I think Parsons will not be around after this contract ....

He certainly seems to play better when he has the ball in his hands more. I hate that, seemingly, he's always lingering around the perimeter if he doesn't have the ball. What I wouldn't give to see him making more cuts off the ball (not to mention making more of an effort on defense and rebounding...come on, dude).

I guess perhaps Parsons is the only one in Mavs uniform that is ball dominant and can't play off ball that well? I don't know where the problem lies but like I said, it isn't as if there are better realistic options out there to replace him with.

I think most people just complain about him having the potential and not using it to a full extent.

And thats the issue....he doesnt eant or cant play well off the ball. He wants the ball in his hands a lot but IMO he is not goof enough Point Forward to be able and runt a time or to hvae the ball in his hands so much. If he could play off the ball and find his opportunities, he could sill easily get 15 -5 -5.
