Bulls, Mavericks Interested In Chandler Parsons 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Jul 1, 2014 4:24 am

The Chicago Bulls and Dallas Mavericks are interested in Chandler Parsons, who is a restricted free agent.


Parsons has been expected to re-sign with the Houston Rockets.


The Rockets could have picked up their option on Parsons for 14-15, but he would have then become an unrestricted free agent in 2015.


Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the Mavericks will be aggressive in pursuing Parsons should the team not strike a deal with Carmelo Anthony.

Well he's used to wearing red so he'd fit right in here in chicago. So if we don't get Carmelo, sign Parsons and bring over Mirotic? How much does Parsons want?

Seeing as how the Rockets are able to match any offer for him, he might be a bit pricey, I just don't think he's worth a max or even near max contract. Chandler is good, but not great.

At one point in my life, I was convinced Saer Sene was going to be our teams savior.

No idea how much he "wants," but most humans will take the most they can get, right?

I have seen speculation that teams might offer as much as 4 years 48M if they think that is his "ceiling" value, and that Houston might even match that much, depending on the Rockets' success/failure with other, bigger free agents.

Chandler is a top-10 SF in the right situation given his all-around game. Maybe "worth" 7-9M if all else was equal (it never is)? If he was entering the regular open market as an unrestricted FA ... maybe ~10M right now? But to make him switch teams as a UFA (edit *RFA*) he'd have to be overpaid

Sounds like another Boozer situation. Overpaying for a guy you don't REALLY want.
