Official Trade Thread: How to Trade Your Dragon

sunsfever68 · Post #721 » by **sunsfever68** » Wed Feb 18, 2015 9:44 pm

Anyone who knows basketball well could tell how Dragic's body language was on the floor he was so mad at his reduced role and Thomas and Bledsoe ball hogging.

thomas doesn't come close to the player Dragic is at full potential yet Thomas is jockying for more mins/touches than DRagic. I'd be pissed too I'd say know your role scrub get on the bench.

Bledsoe is very ball dominant as well and it's obvious all 3 guys wanted to be the man and there was no trust.

I feel like we need to call in Anthony Robbins or some success coach and get all this stuff ironed out and have people accept their roles.

Also, the altercation was initiated by Dragic. One of the Morri stepped in on another PG's behalf.

Bledsoe?

Bledsoe would tear Dragic apart.... as in a couple of combo punches finished off by being thrown through a couple of lockers.

Like Kerrsed said, he is classless to demand a trade, blast our FO in the midst of a playoff run. Those are the facts, no hearsay there.

The hearsay is that he tried to fight IT.

How IT plays and ignores Dragic and plays isolation ball i'd swing at him too

I can't stand Isaiah's play most of the time NOTICE HOW THE LOWLY SACRAMENTO KINGS DIDN'T RESIGN HIM

IF SACRAMENTO DIDN'T RESIGN HIM HE'S A GLORIFIED NATE ROB

Dude these are direct quotes from him.

Even if he's being Bill Duffy's puppet right now, he's screwing us big time by going about this the way he has. There's a difference between keeping it in-house vs letting your agent cut your team's FO off at the knees.

I haven't gone from "you're my fav" to "BURN HIM!" but this is a bit of a heel turn.

Check out the guns on that dude... Don't think he needs anyone to step in, and last yr it was OK with him and Dragic.
IT (or Ennis, but that doesn't make any sense whatsoever). So IT.

What a load of bull s**t. Since when have the Suns ever "swung" the ball or "passed" the ball?

Its iso central in the desert.

Hornacek stfu man.

I guess that's why they rarely get fouls called for them, because they rarely drive and just like to shoot outside?

Wtf!? We do just fine at drives, we just dont call off contact. I still haven't figured out why, just like I can't figure out how Noah is allowed to do illegal screen after illegal screen. :wink:

Are the "others" in reference to Bledsoe and IT?

That's exactly what it sound like.

Right now I don't know where we're at. IT makes sense because of all his "I'm da bess start me" comments. But Bled? hmmmm, you have to go back to the off season to find any indication Bled is forcing the Suns to play him at the point.

By that I mean, the whole off season 'break bread' debacle screams big ego.

They better not sleep until Goran & Zoran are gone.

The only good thing from all this is that the Suns are relevant for the first time in over 4 years. Suns and Dragic were trending on Twitter and have been talked about quite a bit on ESPN.

Almost every team's fanbase is now looking into Suns forums and Suns media person for tweets about Goran

if only we got this attention on better terms

I'm not saying he's better but for all the bad that Lance Blanks did, he never took it far enough to where our best player felt distrust in the FO and demanded out.

Not saying he's better than McD but something to keep in mind.

DaleyBlind · Post #734 » by **DaleyBlind** » Wed Feb 18, 2015 9:50 pm

I don't blame Dragic for wanting to leave, if I was in his position id want to leave too. Hes the best PG on the team and he is being forced to play SG... I just hope Thomas is dealt as well so we can have 1 PG who is the CLEAR starting PG on the team.

Didn't IT average more assists last season than Goran?

Goran is NOT our best player. You're clearly a fanboy.

saintEscaton · Post #738 » by **saintEscaton** » Wed Feb 18, 2015 9:53 pm

I feel like the FO finally has gotten a wake up call and realized that rather than attempt to salvage the inevitable wreckage, its best to let this ship sink and throw off board those who are not part of our long-term plan

Must be why I stayed here even when Dragic went to Houston :lol:
