    At age 28 he is surely going to transform into a pass first PG.

    :p

    Are you sure he did not break into "Inside the NBA"?

    He will be commentating the NBA Finals in the future

    Can you imagine T-Mac and JVG calling the NBA Finals, especially if the Rockets make it that year too, nothing but PRO-ROCKETS commentary, ABC/ESPN would lose their minds and I would love it!!!

    And he will curse Harden with blood clots.

    He doesn't have ex-girlfriends. Partly why he's p***y whipped.

    Looking forward to Miami paying Dragic and Whiteside MAX CONTRACTS in back to back years!

    I am positive that Dragic is having questions about how he treated the trade deadline. Enjoy your summer, SUCKA!!!!

    No way would Morey trade away T-Jones or D-Mo plus a bunch of draft picks for a 3 month rental.

    He had a career year when Bledsoe missed half a season. Other than that he's just an above average scoring combo guard who's a poor defender. He gets a few of his FGs per game because he leaves early on D to try to get easy transition buckets which helps pad his FG%.

    He's not a #1 or #2 best player on a championship team.

    Dragic was dumb not coming back to the Rockets... he should have came back for a cheaper price too. Could have been the catalyst at PG.

    I lol. Dragic's decision process was all about how to make max money and being the man. Winning a champion was never in his equation. Just look at the list of teams he agreed to be traded to.

    Luckily for him, he will be earning Max money @ age 28 based on one good year. Heats invested too much in him to let him walk for free.

    He was dumb for not taking less money?

    People still don't seem to grasp how the new salary cap is going to change things. Anyone signed to a max deal this year will be nowhere close to a max deal in 2016.

    Wade getting paid 18m and bosh 22m, point i'm making is i don't think they can afford another 2 max contracts. BTW Harden is being paid max money which is less then wade's.
