your 2nd point negates the 1st

No. Parsons has played a whopping 73 games and averaged approximately 7 ppg/2.5 rpg/2 apg the first 2+ years of his current 4yr/$94.4 MM deal and will likely be nothing more than a garbage time bench option the rest of this year and next if he plays at all.

Wall’s extension doesn’t even start until the ‘19-‘20 season so arguing his deal is the worst in the league before it even begins is silly.

Do you not understand that the deal is fully guaranteed?   That it hasn't even started makes it worse.

I mean if Wall comes back, doesn't have many more health issues and plays an All-Star level ball, then it's simply a pretty bad contract, but maybe not the worst contract.  If injuries pile up and he becomes neuvo Deron Williams and more of a problem child then yea.... it's gonna be hard to beat for the next 3 years.

Houston is 9-1 over its last 10 games, and Harden is shooting 41% on almost 14 3FGA per game in that stretch.  Shooting that efficiently on that many shots is insane, quantity alone.  Nevermind that almost none of them are the catch-and-shoot variety 3's; they're all pull-ups or step-backs.  Maybe this is the year that Harden's off-the-dribble 3's don't completely betray him in the playoffs.

Can you imagine a Bucks vs Rockets final? 100 combined 3PA every game? Would be an interesting watch, even if it were the lowest rated finals in 20 years.

The Grizz playing this right.    They know if he plays he will get hurt again.  Let him sit the rest of the season and he becomes an asset in the offseason as an expiring deal

Edited to add:  Fuck Chandler Parsons.

Luka and Rose are not all stars. Not even close. This just shows how fucking stupid fan-voting is.

Who out of Harden, Curry, Westbrook, Lillard, Derozan, Booker or Jrue Holiday is either of them close to right now?

I mean MAYBE Luka gets even hotter and sneaks in as the last guard selection or replaces someone due to injury, but right now he's barely scratching the top 10 guards in the West.
