What does this leave us with? Houston as the only possibility of getting back anything of worth?

I know right, if he was any kind of intelligent he should shut his damn mouth.


Yeah there goes all the leverage like I said (well what little bit was left).

Unless the Suns truly are saying we will keep you and dare him to turn the money down later.

I bet dragic's agent probably has something lined up with someone and he is trying slowly force us into that direction by eliminating teams on dragics list

What's crazy is the Suns are still 8th in the West. Yes, most likely not getting in but they're close. Media reporting like the team is a hot mess, but again, we're close!

Gambo actually specifically said Boston is out for both Goran and IT.

Please DAryl Morey

Be dumb enough to give us D-mo and a 1st round pick for Dragic and he won't resign with you.

This is the only way I'm ok with losing Dragic is if we net D-mo and the pelicans 1st

One person who I think is a quiet but good asset is Zoran. I would love to send Zoran off to NY or LA for an asset. If a team on that list gets Zoran I think they get Goran. Zoran for a high 2nd or a prospect makes sense.

This is a blessing in disguise its saving ourselves from investing 50% of our budget in PG's. We would have never ever been competitive doing that.

That`s very harsh to the guy who got his team to play one of the most entertaining games of basketball of all time. And the SSOL Suns needed just a lil bit of luck to have at least one ring. Ah well.

I suspect he's McDonough's "useful idiot".

Zoran is most likely a bench riding career scrub who got pampered here for having royal blood

We should take whatever deal is best for us. If a team not on his list wants to take a risk on him despite him walking after the year, then so be it.

Suns should take whatever deal is best for them even if it means trading him to a team not on his list.

Certainly not at this point after leaking his trade request out.

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

Gambo is the one of the biggest idiots in Phoenix sports media, Doug and Wolfley are the others. Gambo is so far in bed with Sarver. If Gambo says anything bad about players, its Sarver saying it.

I just want a decent return for Dragic, and whatever McD can get for IT. This season has put the Suns back in rebuilding mode.


Gambo is at least entertaining, but Franz is just a complete nitwit. He just parrots everything Wolfley says and sounds like a whiny bitch doing it.
