    Here are a list of teams and who they have at point guard. I did a quick analysis based on what the team has, how much the contract is, and who has real money to spend and can use a good point guard. New Jersey, New Orleans, Portland, and Phoenix are the 4 teams I'd be scared might throw bigger than mid-level money at Dragic. Is there anybody I'm missing? He'd be a nice upgrade for Atlanta, Indiana, Detroit and Utah but they've got commitments to either a young guy or a veteran making good money.

    Boston- Rondo
    New Jersey- Deron (but if he goes to Dallas, there's a landing spot)
    New York- Lin plus no money
    Philly- Holliday
    Toronto- Calderon
    Chicago- Rose
    Cleveland- Irving
    Detroit- Stuckey/Knight
    Indiana- Collison
    Milwaukee- Jennings
    Atl- Teague
    Charlotte- Augustine
    Miami- Chalmers/no money
    Orlando- Nelson
    Washington- Wall
    Dallas- Probably Deron Williams
    Memphis- Conley
    New Orleans- Jack (but there's a landing spot)
    San Antonio- Parker
    Denver- Lawson
    Minnesota- Rubio
    Portland- Possible landing spot
    Utah- Devin Harris (he's way better than this guy but they are paying Harris 8 a year)
    Ok City- Westbrook
    Gold State- Curry
    Clippers- Chris Paul
    Lakers- No money
    Phoenix- Landing spot
    Sacto- Isiah Thomas

    Its gonna be either the Suns or Blazers. The Suns owner is known to be cheap so I'm gonna say the Blazers will use a chunk of their cap space to get him.

    Indy would be a team I can see wanting Gogi because he's better than Collison.

    I'd be afraid of Phoenix. I feel like Dragic really liked living there.

    Don't see him as an upgrade over Teague or Brandon Knight. Think teams like Portland, New Orleans, Jersey, Utah, Raptors are more likely.

    I think New Jersey will make a strong push for him after Dwill leaves them.

    Blazers, Dallas/NJ (whoever doesn't get DWill), Phoenix, Toronto, Hornets are too messed up organizationally to be in the bidding but they should be. So I only see 4 really serious players. But that's 4 too many. All of those teams would be willing to offer Dragic 10 Mil + if he plays out the season this way.

    The Hornets have two high lottery PGs from recent drafts. That franchise is losing money and MJ supposedly wants to follow the OKC model and rebuild through the draft.

    no cap room. The teams people are listing are teams with cap room and the need of point guard.
