    Nash developed over time, look at Dragic's numbers as a starter this year compared to Nash's numbers in Dallas the year Cuban let him walk....

    Either way, I trust the Rockets to bring him back and to offer him more than every other team.

    It is not just about the money.... we thought Dragic was humble and nothing like Lowry.... well Dragic will have money issues...if he was to be low balled.... Issues coming

    All the Lowry fans are celebrating - too early to get a Leash for McHale to control Lowry.

    Let it play out and see what happens.

    Screw it. Threaten to cut Zoran from the Summer League team and make them Slovakian's squirm.

    Players play better if they are underpaid.... usually works that way..... Rashard never lived up to anything after the big paycheck

    Ummmm Dragic ain't even close to Nashs level buddy. Very good player but let's not get too emotional.

    I think Dragic is uneasy that Kyle is still here, Morey needs to lock this guy up $8.5mil for 5 years is the max I'd give Dragic if he doesn't take that then we tried.

    Really? When he was traded to the Bucks this season his numbers and playing time only dropped because he was behind Jennings and the Bucks had so many other playmakers, guards on that team.

    He's a starter in this league.

    ...and that was under the old CBA. With the cap even tighter now, that kind of sum is ludicrous for Dragic.

    Dragic will sign with the Rockets for less to have a chance to play with Omer Asik.

    BTW - I supsect the only REAL info we will get on these negotiations will come from the Slovenian side.

    Everything you hear in the states will be driven by his agent, as it should be.....

    that is more reasonable.....
    He is very good in transition and finishes well but he is expendable in my opinion

    Dragic is thinking if tha bum Asik is worth 8 million a year then i'm worth 10 million.

    He might be, or he might not be, he will find out by talking with other teams.

    Morey will have his hand forced one way or the other, remember when he had to pony up for Scola because he was going back to Spain?

    Once Dragic gets offers elsewhere it will set his price.
