we essentially replaced Parsons with the same player at a cheaper price....

I'm telling ya'll, Morey knows his shit...

Problem for Houston is that they really haven't gotten any better and won't be better than the Spurs, Thunder, or even Clippers. With up and coming teams like Golden State and the Blazers, I'd still be a little disappointed if I were a Rockets fan. They did some good financial maneuvering but they won't contend yet again.

I don't know if they could d much better, but they essentially struck out on everything, just like my Mavs.

Just heard on the radio Parsons was a restricted free agent and the Rockets had an avenue to keep him at $965k when the season ended. Their stupidity allowed teams to offer him huge money and they ended up losing him for nothing anyway.

If their concern was losing him for nothing, at least that could have happened next season.

If this is true, terrible move by the Rockets and they are the big losers of the offseason.

There was a team option to keep him at $965k, which they failed to do and now lost him for nothing.

Morey wasn't smart if that's the case.

this is the only thing I'm gonna miss about Lin - the fact that he's such a personable person and is always freaking hilarious......

I don't so much mind losing with Lin but losing Parsons just pisses me off! Not only did we have the chance to sign him and failed but now hes going to playing for one of our Texas rivals. Smh just poor management.
