For some reason I still think that Dragic leaving the Rockets off the list is a ploy to bring his price down. Dragic may want to win a championship this year and the rockets keeping their good assets would give him the best chance.
That would not be very wise of Sarver to keep Dragic just because he's angry at him. That's cutting off his nose to spite his face. Dragic will walk this summer and the Suns will get nothing. Now there's no reason to send Dragic to a team he claims he wants to play for(unless the proposed deal is a good one), but he has to trade him at this point.
It's getting close. Too close. What else did we expect, I guess? The alleged 23-in-the fourth quarter isn't the same mouth as his agent. Does he have some preferences? Yes, but only because agent man, who ThundaD knows well, wants to give him a brand. Here's to you back-to-back MVP! I don't know if this target is a nasty as one of the best PG's of all time. You know, the guy likes to reset his nose and play with one eye. The Suns are going to get the best deal for them, even if he has control. Control? Ha...watch when someone figures out that nobody runs a team on their own anymore. Where? There's a nice agent bluff. There are preferences, however, it's not necessarily the client, as it is the agent. We'll see. Brand? The only long-running brand is Jordan, right? Luckily, we have Morey. First option? Mehh....That's not IT. We still have our original homecoming targets, looking to help, and us vice-versa. No one wants to be sent to the cold. Lawd, you don't want your owner to send 4 of ya'll to Russia by mistake. 3-way? No...that's inappropriate. Well, yes, maybe, just for this. I'll apologize to the lady later. Doc mentioned something cryptic (yeah, I know, the pot calling the kettle black) about sands and cold, right? No idea on that one except: There's a rescue effort in depths of, well, a mile-high of snow. Fire sale. Melt the ice. Media Maniac cooled the hearts of his players. The relationship is strained. Guys want OUT. I read some of this, but consider that you may be drunk on love with someone. Take a step back, take that "love" to an AA meeting ( no disrespect on that one) and reconsider. There's a different prize. I'd be more excited if that were the case. I've met homie, before he was shipped out. We'll see what happens. Love ya'll. Clarification soon, but I've gotta eat today. -Cod PS...I just put on my vest. Ready for the messenger shooting squad. Love ya'll too.
The calm and quiet before the storm. This has DM written all over it...something has got to be cooking in his kitchen.

If the point of this thread is to get some insider scoop, it has to be seen as a dismal failure. Hours before the deadline, and you still know no more than if you had done something productive with your time. What a lame thread.
Agreed. That bridge is burned now. There's no way Draguc stays. Phoenix will not let him leave without compensation. And Dragic's representation has let out be known that he'll make no promises to any of the teams with assets to acquire him. If the rockets offer expirings + the nop pick only, Phoenix probably won't get a better deal.
Well in fairness, the Raptors, Hawks, and Grizzlies have pretty damn good records. No need to rock the boat. And the Spurs are the defending champs. The Clippers do need some help, but they don't have a lot of tradeable assets right now.
Obviously those destinations are being pushed by the agent. While "tax incentives" help the player, does this effect the agents pay? As cyber said they only get 3% on the salary anyways, the bulk comes from ads. Goran would blow up with deals in LA... Because he's all they have.
