Shannon Brown knows what it wins to win two championships. So does Jack Haley sitting his a** on the end of the Bulls bench with Jordan.

Get rid of Gortat
let Brown walk after this year - pay him off and take the cap hit
Get rid of Beasley

This is what happens when the team is associated in every single trade rumor, why are they going to play hard when no one knows if they will be here tomorrow or the day after, besides Dragic and those we can't move? Just in the past week we've been associated with Rudy Gay, Josh Smith, Shumpert, and now Al Jefferson and Hayward.

Doesn't help that our coach is pretty bad and we lack talent as is, but this current team just looks like it has completely quit on the season.

Dragic is as much to blame for this team's failures as everyone else on this team.

He's not perfect but I think he's been our most consistent and productive player for the entire season.

The article doesn't say he said anything wrong. The fact that he said it is pretty significant, given his personality.

I actually liked everything Dragic had to say - think he's spot on. And I didn't read any of that as throwing his teammates under the bus.

Seemed more like leadership. He said players are already looking to next season, said he's still focused on this season. I think he's right.

And he is our best player.

My favorite part about the article is when they talked about the great effort Dragic gives defensively.

Opposing PGs have lit up Dragic this season. He's among the worst defenders at the PG position in this league, yes even worse than Steve Nash.

Good defense is a team effort, if guys behind him isn't giving him the right defensive back up, he's going to get lit up by basic offensive schemes. I haven't seen consistent defensive effort from other guys either.

A lot of that hows to do with that whenever faced with a screen his help man defends it horribly (Scola, Morris) or not at all (Beasley).

Still, Dragic is wrong to throw teammates under the bus at any time. Steve Nash never does tha... oh wait, never mind. He threw Dwight Howard under the bus just last week.

I digress. Dragic should not let his frustrations out to the media. It cannot help the locker room when your best player is blaming others for failures.

I wish he stayed at Houston Rockets. He would have been top 10 PG still this year. Suns ruining their players ratings and so on. Everybody who gets traded or goes elsewhere plays better. No matter how good you can be, you can't do in this organization. Bring any superstar he will flop as well. Lot of bitching continues from the typical suns fans

Just saying. I was a suns fan. No faith in this team and its player. Everybody for themself.

Return to Phoenix Suns
