    The best part of this is that they could have kept Parsons for a pittance for one more year at least, but they opted to make him a free agent, presumably to free up as much cap space as possible. And now they're about to make him very, very rich, and take up a hell of a lot more cap space.

    When Houston didn't get Bosh, that's as good as everyone in the western conference getting Bosh. Morey failing just raised 14 teams' offseason grades up one.

    Another tidbit. Houston will not have cap space next summer.

    Well they really didn't have much cap space this summer.

    Still plenty of players out there for Houston to get, but they are under the gun with the Parsons situation. Maybe they go after Deng?

    This is what happens when you try and hit a homer every offseason. Shit ain't work like that. Every team in the west needs to send a gift basket to Bosh.

    If they match the parsons deal, they won't have much room to do anything.

    They need to go after depth if they're smart. get 2-3 good players on decent contracts.

    They have to move quick that's for sure. They should go after guys like Ryan Kelly, Marvin Williams, Michael Beasley, etc ASAP to bolster their bench.

    Is Houston the third best team in Texas?

    They gotta overpay someone! If Morey's big coup this offseason is signing Parsons for 15 million a year and dumping their bench, he's gonna be sweating bullets.
