    I consider it a given that Morey would pay him the max since this has become his market price.

    Clutch banned Progs and Drew. He lets Plowman and Doc post because he knows them to have inside knowledge.

    Doc may not have a great record, but he hears more things than we do.

    That's fine with me, I don't want a guy that doesn't want to be here.

    I hope if Dragic has made this clear that Morey will move on and not make the mistake of pursuing players that really don't want to be here like he did with Bosh/Melo.

    I know people think we NEED this trade but really all we need is just a decent PG and Dwight healthy.

    Lawson is said to be unlikely? If not what is most ideal to give up for him?

    This is and will always be the bottom line.

    He doesn't qualify for a contract anyway. Need to sign a few consecutive contracts with the same team before that can happen.

    Same with Knicks...Melo is going on the shelf. They are folding.

    The wild card here is Miami. Dragic and Bosh could form a a good but, not great team for a few years, i dont see them winning a title though.

    Progs is banned because he admitted to being a troll. Plowman and Doc have no inside knowledge.

    Moreys got his eye on Durant...Signing Dragic this offseason will impede that

    So much dragic talk but I don't want to be all butthurt if he goes somewhere else. I want to hear rumours about more players. Address our weaknesses. Center backup point guard. Another potential contender year I don't want to see fall short

    It wouldn't mind seeing him in Miami. I think Wade would have to retire to make him happy though...

    I'd also like to see how the hell would Indiana get Dragic. Phoenix didn't want Hibbert before so why would they want him now? George Hill definitely don't fit into their plans. David West could but he's going to retire.

    Whoever is making up this pseudo list is full of ****.

    And you are going to just ignore the fact that Clutch actually makes sure they legitimate before they constantly keep posting on the board?

    Goran wouldn't help the Lakers because Kobe would drive him nuts & the Knicks have nothing but Melo left. It is L.A. & N.Y. though and at max dollars who knows?

    Harden didn't want to be here any more than Bosh did. The difference was that HOU was able to pay Harden the extra $30 million (ish) that the other team wouldn't or couldn't. The reverse was true in Bosh's case.

    The question is if Morey thinks Dragic is in the same "star" tier with Harden/Bosh/Melo. But if he is, you absolutely gamble on the star and worry about "convincing" at a later time.
