Monday’s meeting with the Brooklyn Nets won’t be easy either as Bron and Anthony Davis are both sitting. On a more positive note, LA gave the C’s a serious run for their money and James dropped 41. He’s quickly closing in on Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s scoring record. Father Time is simply not a thing for the veteran.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He’s no star and is far from a household name, but the 28-year-old has been making enough noise to be talked about in league circles.</p><p>For his part, however, former NBA star Chandler Parsons isn’t buying in on the Watanabe hype train.

The ex-Houston Rockets star turned NBA analyst is adamant that Watanabe would not be able to handle the pressure of the bright lights during the All-Star festivities. In short, Parsons is confident that the Nets swingman would fail miserably if the league decided to invite him for the 3-point contest. Yikes.</p><p>To be fair, Yuta Watanabe has been one of the most efficient marksmen in the league this season. He isn’t attempting a high volume of shots from distance, but the fact that he’s currently draining 1.4 triples per game for the Nets on a 52.7 percent clip speaks volumes of his acumen from beyond the ark.</p><p>Be that as it may, what is clear is that Chandler Parsons has zero confidence in Watanabe’s abilities, particularly if it is tested against the best shooters in the NBA.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Before the Lakers’ 116-102 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers where AD only played eight minutes before <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-details-on-anthony-davis-illness-in-loss-vs-cavs-that-forced-him-out-after-8-minutes" rel="noopener">exiting with an illness</a>, LA won eight of their past ten games, including a statement victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on the road and a 55-point explosion from Davis against the Washington Wizards this past Sunday.</p><p>However, it appears one retired player turned pundit is still not impressed with the Lakers’ performances as of late.</p><p>Chandler Parsons, speaking on FanDuel TV, <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPointsApp/status/1600515223294685185" rel="noopener">said</a> that the Lakers are still not a very good team, with or (most definitely) without Anthony Davis.</p><p>“[They’re] not very good [without AD]. I don’t think they’re very good still with AD. He’s been really playing well, obviously. I think they’re dangerous in a playoff series if they happen to get there with AD. Without him, they have zero percent chance,” Parsons said.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">"This team is not the same without this guy (Anthony Davis) and I still don't think they're very good with him."</p><p>Chandler Parsons on the Lakers after AD left game with flu-like symptoms 🗣</p><p>(via <a href="https://twitter.com/FanDuelTV?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@FanDuelTV</a>)<a href="https://t.co/TgZumOA9m0">pic.twitter.com/TgZumOA9m0</a></p><p>— ClutchPoints (@ClutchPointsApp) <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPointsApp/status/1600515223294685185?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 7, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Parsons, who played his best basketball with the Houston Rockets and the Dallas Mavericks, had to retire early due to a plethora of injury woes, Thus, Chandler Parsons of all people knows how availability remains the best ability, and that the Lakers, despite Anthony Davis’ elite play, have to face the music regarding their star big man’s injury prone status.</p><p>“This is stuff that you kinda learn to live with with having Anthony Davis on your team. Even when he’s dominating right now and he’s playing great, he’s gonna miss time,” Parsons added. “This team is nowhere near the same without this guy and I still don’t think they’re very good with him.”</p><p>The Lakers may have to take on the Toronto Raptors on the second night of a back-to-back set without Anthony Davis, given the flu-like symptoms he’s been dealing with. LeBron James and Russell Westbrook will have to shoulder a heavy two-way load without their main man leading the way.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
