Dragic/Bledsoe/Parsons 
Don't do it mitch.
he'd be a great option at 8 million/yr. SF that can defend and shoot 3s. definitely nice next to Kobe. add Bledsoe in the mix and we'll be set.

They just testing dudes market. They'll likely match any offer unless someone throws him some silly money

Somebody is going to pay this dude $12 Million plus a year and hate themselves for it immediately.
Andre Iguodala, Nicholas Batum type of deals that cats never live up to. Let role players be role players bruh.
I dont think the Rockets would do this if they intended to keep him. They had him locked up for another year at under a million. Nice gesture to let him be free. If they match a deal they wont have money to go after anyone big when Asik and Lin Expire.

Please explain the logic of testing his market, when he was under contract for the next year for pennies?
There are several teams with holes at the 3 that could make close to max offers, this is a dangerous game from the Rockets.

It's just Moreys genius b
IIRC correctly parson is a 2nd round pick he either has a low option this year which leads to UFA next year.. OR they can decline it and test him now. i think they made the right decision because teams typically don't bid on RFAs.

Dallas and Hornets too.
Unless they got a star on deck, they probably gonna regret this one.

Hedging their bets. It's easier to lose a player once he becomes unrestricted. Can't lose a player that good for nothing

id assume theyre pretty confident in Melo or they wouldnt have done this
Parsons is not worth the max but some team will pay him
