JTB Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Chandler Parsons fits buds offense like no other. Dude is efficient as hell and though he's a role player he is easily a 16-18 point scorer on this team which we need now that Teague is gone except I believe parsons can do a lot better offensively than Teague under bud. I wouldn't be shocked if he could avg 18 like sap in this offense. and before you cry he's not a star or that he's injury prone let me just say that ...we weren't getting a star player anyways, his injury from these past two seasons isn't all that serious from what I'm reading more like freak accidents and if you want the Hawks to get a star there's always next off season when the cap goes up again but to get a star we have to make one want to come here therefore we need to look appealing to big names like Westbrook and other star names next off season. So knowing we aren't getting a star this off season it's time to turn our attention now to making our team deeper with very (not just good) but very good effective role players like parsons who has the ability to be a huge threat offensively. http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/p/parsoch01.html Trust the doctors: Sources say multiple renowned orthopedic specialists have given Parsons clearance to resume full basketball activities and expressed optimism that his knee would NOT prevent him from having a long, productive NBA career. http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/16481753/chandler-parsons-looking-forward-free-agency-dallas-mavericks Parsons want 22mil? Fine...that's the way this new era is going. He's a korver with way better handles and driving ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Peoriabird Posted June 25, 2016 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Why in hell would you max out a non all star??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misha Owens Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 4 yr 80 Mil is the max we should offer For Chandler he would blossom in Buds System if he can stay healthy . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBac Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 I want him on the team.. he's a very good player. It's just a matter of him being healthy. Would prefer him to Deng if it came down to those two. The max though? That's a little much and it sounds like most teams agree according to Supe's post.

Buzzard Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 I like Parsons, I like Batum as well. I do not see us being able to max out anyone this season; except our own player. Next year is when we will have the space. This season I think we only have about ten million. That may have changed some with moving Teague; but it is still not anywhere near max money.

I really did not know that. I thought we only had like 9.8 and that was before the Teague trade which may have freed up another 5 million or so. That is interesting!

At a $94 million salary cap, this means Atlanta will be at around $24 million in cap space. The projected maximum salary classifications for players with 0-6 years, 7-9 years, and 10+ years of experience would be about $23 million, $27 million, and $31 million per Albert Nahmad of HeatHoops (seriously a wonderful resource for Salary Cap insight) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Peoriabird Posted June 25, 2016 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 But it would be unwise to spend this money on Parsons or Deng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do have a lot more options in free agency this year than I thought. Batum is my favourite but everything I have read says he wants to stay with Charlotte and they are willing to pay him. Parsons injury history concerns me a lot. Injury contracts are poison pills that can't be given away. If I signed Deng, it would not be a max. Not even close. Should be fun to see how things move around! Edited June 25, 2016 by Buzzard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Deng, Parsons, Batum? Is this 2014? I feel like I'm an episode of 12 monkeys seeing some of these names. I thought Parsons was in a long term deal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrYellow Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 80x4 is the max I'd offer. or we can try a max deal with Barnes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
