The Rockets chose not to match the Mavs offer sheet on Parsons.
If Bosh would have signed with Houston, the Rockets would have matched the Mavs offer sheet and Parsons would be a Rocket today. Because Bosh elected to stay for more money in Miami, the Rockets now view the Parsons offer as not being a good value......especially in future years.
When Houston let Ariza go, he had potential to become a solid player and the Rockets didn't have time to wait. If he can duplicate what he has done over the past two season, the Rockets and their fans will be very happy.
Lin was a wash and I'm happy to see him and his contract go. Not ideal, but the Rockets should have enough room under the cap to pick up any expiring contract at the trade deadline to help fill any needs they may have.
I enjoyed Parsons and hate to see him leave, but it's a little easier to watch him go at 15 million per season.
