My Parsons for Pau Gasol?

Standard 8-cat. Is this a good trade value wise? I'm trying to sell high on Parsons right now because he has had a great string of games capped off with an excellent recent performance. Any other good players I could try to flip him for? (value wise) What about Monta Ellis?

Parsons is Waiver Wire fodder..... There is no way any one would accept that trade, I wouldnt even recommend wasting time in offering it.

You could try for Hibbert or someone else who's underperforming. I don't think anyone's going to be stupid enough to give up Pau or Monta for him, though.

I'll give it a shot, Parsons is actually ranked significantly higher than Gasol is in my standard 8-cat right now. Not only that but Parsons seems to be catching his groove with the Rockets, while Gasol is looking like the odd man out in D'Antoni's new system. Didn't even play the entire 4th quarter yesterday over Jamison and Jodie Meeks. And you never know, last week I was able to trade Calderon for Ty Lawson.

Yeh waiver wire fodder was a bit too far, but that trade wont be accepted... Also you cant read that much into rankings right now, who would u rather, Jason Kidd (rank 14) or Rondo (rank 32)?

Fri, Nov 23
Parsons had a career-high 31 points (13-17 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT) to go along with five rebounds, four assists and four steals in a win over New York on Friday.

Recommendation: Parsons' previous career high was 25 points set against the Heat 11 days ago. He has scored in double digits in all seven games since and has averaged 3.0 3-pointers made over that span. The second-year forward does so many things well that he is getting a lot of playing time for the Rockets and has been one of the nicest surprises of the early season.

Parsons is definitely a good pick in any fantasy league. I would rather have Parsons to be honest.
