The Suns won't get what they want. The Suns don't make deals if they don't get what they want. McD is not going to want a reputation as a pushover.

I agree . Can't say I'd blame him if he didnt trade him.

I highly doubt they would be traded separately. If anything, Zoran will be a throw-in and teams that want to trade for Goran, will also have to take Zoran

To maximize return I would trade Zoran to a team on the list for a 2nd, then Goran for the best offer. Especially with how Dragic's camp has leaked info.

That would be interesting to call the teams high on the list and say "We will trade you Zoran for a pick, and with Zoran under contract for a year, you will have a huge leg up on signing Goran this summer." Then trade Dragic for best package.

Neither did Dragic's Stats

IT has been a loser wherever he goes. Dragic is a All NBA 3rd team guy who has been on plenty of winning teams.

The Suns wouldn't even trade a 2nd Round pick for Pau. You think they're going to trade Goran for scraps? Nah. They'll either let him leave in the offseason and pursue a S&T or buy him out.

Watching Dragic this year, I get the same feeling people had when Porter was coaching Nash. One writer alluded to him being like a "hummingbird stuck in a bag." I think those words describe Dragic this year and his frustration that we all should have seen coming.

Thomas crying about loyalty means JACK ****, every interview about the three headed pg he sang the praises but always slid little innuendos about how he thinkes he is a and wants to be a starting guard in this league. He is a cancer because he would never have started for us and even with Goran bailing still should have no chance at that if he stays. Make sure we trade isiah too... has to go as well as Goran and his sis.

Anyone who knows basketball knows its all about flow, chemistry and playing as one. Its not NBA 2K. Tatoos and headbands and chest bumping don't win games. Cool factor doesn't win games.

Playing for each other and a common goal win games. IT, Dragic apparently value 20ppg and 40min a night more than aligning on a goal and chasing it with happy happy, hungry hearts.

Did you see Bledsoe scream at Tucker the other night for stepping out of bounds? Bledsoe is quiet and unemotional mostly. But he has a fire in him.

**** this board hated on Bledsoe to no end because he stayed totally silent and let his agent negotiate his deal Like a pro.

IT chose to sign here. I cant wait until hes traded. He will be playing in China by 2017. Bank on that. Thats where his game belongs. He can be leage fing mvp and average a googol per game in m fing china.

Removal of pick protection
Randle OR (Jordan Hill + 1 future pick top 12 protected)

This gives Lakers players to improve from finishing bottom 5 anyways, Suns consolidate players into 1 or 2

If I were them I'd say "How about we just sign him with our cap space this summer and keep all our players?"

Didnt say they would trade him for scraps. If we get D-MO for him id consider that a win given the current state of things.

If we trade IT and lose Dragic in the offseason I'd be thrilled if we could get Wes Matthews.

Because he would sign for the team that traded for him and can give him more money and years would be the answer.
Depends how bad a team wants him.

Rockets won't offer DMo, we'd get a choice of Jones or the NOP pick and trash if we're lucky.

IT has been a loser wherever he goes. Dragic is a All NBA 3rd team guy who has been on plenty of winning teams.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiighttt !!! :noway:

The 5-9, 185-pound Thomas is a three-year NBA veteran who averaged career-highs of 20.3 points on 45.3 percent shooting, 6.3 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 72 games with the Kings last season. One of just six players in the NBA to average at least 20 points and six assists in 2013-14 . A career 44.7 percent shooter from the floor, including 36.0 percent from three-point range, Thomas is an efficient scorer whose 15.3-point career average has come on 11.6 field goal attempts per game.

Yeah , Isiah Thomas is a bigtime " LOSER " :lol:

Dragic is a All NBA 3rd team guy

3rd team huh ? Well with that being said these guys here were ALL-STARS ,Tyrone Hill , Dana Barros , Butch Beard , James Donaldson , Kermit Washington & Campy Russell . So what's your point ?

Id take the NOP Pick or Jones without question right now over losing him for squat.
