    Good look Goran. Take it easy on Lin when you play us. No need to make us feel worse:(

    Whoa whoa, whoa...

    2:12 mark. Am I the only one hearing this? The owner saying that they traded him "for a first round pick" and then re-signing him two years later was a "brilliant move".

    Um, you gave us a first rounder AND Goran for Aaron Brooks. Nice try to cover up what is a bit of an embarrassing situation -- considering they probably would have had to pay Goran less if they had kept him since he would have been sitting behind Nash still. Not so clever attempt to fool a fan base of a team that is meddling in mediocrity.

    Edit: He does go on to say it was a mistake to let him go, so I overreacted a bit.

    it's beautiful like the prodigal sons all over the nba...lin comes back to us. Goran to phx and aaron goes back to the team that really wanted him since that 2007 draft.
    Tears.

    Preemptive measure by Brooks. He knew The Dragon was coming for him.

    I miss Goran. Hope him all the best and more. I hope he stays relevant in the NBA for a long time.

    so who's got a bigger contract, dragic or lin?

    well, either way, i'd say dragic's a tad better than lin.

    Per year it's about even. Dragic got a player option for a 4th year and possible bonuses for making an all star team.
