It appears Parsons is done as a Grizzly and they are looking for a trade partner. With his 25 mil owed next year it appears he will become a stretch candidate and then put on waivers rather than find a trade partner. If waived anyone interested?
the pathetic thing about that is that if Parsons hadn't said no to Olshey, that albatross deal would be Portland's problem
That was the point of my post as I don't see any team taking his contract so it would be a waiver and then signed to a min contract. Low cost and no risk. The guy is still a good shooter.
No. But I think theyd rather take the extra $15M hit next off-season instead of a $10M hit for the next four off-seasons.
I'm not so sure about that. There were reports that Portland pulled their offer after looking over the medicals.
I'd probably still do Leonard, Turner, and Swanigan for Parsons and some future draft compensation. Not because I want Parsons or think he'd be useful but it does save us some money and frees up two roster spots.
The guy cannot stay healthy so no reason to trade for him. I don't see Olshey interested in him even he gets bought out.
