Well, Houston's still in the driver's seat with Parsons, and there are plenty of ways for them to complicate life for Dallas, with or without Bosh, but I can't say I'm sorry to see the Mavs' pressing the action here. There are costs if Houston matches, but other free agents' agents are surely aware that Dallas' money won't be spent until it's actually spent, and Dallas is unlikely to stop negotiating with their other targets while Houston retains matching rights.
