That's what I was thinking. Morey's got one helluva sales pitch to make to the guy. BTW, less than 24 hours til the trade deadline.
That'sa very nice deal exceptyou need to remove Afflalo and Rockets need to eat Perkins. But very well done. Basically trading Jones for a player of need for the Nuggets worthy of about a 1st round pick.

Has has screwed them good, yes he has, and I'm amazing the Suns let it get this far. If this kind of animosity has been lingering, they should have dealt him weeks ago.
Why is Dragic so worried about loyalty and not being traded and stupid stuff like that? It's just business bruh.
Back in 2011, Houston agreed to a trade in principle where we would ship out Goran Dragic and other players to bring in Pau Gasol. The NBA (acting as owners of the New Orleans Hornets at the time) vetoed that trade and Dragic went on to have a great season with us.
Absolutely right. There some good stuff on ESPN today (INSIDER) that states that Dragic's usage rating was at its lowest this year (and last) when he shared the court with Thomas... a guard that is more "ball dominant." To be honest, it made me worry about how happy he'd be playing with Harden: That said, if McHale can effectively "stagger" the minutes between Harden & Dragic so that they both get extended time in the game to be "ball dominant" (while at the same time ensuring one of them is on the floor at all times) then it could be really effective. Do we trust McHale w/ that?
Sorry for the double post. Here's the link to the above quoted text: http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/12341719/nba-why-goran-dragic-wants-why-worth-money
I think those preferred teams were likely his agent's wish list. I doubt Suns would prefer Lakers / Kincks / Miami, they don't really have much to offer.
so nervous about morey pursuing dragic... i'm prioritizing lawson or knight...safe moves, instant contribution...no disgruntlement... also, i'm not digging the kmart news entirely...don't want him going to a division rival
The only cred I had was with vipers info. I don't have that anymore. I did make a mistake reading what you wrote and I apologize. That's my bad. I sent you something you should see in your User CP. You hired 2 people to replace me after I made 3rd team all nba... not cool. I'm not saying I want Martin here, but I do recall you saying Dwight wasn't coming either. Your nay-saying is getting increasingly worse. I'm not sure about how much Goran relies on superior speed and athleticism. I could certainly be wrong, but I see his game relying on angles and speed of thought more than being faster than anyone. I see his moves to beat players as anticipation more than speed. The waves... gotta love the waves of roster moves!
yea i literally threw some stuff together on the trade machine in 5 min. problem with eating perkins is that we def dont have the cap space for that
If Dragic is working off trusting front offices then I feel sorry for him. At the end of the day this is a business. I am sure he has to understand that especially if he is looking for a big pay day.
