remember when Chandler Parsons didn't deserve his contract?

You have to look at the deal in context. With underpaying for Dirk, having Ellis at a modest rate, the bench being assembled with low cost pieces, they can afford to splurge on Parsons. And when the playoffs hits and he's a major contributor, we'll see.



Hopefully y'all aren't the same folks complaining that Cuban let the 2011 team go. :sas1:


You mean this bench?

He's the third option with similar numbers as he had last season. And we would've spent that money on Born Ready if Houston matched... We had to overspend to get him. And if Dirk didn't give us a discount he would be having some of Parsons' money anyway. So them way I look at it we overpaid for Parsons but got a deal on Dirk. So it evens out :yeshrug:
:stopitslime:The way Dirk has performed this season that aint no discount. That's exact value and im being generous with that. So you can kill that evening out bs

His shot has been ass this season which really helps hardens MVP case. Rocket fans like to credit ariza for the defensive turnaround but I'm not sold on that. Parsons is definitely better than ariza IMO.

Rockets won't make any noise if this dude can't start shooting better

His shot has been off and on (as usual)

And Parson is not a better defender than Ariza :mjlol:

It's not just him it's Brewer also making a difference

Looking at them standings we haven't missed him much :manny:

If we had him we wouldn't be any better imo

I didn't say he was a better defender. I said he's a better player. I disagree the rockets wouldn't be any better. They would be better offensively and I feel about the same defensively. The rockets have a great record comsiderng d12 has missed so much time, but it's too dependent on harden. Ariza isn't shooting anywhere near as well as he did last year

Ariza and Parsons numbers across the board are almost even so if you prefer parsons that's fine

I agree about relying on Harden cause he's the only player that can create there own shot that and the basketball IQ of these player in the playoffs is what worrys me

Parsons shoots 46%; Ariza shoots 38%. Parsons shoots 38% from 3; Ariza shoots 34% from 3. There's nothing even about those percentages.
I'm gonna learn about debating hoops on here.

I meant pts reb ast Stl

It funnys on here that when bball fans on here debate ariza and parsons they only bring up scoring to put parsons over ariza but when these same jokers want to debate harden and thompson they then want to bring u both sides of the ball and all this other jazz.

Gotta love the coli:francis:
