What's new

The official countdown til Dragic thread.

You mean besides the fact that our team is way closer to actually making the playoffs, and not being in the lottery abyss for 4 more years.

Going to Houston would mean a smaller role in offense for him. Utah is one of the best fits for him.



gotta risk it to get the biscuit sometimes.

Plus, and I may very well be wrong here, wouldn't we have his Bird Rights and be able to offer him an extra year and more money than L.A.?
 
I think he is over-valued by us.. he is meh.

Fair.

I like Dragic's play-- particularly his ability to finish at the rim. But I get it-- we could already have our point guard in Exum. And, if he leaves, his only lasting impact would be worsening the value of our pick this year.

we would-- but I'm not sure I'd want Dragic for 5 years. Gobert, Exum, Favors, and Hayward extensions would be due around then.
 
The bigger max contract with 5 years and 7.5% raises is the only thing Utah has to offer over other markets. And as you said, I don't see Dragic as being a max-caliber PG.

Except that next summer, max deals like Hayward's and Dragic's are no longer near max deals...

If you are going to over pay someone, now is the time.

I'd strongly consider giving Wes Matthews a max deal this summer.
