    If the Rockets sign Lin as a SG to a 3 yr deal that's better risk than Gordon, re: injuries.

    I thought somewhere in the 9-10 million range would have been acceptable. I'm guessing that 8 million (as reported) was their initial offer, and they were willing to negotiate from there. I wonder how high the Rockets were really willing to go, because putting a hard cap at 8 million seems pretty inflexible.

    He's better than Gogi when healthy.. John Hollinger agrees

    Goran has only started 2 months in the NBA as PG, after being a bench-warmer. And wants to be paid like Rondo.. hahaha

    Dallas is cautious about chasing Goran Dragic with a big offer, league source tells Y! Mavs aren't as high on him as Rockets, Suns, others.

    Which still doesn't change the fact that they were playing without 40% of the starting lineup. Martin starts over lee for a reason, despite him being a terrible defender. He's better, and proven to be an elite scorer. It also doesn't change the fact that they were playing with absolute garbage from 2 important bench positions deep into a condensed season.

    Morey sets his price and that's that. Why do you think they sent him off and alled Lin in less than a day? Goran will wise up.

    I think you are right about the offer. I can see the Rockets throwing a Lowry type contract at him. For an UFA that played very well and I think brings more, though slightly at the moment, to the table than Lowry I think they are low balling him. Now will someone offer 50 million for Goran? Well then they can have him. But what he wants and market value might be 2 different thing. I am no GM but I'd say 8x4 or so is a fair offer that gives us a young good pg and allows us to trade Lowry which would yield us another asset...like another 6'9" PF.

    He is the better scorer, does not make him an overall better PG.
