Definitely one of my all time favorites. That playoff game against the Spurs will always be my favorite memory of him as a player. And I met him at the NBA Summer League many years ago and he was a super nice guy!

Goran was a great Sun. I still have a Dragic Suns t-shirt. Will never forget his blistering performance in the playoffs to eliminate the Spurs as part of our sweep, one of the most glorious Suns playoff series wins I can remember. It's a shame our bozo FO prioritized Eric Bledsoe (and later IT) over him.

We should never have traded him (for Aaron Brooks!) in the first place.

That first trade was weird…we also gave up a pick. I remember hearing and thinking we were getting the pick and while I was disappointed with the downgrade I was pleasantly surprised we traded for a pick and could see the thinking…then I realized we gave up the pick too and it made zero sense.

Yep, I have a Dragic jersey as well as a Booker jersey from the same year.

We should see if the Knicks would flip Precious for Eubanks. They need a center with Robinson out and we need an energy 4/5.

I see the angle from the Suns perspective if Azubuike continues to be playable, but I don't really get it for the Knicks. Thibs would still play Gibson over Eubanks.

Eubanks will play better with the big 3, but yeah, he's a vanilla

Mighty kind of the Raptors to make a trade just before playing the record-tying losing streak Pistons making two of their players ineligible. Detroit finally breaks the streak but the Raptors didn’t make it easy at the end. Really prolonged the game with fouls and got within 2 with a second left.

Drew was pretty good last season and earlier this season. Maybe it’s just a fit issue or a slump.
Let me dream, dammit!

This gave me a chuckle. Lebron lost a close game due to a foot-on-the-line shot being ruled a 2 after review. Then he roasts the officiating and review crew for eating a sandwich.

I don't know about the Lakers part, but this is interesting social media profile gossip.
