor, 15 pts per game. At the time his contract was one of the best (cheapest) in the league.

    YEAR SALARY
    2011-12 $684,146
    2012-13 $888,250
    2013-14 $926,500

    Good riddance.

    Drunk enough to realize his contract gets you out of a declining Westbrook’s one sooner.

    Being brain dead from a lifetime of drinking is not the same as being drunk for most people.

    Look I wasn't a fan of the Paul for Westbrook trade at all, but Chandler Parsons? That's the bottom of desperation. That's 'window-closed-tanking-for-lottery-win'.

    The ex that cheated on you, has bankrupted two more boyfriends since you, is now unemployed with $100k in credit card debt, has gained 100 pounds and now smokes 2 packs a day.

    He can’t shoot and it is getting worse.

    He needs the ball all the time to be his best, that is not happening here.

    Westbrook will lose his athleticism and be done right then.
