    Tell that to Carlos Boozer, Monte Ellis, Marc Gasol, Ginobili, and Rodman. Just because you are a 2nd round pick doesn't mean you suck compared to those drafted higher than them.

    So he doesn't get credit for trading for him then?

    Don't you get it? Thabeet is a higher pick with more potential! We robbed Memphis blind.

    I read an article today about Portland needing a personality to replace the likes of Roy. If Goran is REALLY stud potential, then I don't see why we can't trade Lowry for some of that Blazer ability:

    Aldrige
    Batum

    For

    Lowry
    Scola
    PPat

    Houston:
    Dragic/(Flynn)
    Martin/Lee/(Williams)
    Batum/Parsons/(Bud)/(Adrien)
    Aldridge/Morris
    Dalembert/(Hill)/(Thabeet)
    ( ) means gone by 2012 season

    That puts us in prime realestate to make a FA acquisition because we only have a tab of ONLY about $37 MILLION on the BOOKS!!!

    If ONLY Portland wanted a Leader that bad. :eek:

    I can't believe some people thought he could lose his spot to Flynn....

    He's a FA this summer, isn't he?

    Decisions, decisions...

    It's about consistency with Goran.

    You, good portion of Clutchfans and at least 90% of Suns fans.

    I remember how upset the Suns fans were when they traded Dragic and a pick for Brooks.

    Unrestricted free agent, probably going to lose him without any compensation - again....and we traded Brooks for him, someone that we would still have under control.

    Morey is slipping lately.

    Yeah, we really ran away with that one. But we need to trade Dragic, because some other team will overpay him in the summer (team like Lakers or Heat) and we will lose him for nothing.

    LOL. I can't wait for the haul Morey gets by trading him or Lowry. He'll sign here for cheap anyway when we guarantee him the starters job.

    flynn running the bench would be awful. dragic could be a starter in this league, and he brings the play of the bench to another level (along with lee).

    Still, still a proud supporter of Brooks,eh, DD? Dragic is 3 times the player that Brooks will ever be, and Brooks is stuck in China.
