Chandler Parsons is off the market

Agreed to a 3 year 45 million dollar contract with the Mavs.  Rockets have 3 days to match.

 

What is more interesting is for the Rockets to be able to afford Bosh, Bosh has to be signed before matching the Parsons offer.

 

Bosh is in quite the prediciment.  One thing is for sure we will know if the big three will be broken up before Saturday.  I'm sure the Rockets are putting pressue on Bosh to make a decision now.

Well, now that Parsons is off the market, I worry about our ability to keep Gordon. I believe that the Jazz were interested in Parsons this offseason. Might have been why they were willing to let Gordon walk, assuming they had a shot at him.

 

I'm not sure how much money would have been enough for the Jazz to walk away on our contact to Gordon? People joke about Gordon's value at $16/m. Maybe $19/m? haha I mean, seriously. At $16/m and Persons still on the market, I say the Jazz wait it out and loose out on Gordon. Now, that they are a team with nothing better, desperation mode has set in. I'd be shocked if they let Gordon walk. They pretty much are forced to match any offer now.

He's not eligible for more than 25% of cap.  A little more than 15.76 per avg

And if they do we are still a team with good cap space and a young talented corp ready for a playoff run again.

    • You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.
    • I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.
    • Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
