Goran Dragic 

Post#1 » by Jazzy13 » Sat Mar 24, 2012 6:58 pm

I really like this guys game. Decent distributor and has good outside shooting ability. I think he would be a great fit here. Avg around 15/8 as a starter for the last 10 gms. He is good enough to start in my opinion.

The Jazz dont need a superstar PG. We just need a guy to give us decent distributing/playmaking and outside shooting. With the talent the Jazz have right now, a high priced PG will make it difficult to keep Burks/Hayward/Favors/Kanter if they all develop as we hope.

What trade possibilities are there to get Goran?

He's an unrestricted free agent this summer and the trade deadline is long gone, so we can't trade for him, unless it's a sign and trade this summer. He would be nice if we land him for cheap. I guess we dump Watson and he can fight with Harris for the starting spot.

I am all about Goran Dragic. Love the kid's game, and think he could work for us. I don't know what his asking price will be, though. I'd be willing to spend a chunk of the Mid-Level on him.

I like him a lot, he's a bit wild but he has a complete game and can still make improvements. I think we're talking full MLE money, and possibly more. I believe some team is going to offer him a starting job. Honestly, if I had to take a decision for the Rockets I'd seriously consider doing just that, re-sign him and deal Lowry.

Dragic is interesting. Starting with his big games backing up Nash he's been fun.

I don't think he'd fit into our execution culture very well. He's too creative to flourish in our offense imo.
In '03-'04, Jerry Sloan coached the ESPN predicted "worst team of all time" to 42-40.

Wherever he goes next year he'll be starting so expect him to make starting money, probably 7 mil or so.

True, especially since there will be several teams with money to spend.

I would love to have him on the Jazz and I think he would be a great fit. Always been a big fan of his game. One of the few guys out there who I think would fit well with our pieces and is realistically attainable.

I think around $6 million would be a reasonable asking price for him. I think he's a great fit.
