It's not a lottery pick. It's not in the lottery. If it wins the lottery it doesn't transfer therefore you don't have upside it's not a lottery pick. Top 4-14 is more accurate as the lottery only determines 1, 2, and 3
To expand on this point... the Rockets have the defense. They need to improve on offense. Dragic provides exactly what the Rockets lack. Somebody who can get to the rim and finish or go to the line. He can also shoot the 3. He can provide relief to Harden. I don't even know why I'm talking about Dragic. It's probably a long shot. But it's obvious he'd be a good fit.
Duy Ngyuen from Phoenix is followed after Houston Rockets. Therefore most recent wins out first, Dragic stays.
I generally agree about these and other points you make. Harden will remain the focal point of the team's offense when he's on the floor, but the presence of a Dragic would reduce so much of Harden's burden. Maybe, MAYBE, MAYBE, MAYBE McHale will quit playing Harden so many minutes. So far it's been a necessity. Dragic or another such point guard is the only scenario I see that would get the coach to reduce Harden's workload from 38 mpg to, say, 35; McHale's m.o. has been to ride his stars to save-his-job wins (and watch the team throw away wins at the end of the season when the stars break down). Naturally this all comes down to "which point guard will Phoenix (be able to) trade (for a good deal)?" We don't need Thomas; we have him already, much cheaper, an Isiah of our own. Do they trade Goran (probably a fan favorite) or made-them-sweat, made-them-pay-up, made-them-get-Isaiah-Thomas-just-in-case Eric Bledsoe?
goran dragic probably has a friend or assistant run his twitter for him and they decided to troll us. would love to have him back though!
I'm trying not to get hopeful at all. LOL. It is interesting that he hasn't played the last couple of games, though.
I'm sure he'd want to start. Bev would just need to sub in fairly early... Gogi would be sort of a waste if his minutes weren't pretty staggered with Harden's.
