Chandler Parsons: I was on my rookie …

Chandler Parsons: I was on my rookie deal and I was a restricted free agent. So this was actually when we brought Dwight and we did the deal. Basically Mark Cuban came in and he gave me a crazy max deal with a no-trade clause, a player option in the last year… As a restricted free agent, you kind of have to do that to get the team not to match. At the time I loved playing with James Harden, I loved playing with Kevin McHale and Dwight and I just thought you know what? Dallas… Dirk Nowitzki is my favorite player of all time. They got Monta Ellis. Everyone who plays with Rick Carlisle with this crazy offense, pick and roll, threes… as a shooter I couldn’t think of a better offense and I accepted the offer and Houston didn’t match. It was awesome. I love Dallas.
