    Morey's not the coach. He doesn't decide who starts and who doesn't. He may voice opinions but it's ultimately up to McHale.

    So overpaying for a player gets you out of mediocrity? I like him and want to keep him, but you can't throw money at a player based on a few weeks and your projection due to his height a quickness.

    See what Lin gets.

    It is more than a few weeks and players get paid on potential.

    lol its either that or give Gogi 10 million. Does Dragic derserve a contract in the neighborhood of what Rondo is getting( probably not). But what other options do we have

    It's called leverage, people. After all, this is a business for not just the executives, but the players as well.

    Plus, this is a "source," and isn't coming from Goran specifically. I'm sure his people are leaking things as part of the negotiation process.

    We might as well overpay Nash for three years and draft a replacement.

    I'd still get rid of Lowry.

    No, goodbye Goran. We won't have enough to sign Lee and Camby if we do sign Dragic to this big deal.

    I'm looking for a supermodel millionaire mistress who hates talking but loves cooking.

    Good luck Gogi, I have a feeling we will both be disappointed.

    Why is Goran not worth 10 mil a year but Omer is worth an average of 8.5 mil??? What am I missing here?

    Way more talented point guards than guys who can protect the rim and rebound like crazy.

    yeah but Dragic has proven that he can do something with his talent. Meanwhile Omer's had a torn ACL, broken collarbone and broken fibula already in his career. I understand he's got talent, but he's an injury waiting to happen and has never proved that he could put up anything close to worth 8.5mil a year

    His asking price for his services is $10 MIL obo....

    If he gets the full 10 I'm sure he and his Agent will be be stoked but I'm sure they would settle for around $8 million.

    No greedy ass agent is going to lowball their client's services especially when they're paid on a %tage basis.
