I don't want to have to pull up stats because i done already did that and some others as well to prove our points but people such as yourself keep thinking the way you do regardless.
You believe what you want, i know what i am seeing out there and I'll leave this right here for ya....and again reiteration coming from a source that is directly associated with the organization.
We aren't achieving jack **** with a pg who can only play at one speed and that speed is one that nobody else in the starting lineup wants to play at consistently.
Dragic has done NOTHING in his career to warrant turning over the ball to every possession. What don't you get about that? The Suns didn't trust him to do that, and the Heat don't either.
That's what I see, you can see what you want.
so now you're just gonna attack Dragic

Tough to retort a relating quote from somebody directly associated w/ the Heat organization, i understand. Perhaps it's a sign for you to open your mind to the thought that in actuality Wade's usage amount is actually more of an issue than you may care to think.
Even Eric Reid & Tony Fiorentino have made constant in-game remarks about when the ball moves we play better when they see that the ball is sticking, especially to Wade. Hubie Brown has made the exact same observation and has similar statements. Surely all Ira, Eric, tony & Hubie can't be all incorrect and you completely right!?
My views have been constantly reiterated by those directly involved with not only the Heat but the league. I think i'll trust my own judgement.
One minute Ira's an idiot, next minute his words have value being "directly associated". I don't put much in to that either way.
They've said the ball is sticking when dudes receive open shots, hesitate, then miss. Whose fault is that? Eric and Tony aren't gonna just say so and so friggin sucks tonight. Look at some of the ridiculous 24 sec violations.
If Dragic isn't on his one man fast break we get nothing out of him in the half court unless it's a spot up jumper for the most part. If you don't see dudes out there struggling to create for themselves in the halfcourt, I don't know what to tell you. So yeah I'm gonna "attack" Dragic if your solution is giving the keys to somebody who plays a style no one else wants to.
Wade's usage is the same as when Lebron was here, that means a lot of OTHER people are holding the ball, but you seem to think when he's thrown out there in the 4th down 10, that it's to just move the ball. Good luck with that.
