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

[Thebo]

I'm honestly not surprised this topic has been started. I'm not so sure how well Parsons even fits into Mavs system. Although I missed Nuggets game, all previous games offense seemed to stop when he was handling the ball. He isn't great at blocking shots or rebounding - other than what his size gives him. If he would develop his defensive game more, then he'd definitely be a keeper.

At the moment I see him as the only expendable out of starting 5 when you're looking for some mid-season trade to improve current lineup. I don't think that Mavs will let him go during off-season or that they should let him go. Unless you get a clear upgrade over him, I'd rather have him. He's a nice chemistry guy but he needs to pick up his game.

I just think that currently he's clearly the weakest link in starting 5. But I do hope he gets his groove back.
