The Houston Rockets were blown out by the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night, but that didn't stop former Florida Gators' star Chandler Parsons from unleashing the stare down on Blake Griffin.When you dunk on someone, which I guess Parsons sort of kind of not really did on Griffin, you stare them down. It's a basketball rule. It shows that person that you are so much better than they are that they don't even belong in the building with you. Score be damned, Parsons - a Rockets rookie - proved his worth and showed that to Griffin by telling him, without words, "THIS IS MY LEAGUE!" Griffin's numbers on the night would top Parsons', but it's only a matter of time before the former Gator takes the league by storm. That dunk was only the beginning. You have all been warned and now you are all witnesses.On a serious note, Wednesday marked a season-high in minutes for Parsons and he held his own. Solid outing for the rookie.
