Could it be that Parsons needs the ball in his hands some more? It seems that the few times where we've let him initiate the offense he's been able to make good things happen. JVG alluded to this during our game vs the Knicks on Wednesday. In Houston, Parsons tended to be the second ball-handler after Harden. In our offense, he's mostly been a spot-up shooter (And it hasn't been pretty, Bricks galore). Hopefully if we can get him to initiate the offense some more and run more plays for him he can begin to ease his way out of his slump. I also would like to see Parsons cutting to the basket some more. There are numerous opportunities for him to get easy baskets by simply cutting to the rim. And another thing is that he has to make his open jumpers. It's been so frustrating watching him brick open jumpers. Parsons please step up your game, man.
