smooth transition????!?!? Do you know what they used to call him in phoenix his first year and a half? tragic. And thats when he kept turning the ball over, guy literally could not bring the ball up that court. He has improved since then but it is amazing how little people know and how much they assume.
He is like the ricky rubio of glorious yugoslav? Something tells me that if Goran's shot isn't falling, he will find ways to help out the Rockets by driving and looking for shooters, rebounding or simply playing, dare I say it...Defense.
Thanks. I am familiar with Defensive Rating. It is not a particularly good statistic for assessing a player's individual defensive capabilities. Its more of a very high-level estimate of his impact, based on defensive rebounds, blocks, steals, fouls, and how good/bad his team is defensively. I haven't watched Dragic very closely, so I can't say if he's a good or bad defender. But I think its unlikely he's as bad a defender as Brooks, despite what DRTG might suggest.
