    I don’t know. I think I agree with DD about Goran and Nash. Nash is obviously and unarguably better than Goran. I don’t think that’s the issue. The issue is whether or not Goran could be more hotly pursued than Nash. I think that is a reasonable position. I would say Nash is only going to be heavily pursued by teams who are in win it now mode that feel Nash is the missing piece. I would also imagine that Nash is only going to be interested in playing for teams that have that short term title potential. If a team does not feel they meet those two criteria, I doubt they actively pursue him. On the other hand Goran will be pursued by any teams who want a young potential all star PG. In a nutshell there will be more teams seriously pursuing Goran over Nash because there are fewer win it now teams then there are build for the future teams.

    Is "Goran Collison" putting the team on his back, tho'?

    6 game losing streak in the playoff hunt...

    He's the starting point guard for the team choking its way to elimination

    Once teams went zone on us and Camby/Dally weren't around to create transition buckets, Goran came back down to Earth.

    And so it was.

    He didn't play well at all if you watched the game. He looked angry as **** and was slipping and falling everywhere

    Was not his BEST game, but he has hardly slipped, what has happened though is a lot of the shots his guys were hitting are now missing and our defense has been really poor.

    Honestly the team looks tired, including Dragic, hardly any transition buckets.....no more push from him for early offense....or not nearly as much.

    Last 8 games

    FG%: 44%
    3P%: 36%
    TO: 3.5
    AST: 8

    8 games prior

    FG%: 55%
    3P%: 48%
    TO: 2.75
    AST: 8.25

    Fading all across the board.

    Not even taking into account his defense, which has been mediocre at best.
