Mavs to extend offer sheet to Parsons

Mavericks pushing on an offer sheet agreement with Houston restricted free agent Chandler Parsons, league sources tell Yahoo.





With Houston offering Bosh the max, perfect timing to steal Parsons from the Rockets.

[Derka]

Rockets can go over the cap to match it if he signs, right?

Plus, Cuban said he wasn't doing any max deals for anybody this summer...hard pressed to think Parsons is an exception to that.

[SupermanOnSteroids]

i think Houston might have to renounce Parsons bird rights if they want to offer Bosh the max. meaning Parsons could become a URFA. Mavs could get him outright without fearing that Houston would match. A contract starting at $13/year would be reasonable for him.

yes rockets can go over to sign parsons...but i think bosh has to sign first

A) They would have 72 hours to match from when Dallas pressents the signed contract. LeBron will be announced and if he goes elsewhere Bosh will immediately sign the max deal.

B) Parsons isn't going to sign it until he gets the go ahead from HOU. They GAVE him 12M+ this year and he is a part of the team moving forward. He isn't going to screw them, especially this early in the process.

No it wouldn't.

A contract starting at 10-11/year would be reasonable for him.

Once Parsons is matched his cap number for Houston goes from 2M to 13M and any chance of signing Bosh, etc is GONE.

[navy]

No it wouldn't.

A contract starting at 7-9 million/year would be reasonable for him.
Fixed.

[HurricaneKid]

No it wouldn't.

Have you been paying attention? Meeks is worth 6M+, Hawes at 8M. You bet your @ss he is worth 12-14.

[oarabbus]

If that's what Meeks and Hawes went for, $10-11M sounds more than fair.

[SupermanOnSteroids]

if Luol Deng is looking for a deal starting at $12 mil I bet Parsons could easily get more than him.

brb younger
brb bigger
brb better shooter
brb better passer
brb still plenty room to improve

if were a gm youd suck an no one would sign with you:roll:

[masonanddixon]

I would LOVE for Dallas to get Parsons

[JerrySeinfeld]

parsons shud accept just to *** up houston plan to get bosh

they only have like 2 days to match offer or let him walk lol if houston let him walk theyd be dumb

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Mark Cuban trollin Morey :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

[AKADS]

If Parson signs an offer sheet his Cap hold goes from 4 Mil to whatever the first year of his offer sheet is.

So if he signs on the first day of free agency then the Rockets either loose him or can't get Bosh with-out a S+T

So unless Morey has already told Parsons to just wait and he will resign him Parson might be using this as a leverage against the Rockets. All he has to say to Morey is I want 5 yr 70 Million and I will wait till you sign Bosh or I sign a 4 yr 50 Million with Dallas and block you from getting Bosh.

And what would be his incentive to say "ok I'll block you from getting bosh?". I'm sure Morey had this conversation to Parsons already. Also, unless the Mavs are threatening to withdraw the offer (in which case they werent 100% committed to getting Parsons anysay), I don't see how this will be an issue unless something goes badly wrong.

Wrong. They have 72 hours from the time he accepts to match.

He's not accepting anything, he knows Houston will pay him. Like I said, he knows he's in Houston's long term plans so he won't do anything until Morey tells him to.

[Yao Ming's Foot]

Why would Parsons trust Morey after what he did to Ask and Lin? His word means nothing.

[GoRapz]

Genius move by Cuban :bowdown: Wish the Raps had cap space to do this

If they get Bosh it takes away his shots. If he becomes a 4th option his stats go down as well as his long term money. Parsons would loose a lot of time as a stretch 4.

yes they have 72 hours to match but the Cap Hold goes on as soon as he signs an offer sheet. Cap hold of 12 Million means less cap space and no MAx player and Parsons

Mark Cuban trollin Morey :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:


not gonna happen. parsons isn't going anywhere. why do you think there hasn't been a firm offer announced yet?



Lance Stephenson is no longer an untouchably toxic topic for the Mavericks’ front office.

Stephenson, the talented Indiana Pacers free-agent swingman with some significant character red flags, is by no means near the top of the Mavs’ board. However, the Mavs have registered mild interest in Stephenson recently, as ESPN The Magazine’s Chris Broussard reported.

“He definitely needs to be on the list,” a team source told ESPNDallas.com. “You’ve got to look at all those guys. They’ve all got warts or they’d get max contracts.”

Make no mistake: the Mavs will not outbid the Pacers, who have offered Stephenson a five-year, $44 million deal that he considers far too low. Dallas does not intend to come close to that offer but could negotiate with Stephenson if the Pacers move on from him. For him to sign with the Mavs, a source said, the contract couldn’t be too cumbersome for the team to move on if it deemed necessary.

But if Stephenson tumbles through the cracks of free agency, like Monta Ellis last summer, Dallas is a potential destination for him if the Mavs miss out on the superstars and Plan B targets such as Chandler Parsons, Trevor Ariza and Luol Deng.

The Mavs are operating under the assumption that they won’t land Carmelo Anthony or LeBron James. Parsons is a long shot because of the Houston Rockets’ right to match any offer for the restricted free agent. There is an anticipation that Deng will sign with the Atlanta Hawks, making Ariza perhaps the Mavs’ most likely Plan B target.

The 6-foot-5, 230-pound Stephenson, who averaged 13.8 points, 7.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists while leading the league in triple-doubles as a 23-year-old last season, is far from a perfect fit for the Mavs. There are legitimate basketball issues, such as his tendency to over-dribble and the fact that he’d be undersized as a starting small forward. But his potential negative impact on the team’s culture is the primary reason the Mavs had been so cool on Stephenson, who repeatedly rubbed his Indiana teammates the wrong way long before his controversial antics drew so much attention during the playoffs.

A week into free agency, the Mavs have at least become lukewarm on Stephenson. It’s still a long shot, but that’s a long way from the Mavs’ first stance against adding Stephenson entering the summer.

there is a wink wink deal in place. parsons is waiting for houston to sign a big FA and then morey can go over the cap to sign him to a nice contract.

[HurricaneKid]

Wrong. They have 72 hours from the time he accepts to match.

He's not accepting anything, he knows Houston will pay him. Like I said, he knows he's in Houston's long term plans so he won't do anything until Morey tells him to.

Yeah we are on the same page. I was saying there was no way he would sign any deal right now. And having Dal "offer" meant absolutely nothing.

First off, no contracts can be signed until the 10th. So I was saying there was time and things would be sorted out before too long.

Keep in mind people, HOU could have paid him 780k this year. Instead, they allowed the contract to expire so he would get his 11-14M a year early. Some people here are saying he should leverage the Rockets. It makes no sense.

[HurricaneKid]

Why would Parsons trust Morey after what he did to Ask and Lin? His word means nothing.

Because Morey ripped up his 780k deal so he could get 11-14M THIS YEAR instead of having to wait until next year.

[Nastradamus]

Lol at Parsons getting 7-9 mil when Frye got 8
