I didn’t say we won or lost the trade. There remains to be seen. Just kinda strange to bring it up while discussing Gary.
I don't care to document everyones opinion, so this post isn't a shot at you*
Depending on who you interacted with on the board, the trading on Parsons freed up so much cap space, so we could get or keep 3-5 good players over one great player.
Some thought Parsons cap hit would be that AAV, and therefore no space for any other player ever to be signed or traded for.
Q Williams, Gary, re-signing of Bland, Clark etc... all possible due to trading Parsons according to some.
Posters were convinced it had to be done, as he would commanded too much money to build a team, just ignore the FT tag to Pickens or all the small poor trades/signings for net negative players.
For the record, I'm not salty that they traded Parsons, but why they traded Parsons. To me, I will always believe he was traded due to Jerry's ego over the team best interest.
