    You got rocks in your head if you want him back. Dude is not the same player.

    Pat Riley would've had to start smoking flocka for this trade to happen...

    White side is ahead in all the advanced stats except for assists and steals

    If Miami is looking other places, couldn't that mean Daryl wasn't impressed with the package Miami was sending back so he cut them out and now is working with Atlanta exclusively? I would prefer to think that.

    I don't think Dragic is all that different of player from when he was with the Rockets. But, he's going to be 30 years old in a few months. That's really the big problem. Also, his salary keeps going up every year for four more years. Those last couple of years of his contract will make Dragic almost impossible to trade in the coming years.

    Morey may decide to trade for Dragic if Harden is keen on the idea. Morey has two more years of Harden. He's got to come up with something.

    I stopped reading after that. Heat cherishes the defense above all and Dragic, while being a below average defender in the past, turned the corner at that end. Your comparison to Harden's D is absolutely laughable and it shows you don't have a slightest clue what you're talking about.

    The "sensationalist" tone you're using to disgrace Dragic clearly indicated you're nothing more than attention-seeking w...

    I think it is a horrible deal for the Kings. Cousins has the most value by far.

    I don't buy Riley trading Bosh like that. Will make them look terrible.

    I am fine with Whiteside/Dragic/Anderson.

    I agree Dragic would be a poor fit, and I'm not sure we should be dedicating that much money to him. I understand people feel desperate right now, I'm just not sure it's a wise long term decision.

    I really hope it's Teague and Horford. Man, what a fit Horford would be for this team, and he would age well given his style of play.

    Dragic, Bosh, Wade, Deng(still there?) are either approaching 30 or over 30.

    They have to go after a deal like this

    Totally agree. I would prefer only Horford though, i donìt like Teague that much...but still, if it doesn't require too many assets ok, we can always trade him later :grin:
