I don't understand. Cant this be consider tampering? Free agency hasn't official begun yet right?

He would probably rather be on the Rockets with Dantoni there now and the fact that Harden will most likely be their point guard (if he wasn't already).


Beverley will be there PG if they can't find a better one.

Chandler Parsons is eyeing Lakers, Blazers, Grizz and Magic, per league source, and aiming for close to max money. Not going back to DAL.


Portland would make the most sense for him.


Yep. However the Blazers have $32 million in available cap space. Do they max him at $22 million or does Parsons give up less money from other teams that will gladly pay him max money. I think the answer is no to both of those questions.

Aren't they trying to trade Beverley?

It's been going on for years and the NBA doesn't care. This according to sources.

As @HowardBeck reported, Chandler Parsons' suitors at this point include Trail Blazers, Lakers, Magic and Grizzlies. List could expand.

Seriously, what changed in the last couple of hours? Did he already have his meeting with Dallas or something? Things are getting fishy.


Exactly what I was wondering when I saw the tweet

You have to get operatives working behind the scenes the way obvious violators like Miami, Dallas and Portland do.

I think any team would be dumb to set a cap at $20M if a player's max deal is $22M. That extra 2M represents 1.8% of the projected salary cap in 2017-18. Spend the extra coin to get your guy.

I know right? I would bet that if the Lakers would of some how been front runners for some of these big names and it was leaked that we had done this we would get (bleep)!
