Doesn't Jabari's expression in the picture capture every person's thoughts about this nugget?
Not at all. Parker is exactly the kind of BASKETBALL TALENT we need. A former high end pick that had added value as a bench scorer, because he can actually put the ball in the hoop by going into business for himself unlike guys like Powell or WCS that are totally dependent on others. Further arguments:He just turned 26.That is right. He is still fairly young, despite being around for ages. 15/6/2 with 1.3 SPG in 26 minutes per game for Atlanta last year. Led the league in dunks at some stage that season. Never played on a very good team. While I don't think he has the potential of Randle, he's exactly the kind of talent that eventually becomes an impact rotational bench contributor for a legit championship contender. Defensively he can be a mess, but offensively he's probably on a similar level as Aaron Gordon. UFA in the summer, so he would be ultra-cheap. Johnson for (partially guaranteed 2.4) Joseph + Parker works. Since we would take on some guaranteed money, maybe adding a low future 2nd can land you Ramsey or Woodward too. Or you dump Burke's contract.
