They drew up the contract taking into account how morey does business so he would be less likely to match. It wasn't to "screw morey" who cares enough about morey to do anything.
In this case he had the ability to match the contract and so cubes dealt with that. Cubes would yak at morey but he wouldn't spend a bunch of money to "get" at him, that's ludicrous.

Parsons better perform because he is pretty overpaid. Going from a #3 option on a more efficient team to a #3 option on a less efficient team. Maybe he starts playing defense again. Ariza can produce like Parsons has with the Rockets at half the price. This article here is pretty telling:

And don't take the Rockets trying to get Dirk too seriously. That was Morey just being an ass, especially last year after getting Howard after Cuban tried for a couple of years to get him. Then Cuban tries to get back with the Parsons contract. We will see who has the last laugh with that. |
