    Dragic is massively overrated on this board but he's a huge upgrade over what we have presently

    he's overrated but like you said huge upgrade for us. and with that contract he's right at his value in the new cba. he could get more than ryan so maybe its a bargain.

    the trade would make gordon a trading block piece.

    No way Miami gives Dragic away like that. Almost too good to be true.

    Like the Lawson trade last offseason.

    Rebuild with Bev and Brewer? And I'd think you'd get something better than a 14th pick for Dragic.

    That was the possible reason given in the vid. Also, right after that, he mentioned that Miami was rumored to be offering DMo a contract & the Rockets weren't going to match.

    Dragic got his contract last offseason and proceeded to come into training camp out of shape.

    Print version here.

    I wouldn't completely discount it, especially if they know Bosh isn't coming back. Any team with a high draft pick is not very good. I fail to see them trading that pick for a 30 year old PG with a large(ish) contract. They would likely want someone younger or just use the pick themselves.

    This guy being an NBA insider at ESPN gives it some credit. At first all I was seeing was a video of a guy named 'Steven Rose' on youtube quoting 'Stephen Rose' from an nba rumor website. That's a tough sell. But ol' Tom Haberstroh has me sold a little more with his quote. Your article also points out why it all makes sense for these parties.

    I like what you're saying about the competitors out there. Why would a team with a high pick want Dragic? He'll just make you better and ruin your pick, fill out your cap and push the rebuild back.

    My only question: Does Dragic still have it out for us?
