    I wonder if Parsons would have had a better career, and more self-awareness, if he was less handsome.

    I dont know how the grizzlies front iffice ever thought that parsons was going to be accepted by a city like memphis. He is the complete dicotomy of a grizzlies player.

    Crazy to think that Parsons went from being one of the best contracts in the NBA to arguably the worst. While Cuban was foolish to give Parsons the deal he did, the Grizzlies are just a laughing stock for the contract they gave him.

    Maybe if you put some effort into bagging chicks you wouldn't be a grizz fan trolling a rockets fan forum

    If Parsons was still a Rocket and got the same contract as Ryan Anderson, I wonder if he would get as much grief.

    I don't think being petulant is the best reaction... You say stuff like "I understand their frustrations with me, I'm just going to work hard to get back their trust etc etc", and leave it to your teammates and the organisation to criticise the crowd.

    Now they're just going to boo louder every time he bricks free throws.

    I don't know about that. I feel like he would be perfectly suited for the Shareef or Pau Gasol Grizzlies from 95-2010. :D

    Exactly. He is acting like a child, STILL. If you have to tell people you are working hard, you aren't working hard enough.

    If you get a max contract and somehow play worse than Brewer, you deserve boos everywhere you go

    I'm happy he's getting booed. The dude was dead to me the second he left us for a midnight-hour photo op with Cuban in a Dallas club.

    I would generally not agree with the boo's hes getting, but the way he ran his mouth when he left Houston, and in Dallas, plus just the general douchebaggery vibe he gives off on social media, I really don't feel bad for it.

    I don't think the boo's are only directed towards him either. I think its letting Memphis management know what a massive F up they did signing him to that contract. It's untradeable

    Like someone said above, Parsons could be more civil and be understanding of why they boo him rather than just being salty. I still can't believe how full of himself he is. Glad he didn't stay a Rocket.

    Memphis fans are jealous of Chandler's handsome because they are mostly unattractive BBQ eaters.
